Caribbean Island Hop – Tortola & St. Kitts
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 October 23, 2027, visiting Tortola, Philipsburg, St. John's, Basseterre and St. Croix. 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 5 countries along the Caribbean coast: British Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten, Antigua & Barbuda, St. Kitts & Nevis and U.S. Virgin Islands. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, There are 8 restaurants on Grandeur Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
