Gilded Archipelago – San Juan & Basseterre

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Fort Lauderdale on December 5, 2027 visits Basseterre, San Juan and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) and doesn't try to cram in too much. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 3 port calls start. The route threads through 3 countries along the Caribbean coast: St. Kitts & Nevis, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic. Keep an eye out for Puerto Plata (Amber Cove): Dominican amber and Atlantic waves. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 8 restaurants on Sky Princess, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Fort Lauderdale itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. That's 7 nights well spent.
