Copper Sun – Puerto Plata & Tortola

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Port Canaveral on December 31, 2026 visits Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), St. Thomas, Tortola and Great Stirrup Cay. 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 Dominican Republic, U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands and Bahamas, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Of the stops, Tortola tends to be the one people talk about: BVI's mountainous sailing paradise. Port time is tight at about 7 hours each. Pick your favourites and save the rest for another trip. Norwegian Getaway keeps you well fed. 18 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Port Canaveral before boarding. It's a good city to wander. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
