Island Paradise Cruise – Coco Cay & St. Thomas

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Port Canaveral on August 16, 2026 visits CocoCay, St. Thomas and Basseterre. You do all the exploring first, then the last few days are at sea. It's like a built-in wind-down. The route threads through 3 countries along the Caribbean coast: Bahamas, U.S. Virgin Islands and St. Kitts & Nevis. Keep an eye out for St. Thomas: US Virgin Islands' duty-free harbour paradise. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Star Of The Seas joined the Royal Caribbean's lineup in 2025. Still has that new-ship feel. Port Canaveral itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. That's 7 nights well spent.
