Palm-Fringed Haven – St. Thomas & San Juan

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 8-night round-trip sailing from Port Canaveral on March 20, 2027 visits St. Thomas, Philipsburg, San Juan and Celebration Key. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. 4 countries (U.S. Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten, Puerto Rico and Bahamas) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. Philipsburg stands out. It's Two nations, one island, infinite beaches. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on Carnival Vista. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 7 more when you feel like treating yourself. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. All in all, it's a solid trip.
