Palm-Fringed Bliss – Puerto Plata & St. Thomas
About this cruise
This one leaves Port Canaveral on November 21, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), St. Thomas and Basseterre at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. The ports come early and the voyage wraps with sea days. A good way to decompress before heading home. Crossing 3 borders through the Caribbean: Dominican Republic, U.S. Virgin Islands and St. Kitts & Nevis. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. As for the ship itself, Celebrity Apex takes the food seriously, with 14 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The sweet spot for most travellers: you get to know the ship, see the ports, and come home before the laundry piles up. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Port Canaveral has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
