Caribbean Island Hop – Tortola & St. Kitts
About this cruise
7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from San Juan on August 28, 2027 visits Tortola, Philipsburg, St. John's, Basseterre and St. Croix and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Caribbean route takes in British Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten, Antigua & Barbuda, St. Kitts & Nevis and U.S. Virgin Islands, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Don't rush through Basseterre, which is known as Volcanic peaks over a Caribbean harbour. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Grandeur Of The Seas keeps you well fed. 8 places to eat, with 3 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. If you can, add a night in San Juan before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
