Ocean Discovery – Grand Turk, Puerto Plata/Amber Cove & San Juan

About this cruise

11 nights starts to feel like a proper adventure. You leave Baltimore on May 10, 2027 and the route takes you through Grand Turk Island, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), San Juan, Samaná and CocoCay at a pace where there's never any need to rush. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 5 port calls start. 4 countries (Turks & Caicos Islands, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Bahamas) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. CocoCay stands out. It's Royal Caribbean's private island playground. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on Vision Of The Seas. 2 restaurants come with the fare, plus 6 more when you feel like treating yourself. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All in all, it's a solid trip.
