If I had to sum up this island, I would just say that it's home to the rich and famous. We visited this island Christmas 2024 on our 10 day cruise on this same ship.

I must have come down with something last evening. I didn't get much sleep last night so I took a long nap this morning. I don't feel as bad as yesterday but since I've done the touristy thing here before, I opted to stay on the ship, which was perfectly fine with Ronnie since we were just here a little over a year ago. His former boss from Compaq lives on a nearby island (St. Martens) which we can see from the ship.
My day has been restful. Ronnie ran this morning, enjoyed a really good burger along with his Dr. Pepper at noon and just returned from a putting contest in the sporting area where they have putting greens and a miniature golf range. There are all sorts of onboard activities that you can collect "Big O" points from. At the end of the cruise, you can cash in your points for Oceania merchandise.
Once again, we'll miss a specialty dining meal tonight because I'm still wearing what I flew to Miami in. Hopefully they will let us re-schedule the reservations we're having to miss. But truthfully, I don't feel like dressing and going to dinner anyway.
There is no large cruise ship dock here so the larger ships anchor off shore and tender in. The water is very still today but sometimes the tender ride is an experience in itself! You will see many large yachts resting offshore. The photos below are from our balcony. Since I didn't get off the ship today, I'll include a link to my post from our previous visit to give you an idea of what St. Barts is really like.
