Will be staying on Water Island for a week. Is Blackbeards on St. Thomas a good half day trip?
I think you could include it in your 'shopping day' (pick a day with no ships, or the lowest amount of ships, for less foot traffic)....it's more of an 'hour thing', vs. half day trip...
Include a visit to Blackbeard's Castle as part of a self-guided walking tour of downtown Charlotte Amalie. See a few of the historic sites that will give you another perspective of St Thomas and an understanding of the rich history of the port of Charlotte Amalie.
Read about it on this site:
