Eastern Excursions w/ kids

[amtmommy]

Hi
We are going on the Eastern w/ DD (6).
How easy is it to get back and forth from ship from the ports.
We would love to hit a casino but don't want her to spend the entire time on the ship.

Also is there any dolphin-stingray type encounter on the Eastern ports. If so are they in deep or shallow water that you can stand in.

Would love to hear any comments on the Eastern ports. Thanks

The dolphin stingray encounter is in Anguilla which you get to from the St. Martin stop. It is at Dolphin fantaseas. Quite pricey but we are going for it, it looks too cool!

Unfortuneatly if you choose that you will not be able to stop at a casino in St. Martin as it is an all day excursion. As we are not gamblers I don't know if St. Thomas has casinos-probably as most caribean islands do. In the case of St. Thomas you get off the ship walk through a shopping area and there are tons of cabs waiting to take you into town or wherever you want to go. If you tellyour driver what time you want to be picked up and where they will come back for you.
