St. Thomas Port Questions

[plethera1]

We are cruising on the Wonder of the Seas and one of the stops is St. Thomas. I was doing some research and noticed there are two possible ports. One seems to be farther away from the main attractions on the island (i.e. Skyway, pirate museum, etc)

Is there any way to know which port our boat will dock at? Our itinerary just says Charolette Amalie.

You will be docked at Royal's port, which is the one farthest away from the main attractions. We just got off the Symphony on 2/11 and that's where we were docked because it can handle the larger ships.

@melissa723 Thanks so much for the quick reply. That's disappointing but understandable. I guess we can get a taxi over there but just wanted not to have to do that.

You're welcome! There are several open air taxi companies right at the port that will take you where you want to go. We went to Coki Beach for a few hours, which is only about a 15 drive from the other port, but it took us about 50 minutes to get there because of the drive time and a few extra drop offs along the way.

If you don't have plans, I'm going to recommend Fury Charters. https://usvisailing.com/. A little on the expensive side (don't remember what we paid), but it was VERY nice. We did 1/2 Day snorkel w/turtles. Of course that was 2016.

Thanks @sam_gordon. We don't have plans but our kids would love that. I'll definitely be looking into it.

We just got off the Fantasy, and we were docked right across from the Pirate Museum.
