Don't forget your sunscreen--a high spf sunscreen, and a camera.

For shopping, check out downtown Charlotte Amelie and/or the Yacht Haven Grande/Havensight area.

Since you are leaving on a Saturday, I would recommend getting to the airport at least 2.5 hours early. The airport can be a zoo on Saturdays and the lines for customs really get backed up.

Have a great trip!

I agree with liamsaunt. Get to the airport early on Saturday. It can be a madhouse.
Don't forget bugspray. You never know when you are going to need it down there!

Most of all...enjoy!!

Lucky you jgee82!
Just an FYI...when there are no ships in port there are VERY few shops open
Crazy I know, last Summer we were kinda shocked to find this out while spending a non-ship morn'n in CA downtown. I guess most of the businesses are interested more in the cruise crowd as opposed to the visitors that are spending their $$$ ALL week.

All 3 shopping areas are close together, so I say try a bit of 'em all...Havensight, downtown and Yacht Haven Grande.

I prefer the North and East end of STT. American Yacht Harbor has a few good places for eats/drinks.

Have a blast
ps actually Sun is a fine day for hanging with the locals @ Magens!
