Charlotte Amalie
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 17:00
St. Thomas's harbour town in the U.S. Virgin Islands — a deep, sheltered bay ringed by red-roofed hills. Known for duty-free shopping along Main Street and the easy hop to Magens Bay or a ferry across to quieter St. John.

The Dutch-side capital of St. Maarten, set behind the long curve of Great Bay. Front Street is wall-to-wall duty-free; a short water taxi or drive reaches the French side's Marigot market and the famous low-flying jets over Maho Beach.
