Indigo trade winds – San Juan & Philipsburg

About this cruise

This one leaves Bridgetown on January 14, 2028 and spends 6 nights visiting San Juan, St. Thomas, Philipsburg and St. John's at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Crossing 4 borders through the Caribbean: Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten and Antigua & Barbuda. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Emerald Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Bridgetown has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
