Cobalt Shallows – Tortola, St. Johns & Bimini

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 10-night sailing from Miami on December 28, 2026 visits Philipsburg, Basseterre, Tortola, St. John's and Bimini. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. The Caribbean route takes in Sint Maarten, St. Kitts & Nevis, British Virgin Islands, Antigua & Barbuda and Bahamas, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Don't rush through St. John's, which is known as Antigua's harbour of three hundred sixty-five beaches. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Brilliant Lady joined the Virgin Voyages's lineup in 2025. Still has that new-ship feel. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. If you can, add a night in Miami before boarding. It's a good city to wander. All told, 5 ports across 10 nights covers a lot.
