Cerulean Meridian – San Juan & Puerto Plata
About this cruise
Clear the calendar from September 27, 2026. This one's 14 nights from Port Canaveral, and the route visits Nassau, Princess Cays, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), Grand Turk Island and San Juan. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The Caribbean route takes in Bahamas, Dominican Republic, Turks & Caicos Islands and Puerto Rico, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. You get around 8 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Caribbean Princess keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
