I would either take an excursion or get off the ship and at the end of the pier get a tour or taxi. The sit is far end of island and way up a hill, mountain, so give yourself enough time to get back to the ship. I would not take a bus there.

I'm not sure where the bus stop is as we rented scooters, but if the stop is at the main road it is a long and very steep road. Also, even if you are dropped off where you pay it is still an effort to get to the top. If you are hearty and attempt it, be aware of the road (cars) as it is narrow with tight turns.
Is it difficult getting a taxi from the cruise port to Brimstone? Hoping to head there before before going to a beach for the rest of our day on St. Kitts.
A:
No, tons of drivers waiting for you at end of dock! $25 pp for 3 hr island tour stopping here first!
