We're doing a Southern Caribbean cruise (Aruba, Curacao, St. Marteen and St. Thomas). Has anyone ever been? Any suggestions for shore excursions or 'must do' things in any of those ports??

Re: Southern Caribbean Cruise
I went on a cruise but only hit St. Thomas from your list. It was the best island we went to. We took a jeep tour up to the highest mountain (i've been here twice and did it both times). The guide will stop plenty of times to allow for pic taking. It was sooooooo beautiful. We requested them to leave us at Emerald Beach at the end of the tour instead of the scheduled one. It was so relaxing and not crowded either. Wait til you get on the island and go through the locals insead of through the cruise line. I think we only payed $15 each.
Also, its a great spot for jewelry buying. FH bought his 'pinky bling' there lol. Hope you enjoy yourself!!
ETA: No, No, it was $15 for the both of us together.
