Exotic Shores – St. Thomas & Puerto Plata

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Miami on October 17, 2027 visits St. Thomas, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) and Celebration Key. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Crossing 3 borders through the Caribbean: U.S. Virgin Islands, Dominican Republic and Bahamas. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) alone is worth the trip, Dominican amber and Atlantic waves. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Carnival Celebration takes the food seriously, with 18 restaurants to choose from. 11 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Worth booking. That's the short version.
