On St. Thomas we did the Helmet Dive at Coral World. Our excursion didnt meet until 12:15 so we had time to explore the shop near the port. At 12:15 we met back at the port for our excursion. We were on a "bus" with the group that were doing the semi-sub boat trip thing. The ride was about 30 minutes and when we arrived at coral world we went straight to the area designated for the helmet dive. There were 5 other people doing the helmet dive besides my family of four. There are usually 10 but there was no single person to go with us. We went under for about 20-25 minutes. The water was beautiful and so were all of the fish. After the dive we went to Coki Beach for about a half hour before we had to meet back for the bus. The water was beautiful and clear. Once we all got on the bus we were able to go back to the ship. My friend was on the bus with us and had done the semi-sub. He said it was fun but kind of boring. We got back to the port and my family walked around for a little bit, but i got back on with my friend and we went swimming.
St. Maarteen was beautiful. It was my favorite port :) We walked around the shops for about an hour and a half maybe more and then went back to boat to put our purchases in our room. We did the Orient Beach excursion. The beach was beautiful but the waves were huge! The beach was amazing and very pretty. The water was pretty clear but there was a lot of seaweed and sand because of the waves. In all this was deffinitely my favorite port.
