FLKerry Posted August 10, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 10, 2009 We are in port from 8:00 - 5:30. Can we go to St John, spend a little time, come back and still have time to do some shopping in town? Just want to make sure it is doable without missing the boat! Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostdart58 Posted August 10, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Yes.......but start early.....you would want to catch the first available ferry to St John which for you would be 9AM. Ferries leave every hour on the hour both ways.... I would then catch the 1PM ferry back from St John........this would get you to town shopping or Havensite shopping area by 1:30. I do not know where you will be docked...either Havensite or Crown Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLKerry Posted August 10, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted August 10, 2009 We are at Charlotte Amalie - not sure the dock name. I wanted to do St John first since that is more important to us and the shops don't open until 9:30 or 10. Thanks for the quick response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovemylab Posted August 10, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 10, 2009 In 2007 we went to St. John and then still had time to do some shopping afterwards. We did our shopping at the Havensight mall but we would have had time to go into the downtown area as well. There are some cute little shops on St. John as well. One of my favorites was St. John spice: http://www.stjohnspice.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandaleigh Posted August 24, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Last year DH and I were the first ones off the ship and took a cab downtown for about 2.5 hours. We hopped in a cab back to Havensight adn had pizza in a pizza place right there. Went back on the ship to drop off our bags, then took a ship excursion to St John. It was wonderful. We were the last ones back on the ship, but it was with RCCL so it was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
