Firstcruiseforus Posted March 22, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Our family of 4- 2 adults and 2 kids (8&3) will be docked at St. Thomas in early April. We are trying to decide if we want to wing it and grab a taxi and go to a beach somewhere or do a tour with a local company- we were looking at Godfrey Tours. I am leaning towards the 2 hour shopping, 2 hour sight seeing and 2 hour beach but I worry about the sight seeing my kids getting bored and the vehicle/roads not being save for my 3 year old (who wont have a car seat). Thoughts? Any advice would be appreciated! I'm a little overwhelmed at this moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted March 22, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2018 How old r the kids? If they're not teens, they probably will be bored during sightseeing. Probably best to go to a beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PORT ROYAL Posted March 22, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) Our family of 4- 2 adults and 2 kids (8&3) will be docked at St. Thomas in early April. We are trying to decide if we want to wing it and grab a taxi and go to a beach somewhere or do a tour with a local company- we were looking at Godfrey Tours.

Thoughts? Any advice would be appreciated! I'm a little overwhelmed at this moment. Megan's Bay. Popular - Plenty of Shared Buses from Havensight Sea, sand, gentle sloping beach, facilities, bed hire, food, drinks, floating toys, market stalls, souvenir store, hair braiding, cocktails and cold beer. Easy to get to and from. If it rains (sometimes does), then many covered seating/picnic areas to await the shared buses for the scenic ride back to the ship. (Same as outward) Shop at Havensight on your return (no time concerns and they would welcome your business) Edited March 22, 2018 by PORT ROYAL Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O2B@Cagain Posted March 22, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 22, 2018 If you are at Havensight, there is a Pirate Museum across the street that children really enjoy. They are also working on a Children's Museum at Buccaneer Mall, but I don't know when it will be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted March 23, 2018 #6 Share Posted March 23, 2018 The Shipwreck/Pirate Museum has something interesting for people of all ages, especially those interested in history. Great reviews on TripAdvisor. It would be great if Children's Museum replaced Hooters! Please tell me they're taking that spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms411 Posted March 25, 2018 #9 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Great news, O2B! That space seems small, but more accessible than previous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdnurs Posted March 29, 2018 #11 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Coral World and Coki Beach My grandchildren had the best time at Coral World and Coki Beach... The adults did as well. We got discount coupons on line and had a wonderful day. We started in a taxi van to drop us off and they even came back to pick us up at an agreed upon time. Viral World was nice for my then 5 yr old old grandson. He loved the animals and we got done pretty sweet pictures of him at the touch tanks.
