HeatherInFlorida Posted September 4, 2006 #26 Share Posted September 4, 2006 That really isn't that long a walk, but from the ship it looks much shorter. The problem was we tried it on a sweltering day in July. I'm sure it would be a nice walk if the weather was a bit cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea King Posted September 4, 2006 #27 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Give or take, the walk is about 30-40 minutes .. it can take 10 minutes though just to get out of Havensight depending on where your ship is located at the dock .. if you're on HAL, you can just bet you'll be last - Heather and Sails make valid points .. the heat can definitely be a factor Total distance is about 1 mile from middle of dock to downtown (the flea market) if you're not a walker, suggest you think twice .. hot or not so hot (it never gets cool), a mile can really be tough if you're not used to it .. the good parts of the walk are no hills and beautiful scenery (provided they're not ripping up the streets) also keep in mind "packages" can add up and can slow you down on the way back of course if you don't shop, no problem:rolleyes: then again, if you have shopped and paid cash:eek:, you'll definitely be lighter in the wallet:D try this if you've never been: take the tax to town; then decide if you want to walk back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djptcp Posted September 5, 2006 #28 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Thanks so much for posting the Virgin Islands Now website with the cruise ship docking schedule. We were disappointed when we thought we were going to have to dock at Crown Bay. We like docking at Havensight because of the shopping in close proximity and I see the Zuiderdam will be there on Dec. 20th.
