Saffron Shoreline – CocoCay & St. Thomas

About this cruise

This one leaves Port Canaveral on April 19, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting CocoCay, St. Thomas and Philipsburg 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: Bahamas, U.S. Virgin Islands and Sint Maarten. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Star Of The Seas joined the Royal Caribbean's lineup in 2025. Still has that new-ship feel. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Port Canaveral has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
