I live in St. Thomas, this is pretty cool, that one is easiest to access from Crown Bay Dock & Havensight, it's maybe a 15-20 minute ride from Havensight if your ship docks there which is around 12$ for 2 to get to. Other beaches on St. Thomas include Magens Bay, Secret Harbor, Coki and more that you can easily get to with a taxi ride for 40$ or so for 2 round trip. Thanks for giving our island(s) a shout out. Another one too when you come back is St. John, for 2 it's 20 or 25$ to Red Hook and then 16$ round trip per person to St. John on the passenger ferry. Then another taxi on St. John will take you to any beach you would like to go to, popular ones being Cinnamon Bay, Trunk Bay & Maho Bay, but there are more.
Are there fees to go to Secret Harbor (Beach Resort) and use their facilities if we are buying lunch & drinks from them?
Thank you, just found your channel. Please keep doing these videos of low cost excursions. It is so helpful.
beautiful ship, beautiful island, thanks for sharing.
Just wanted to thank you for this video. Did the excursion with my family of 5 and would have had trouble finding it without this!! We loved it there!
I am so happy to hear that! I just did a video about Bermuda on your own from cruise port and that excursion was also amazing!
I was hoping the beach had someplace to sit and some shade!
Thank you so much for this video!! It is EXACTLY what we will do when we are there on April 17.
We have been there in 2015, great place.
Great job on this video. Thanks from Dinghy Jeff!
Loved the video I just wish you would have included some shots of the bar / sandy beach /chairs with umbrellas? Etc...
Wow...what a find!
Thank you for the tip! Honeymooning soon!
Thanks, we will be there later this summer.
Great suggestion thank you I think this is what we will do in 3 weeks we will be on Norwegian Bliss.
It is a beautiful beach for a bargain price! Let me know how it works out for you and hope you enjoy your cruise!
Gorgeous!
Thanks for watching, I am editing a Bermuda video so stay tuned for that!
Thank you so much for the video we booked a late cruise on Disney and all the excursions were booked so I’m watching RUclips videos to figure out how we can do it on our own.
Enjoy your Disney cruise!!!

How about in st maarten what do you suggest what to do and what others way you get around the island
Any idea how to get there from Havensight port?
Thank you so much. Do they charge for beach chairs and Umbrellas?
Try Hamilton Island in the Whitsundays.
Oh my , how beautiful . Looks like you made the right decision . Did St. Thomas have storm damage from the storm that destroyed Porto Rico?
It might have storm damage but I didn't notice it because the trip I took was short and didn't really look around the island. The beach was everything I could have wanted in a perfect Caribbean beach! Thank you for watching!
We are going there in Dec as well. Dec. 23rd Caribbean princess. We hope to make this trip too to St John. We also want to go to the National Park there. Do you know what port Princess uses? Thank you, Carol
I would look online because there are many Princess cruise ships so I don't know but if you get the chance to do this excursion, please let me know how you liked it!
How long is the ferry ride to the beach?
How would you rate this for someone with limited mobility? Love the video x
This beach looks beautiful. Great video. I do have a question, did u take the bus back to the ferry???
Yes. The bus only goes to the ferry and back so it's not like it's confusing or you might get on wrong bus. It's as easy as it sounds! Thanks for watching!
How often does the bus go to the ferry and when is the last ferry?
This is a great way to go to a beach ~ Thank you! I was wondering if there was beach chair rental there? Does it get crowded?
The chairs were free. I think the reason why is they make money from the bar if you choose to drink. It was not crowded on the day we were there back in September. I would definitely go back, it was cheap, easy and beautiful.
@@SusanInRealLife Thank you ~ I'm going there next week on MSC Seaside, 7am-7pm. Beach it first then walk around town later... Thank you for the great tips!
@@bryanwindrow7276 Please know that there are 2 cruise ports in St Thomas, Havensight and Crown Bay. Our Royal Caribbean ship docked in Crown Bay and that is where we walked from to get to the ferry. So if your ship docks in Havensight, it will be different. Enjoy your cruise, I have never been on MSC but am going on RC again next week!
We will going to St Thomas on February 27. I use a walker, do you think I can still get on the water taxi?
The beach is free to use .. and was there much fish life for snorkeling ? Looks like a great beach :)
We didn't snorkel but people did bring snorkel gear and were out snorkeling. It was a perfect beach and we are going back there in December again when we are on our next cruise. I think it's free because they want you to purchase drinks and food at their restaurant. Thanks for watching!
It is free just a 5$ short ferry ride from st Thomas. One of the best beaches you can visit in the Caribbean with everything you need to relax all day
Did you show the restaurant? I saw nothing but an empty beach at the end!
What time did you catch the water taxi? I'd like to do this next year, but want to make sure I get back in time. I don't want to be a pier runner lol.
I left the beach about 3 or so and had plenty of time to get back to the ship. The beach and ferry are really not far from the dock. Also, please note this is from Crown Bay pier so make sure your ship is docked there. Happy cruising!
I'll be on Oasis of the Seas, which I understand docks at Crown Bay. I'm an early riser, so I can't wait to do this close by excursion. Thank you!
@@Meela234 If you remember, come back after your cruise and let me know how you liked it!
PLEASE NOTE: I read that as of Feb 2022, the amenities at Honeymoon Beach are all closed for repair/renovations. No completion date was provided.
Thank you for the update. We'll be there in May. We're sailing on the Symphony of the Seas.....
I'll be in St Thomas with NCL Escape cruise 18FEB23, hope it us available then! Wish you showed the restaurant!
Were you docked in Charlotte Amalie?
We were docked at Crown Bay. Thanks for watching!
I'm just seeing you video, now I'm not going on Royal Caribbean (😔) however I do like you info as I'll be sailing on Norwegian epic, I'm guessing this still applies ?
St Thomas has 2 cruise ports and Harmony of the Seas docks in Crown Bay. If your cruise docks in Crown Bay, then this will apply. Thanks for watching and enjoy your cruise!
@@SusanInRealLife ok thanks I'll check and see.
@@SusanInRealLife sorry to bother again but do you happen to know how far the other port is walking?
@@Athanasius1975 I think it's too long to walk, I think you'd need a taxi.
@@SusanInRealLife ok, the epic is a big ship not as big as the oasis but it might dock there cause of its size. By the way I sailed the Oasis twice..you will love it
When did you go there?
September 2018
@@SusanInRealLife thank you!
How long was the trip to honeymoon island
About 10 minutes. Thanks for watching!
Did you see sea turtles there?
When in December will you be on Oasis? I will be going in December too.
First week! When will you be on?
Susan In Real Life! 2nd week of December. Too bad. Hope you have a great time!
@@SusanInRealLife hi susan, do you know what the weather is like here middle to end of january, as we are on caribbean cruise with msc seaside then . enjoyed your video thank you...
@@thomasjones6077 I think 70s to 80s - I think it's always nice there! Enjoy your cruise!
Question how are car rentals there? Going in December on the 3rd
I have been to St Thomas many times. This beach works well if you dock in Crown Bay. The busier dock in St. Thomas is on the opposite side of town at Havensight. If you dock there you must take a taxi to The water taxi. It is several miles and not walkable
Good point. We were on Royal Caribbean's Harmony of the Seas so it was easy and conveniet to go to this beach.
Do you remember which port you docked at ?- as I have heard there are two that teeth ships use.
Hi Cindy, Crown Bay. Thanks for watching and Happy cruising!
Teeth ships?
I need to know things to do for a single individual not as a couple 😉
You may end up doing the same things as couples. This place is honeymoon capital, it is set up to be a paradise for couples, however, going hiking can be an option.
Ferry not water taxi
