Caribbean Grand Tour – St. Lucia & Barbados
About this cruise
Somewhere around day five the ship stops being transport and starts being home. This 14-night sailing from San Juan on January 17, 2027 visits Philipsburg, Fort-de-France and St. George's, with additional stops along the Caribbean. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The route threads through 7 countries along the Caribbean coast: Sint Maarten, Martinique, Grenada, St. Lucia, Barbados, U.S. Virgin Islands and Antigua & Barbuda. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Crown Princess has 13 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. 14 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
