Smokeater639 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Hoping i can get some of the great advice that everyone seems to get when they have a question. I will be in St. Thomas over the Thanksgiving holiday this year (Oasis of the Seas). Most of my traveling family will be snorkeling with the turtles, and BBQ that royal has in the cruise planner. I'm not much of a snorkeler, so I'm looking for something else to do. Nothing in the cruise planner has caught my eye. My daughter (27 yrs) and I will be on our own. Hoping to get some advice about what to do. We love food, so any restraunt suggestions? Distillery tours would also be welcome. Are most things walkable from the dock? Thanks in advance!!

FloridaCruiseGirl1210 Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I haven't been to st. thomas yet but my BF and I are considering doing Horseback Riding at the Golden Age Ranch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDaley Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 If you're into a beach break, Magen's Bay was beautiful and easily accessible by open-air taxi in the port. $10pp/way, also $5 adult entry to Magen's. Beautiful beach, no waves with a restaurant/bar and beach waiter service. Highly recommend packing a small float for ultimate water relaxation! stephenkurucz and Smokeater639 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is taking a ferry to St. John and going to the National Park, etc. Tried to do that once but our excursion was cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okgladgal Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Meagan's Bay is beautiful & you'll see much of the island riding a taxi to it. Ferry to St. John to visit Trunk Bay. Our favorite excursion is thru VI Ecotours. It's 3 activities include an easy kayak thru the mangroves, a hike (it's a walk) to a beautiful edge of the island then a short snorkel session. You could stay on the beach. Then you kayak back. Sometimes this excursion is on the planner. If not you can book thru VI Ecotours. It's also a short drive so you'd see a bit of the island. I haven't been since the hurricane. Smokeater639 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okgladgal Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 I forgot to mention a restaurant. We have eaten at Gladys' Cafe and loved it! Lots of shopping near there. You'd need to taxi to it. Smokeater639 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
