Our 2nd port on our Eastern Caribbean Disney Cruise was St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands.   We split up at this port with my husband and son going snorkeling on a catamaran to see turtles and tropical fish while I went on the "St Johns - On your own" excursion so that I could explore Virgin Islands National Park.
