Walk from St. Thomas Cruise Ship Port to Charlotte Amalie Waterfront
Cruise Ship & Island Travel Gear & Advice -
This is how to walk from the St. Thomas cruise ship port to downtown Charlotte Amalie. Charlotte Amalie is the best place to buy duty-free watches, jewelry and souvenirs in St. Thomas. It's a safe and easy walk from the cruise ship terminal in St. Thomas. Please note that all shops in Charlotte Amalie close by 6 PM during the week and sometimes at 2 PM on weekends. Avoid Charlotte Amalie after the shops close, as it could be mildly unsafe. I've explored both St. Thomas and St. John tip-to-tip and have never encountered any issues with crime though. I hope that you enjoy this video and please share this video with others. Filmed with Panasonic HC-V100M camera in 1080P HD.
The Charlotte Amalie Saladoid Excavation Documentary
More than 2,000 years ago there was likely a thriving Taino community in the heart of Charlotte Amalie. In 2013 contractors began turning up shards of pottery and other artifacts during otherwise routine roadwork on Main Street near Market Square. Work was temporarily halted and archeologists were called in to help dig up what was described as a “major” find. Thousands of artifacts were eventually discovered in a relatively small area. A short documentary was later produced about the dig and the many interesting objects found on site. - - US Virgin Islands DPNR and the State Office of Historic Preservation

Driving around Charlotte Amalie + Scenic Views | St Thomas | US Virgin Islands (USVI) | 4K
Take a drive around the beautiful island of St Thomas and take in the breathtaking views of Charlotte Amalie, St Thomas from the island's best lookout points.
Scenic views featured in this video include:
View from Mountain Top showing Magens Bay: 4:22 - 5:10
Charlotte Amalie Overlook showing the Downtown of Charlotte Amalie, Havensight Dock and Crown Bay Cruise Port: 5:11 - 5:55
St Thomas, along with St Croix and St John, form the US Virgin Islands (USVI). These islands are located in the Caribbean Sea. The USVI is a territory of the United States so individuals born here are US Citizens.
The Virgin Islands of St Thomas, St John and St Croix were previously Danish colonies during the 17th and early 18th centuries. The United States then purchased the island from Denmark for $25 million dollars in gold coins.
Tourism, trade and rum production are the primary economic activities of the US Virgin Islands. St Thomas is most noted for its lush vegetation, breathtaking views, and pristine blue waters which attract roughly 2.5 - 3 million tourists a year.
The capital and largest city of St Thomas is Charlotte Amalie with a population of 10,354 (2010, US Census). The city is named after Charlotte Amalie of Hesse-Kassel who was married to King Christian V thereby becoming Queen of Denmark. Charlotte Amalie is known for its Danish colonial architecture.
The island has a significant association with pirates. Castles named after the pirates Blackbeard (Edward Teach) and the mythical Bluebeard overlook Charlotte Amalie.
Points of interest in St Thomas include Bluebeard's Hill, Legislature of the Virgin Islands, Fort Christian, Vendors Plaza, Emancipation Garden, Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) Memorial Park, Government House, 99 Steps, Haagensen House, Three Queens Statue, Crown House, Blackbeard's Castle, Estate Catherineberg, Drake's Seat, and Magens Bay. Breathtaking views can be seen from Mountain Top and Charlotte Amalie Overlook.

We also passed by Fort Christian, Franklin D. Roosevelt Park and saw a hurricane damaged area of the island.
We also included some scenic clips of our cruise ship sailing away from St Thomas, so hope you enjoy that as much as we did. This was part of our December 2017 Eastern Caribbean cruise on the MSC Divina.

Things To Do in Port St. Thomas, USVI
Cruise Ship & Island Travel Gear & Advice -
Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas is the best duty-free shopping in the world for watches and jewelry. The current duty-free allowance per US citizen is $1600 per person and I don't think that loose diamonds, loose tanzanite, etc. are counted against that allowance....always check with customs to be sure =) Almost every watch brand including Patek Philippe, Panerai, Vacheron Constantine, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre, Rolex, Breitling, Omega, Ulysse Nardin and MUCH MORE can purchased very nicely discounted in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas. Ajante Jewelers is the best jewelry store in the world! It is located in Drake's Passage in Charlotte Amalie. They have loose diamonds and loose tanzanite. They also have a vast array of diamonds and other stones that are already mounted. If you're not yet engaged, I'd recommend flying to St. Thomas and buying the engagement diamond and/or ring there. You'll likely score a much better engagement ring and even with the airfare and hotel, it'll likely cost less than it would in the United States. Ajante Jewelers are great people! I hope that you enjoy this video and please share this video with others! I filmed this video in 4K UltraHD with a Sony FDR-AX100 camcorder. Intro portion filmed with GoPro HERO4 Black.

Marina Market St. Thomas Walkthrough
Cruise Ship & Island Travel Gear & Advice -
This is my favorite grocery store in St. Thomas. It is located a few hundred yards from the car ferry in Red Hook St. Thomas. They have fresh meat and fish and all other groceries. Sometimes their supply can be limited though, as large yachts dock at the marina across the street to resupply. I highly recommend stopping in Marina Market in Red Hook to get supplies before sailing and/or traveling to St. John. I hope that you enjoy this video and please feel free to share this video with others. I filmed this video in 1080P HD with a Panasonic Lumix TS3 camera.
