Galleon Wake – Cartagena & Puerto Limon

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from December 20, 2026. This one's 19 nights from Fort Lauderdale, and the route visits Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk Island and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), with additional stops along the Caribbean. 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, Turks & Caicos Islands, Dominican Republic, United States, Netherlands, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica and Cayman Islands, 9 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Port time is tight at about 8 hours each. Pick your favourites and save the rest for another trip. When you're not ashore, Nieuw Amsterdam keeps you well fed. 9 places to eat, with 5 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. Suits retirees, remote workers, or anyone who doesn't need to be anywhere else for a while. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 19-night sailing is a strong place to start.
