Schooner’s Path – St. Thomas & Stirrup Cay

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Miami on September 26, 2026, visiting Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), St. Thomas, Tortola and Great Stirrup Cay. 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. 4 countries (Dominican Republic, U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands and Bahamas) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. 8 hours ashore per call. Enough for the highlights, not enough for a nap. As for the ship itself, Norwegian Luna (2026) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
