Ocean Discovery – Basseterre, Philipsburg & Santo Domingo

About this cruise

You board in Pointe-à-Pitre on February 5, 2027 for 7 nights visiting Basseterre, Philipsburg, Santo Domingo, St. John's and Fort-de-France, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Caribbean route takes in St. Kitts & Nevis, Sint Maarten, Dominican Republic, Antigua & Barbuda and Martinique, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. People come back from this cruise talking about Santo Domingo: The first city of the New World. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 113,216 gross tons, Costa Favolosa is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Pointe-à-Pitre before boarding. It's a good city to wander. 5 ports, 5 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
