Ocean Discovery – Oranjestad, Willemstad & Fort de France

About this cruise

The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 7 nights from San Juan on December 5, 2026, visiting Oranjestad, Willemstad, Fort-de-France and Basseterre. In between port days, the 2 sea days are where cruise life actually happens: reading, eating, napping, repeat. The Caribbean route takes in Netherlands, Martinique and St. Kitts & Nevis, 3 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Willemstad stands out. It's UNESCO colour against Caribbean blue. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Valiant Lady keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 12 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. If you can, add a night in San Juan before boarding. It's a good city to wander. All in all, it's a solid trip.
