This is a beautiful country, but the shopping can be very hectic, especially in the craft market where the women can be very, very pushy sales people.

Rose Hill plantation was good, but the craft market was not. The vendors were so pushy that some of our group were frightened.

This port offers a nice surprise in the form of a lovely antique shop on the main street. There is also a history museum on the same street. Unfortunately, you have to ferret these out yourself because the ship only tells about the shopping.

Hemmingway's home is a must see , as is the aquarium which is next to the dock. Duval Street gets a little boring with is endless t-shirt shops.

The tendering to the mainland can be "iffy" if you tend to be sea sick.

Duval Street is a waste of time. Hemmingway House is great.
