Ocean Discovery – Puerto Plata/Amber Cove, St Thomas & Tortola

About this cruise

You sail from Miami on June 17, 2028 and spend 7 nights visiting Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), St. Thomas, Tortola and Great Stirrup Cay. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. 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 Caribbean route takes in Dominican Republic, U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands and Bahamas, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Port time is tight at about 8 hours each. Pick your favourites and save the rest for another trip. As for the ship itself, Norwegian Aura launched in 2027, so everything on board is still new. You can tell. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
