Caribbean Island Hop – St. Thomas & Barbados

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from San Juan on March 22, 2026, visiting St. Thomas, Tortola, Basseterre, St. John's and Bridgetown. 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. 5 countries (U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, St. Kitts & Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda and Barbados) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on Brilliance Of The Seas. 2 restaurants come with the fare, plus 6 more when you feel like treating yourself. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You start in San Juan and come back with stories from U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, St. Kitts & Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda and Barbados.
