Caribbean Grand Tour – San Juan & St. Lucia

About this cruise

Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 12-night sailing leaves Tampa on November 28, 2026 and visits San Juan, Tortola and Basseterre, with additional stops along the Caribbean. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 7 countries, from Puerto Rico to Cayman Islands. People come back from this cruise talking about Philipsburg: Two nations, one island, infinite beaches. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Norwegian Gem has 14 dining spots on board, most of them included. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. And November is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. 7 ports, 7 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
