Island Jewels – St. Thomas & St. Maarten

About this cruise

This one leaves San Juan on April 4, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting St. Thomas, Philipsburg, St. Croix, Roseau and Bridgetown 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. The route threads through 4 countries along the Caribbean coast: U.S. Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten, Dominica and Barbados. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Jewel Of The Seas has 7 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
