Caribbean Grand Escape – Labadee & Aruba

About this cruise

By January 4, 2027 you'll be ready for this. 9 nights out of Port Canaveral, visiting Labadee, Willemstad, Oranjestad, Cabo Rojo-Pedernales and CocoCay, and nothing on the agenda except showing up. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 5 countries along the Caribbean coast: Haiti, Curaçao, Aruba, Dominican Republic and Bahamas. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Explorer Of The Seas has 8 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 9-night sailing is a strong place to start.
