Indigo Meridian – Martinique, Grenada & Curacao
About this cruise
Clear the calendar from October 15, 2026. This one's 14 nights from Fort Lauderdale, and the route visits Philipsburg, Basseterre and Fort-de-France, with additional stops along the Caribbean. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. It starts gently with sea days, so by the time you reach the first port you'll have explored the ship and actually feel on holiday. The Caribbean route takes in Sint Maarten, St. Kitts & Nevis, Martinique, Dominica, Grenada, Trinidad & Tobago, Aruba and Curaçao, 8 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Coral Princess keeps you well fed. 11 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. Suits retirees, remote workers, or anyone who doesn't need to be anywhere else for a while. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. 14 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
