St. Croix Cruise Ship Schedule
Cruise ships visiting St. Croix dock exclusively at the Frederiksted Pier (Ann E. Abramson Pier) on the island's west end.
General Schedule

- Arrival Times: Ships typically arrive in port by 8:00 AM and depart by 5:00 or 6:00 PM.
- Seasonality: The cruise season peaks during the winter and spring months. While the summer months (June–September) see fewer port calls, Royal Caribbean maintains a light, steady schedule of stops.
Port Facilities & Local Access
-
- Location: The Frederiksted Pier is a landmark structure that allows you to walk directly off the ship and into the historic town of Frederiksted.
- Nearby Highlights: The pier is within walking distance of Fort Frederik, sandy beaches, and local shops/restaurants.
Transportation
Many visitors want to cross island to Christiansted or further, to Point Udall at the east end. We recommend downloading the Vi Hail, an Uber-like app for the US Virgins Islands, as traditional taxis can be difficult to secure and car rentals can be expensive. If you're ready for left-side driving, try Centerline Car Rentals.
