Caribbean Island Hop – Tortola & St. Lucia
About this cruise
A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from San Juan on March 4, 2028 visits Tortola, Basseterre, Bridgetown, Castries, Philipsburg and St. Thomas. 6 consecutive port days with no time at sea. It's an explore-everything kind of trip. The route threads through 6 countries along the Caribbean coast: British Virgin Islands, St. Kitts & Nevis, Barbados, St. Lucia, Sint Maarten and U.S. Virgin Islands. Don't rush through Bridgetown, which is known as Rum, reggae, and a coral-fringed coast. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 15 restaurants on Norwegian Prima, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. San Juan itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. All told, 6 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
