Tides of Time – Caribbean’s Lost Coast

About this cruise

If you've got 14 nights to work with, this sailing from Fort Lauderdale on February 14, 2027 through Grand Turk Island, San Juan and St. Thomas, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. 7 countries (Turks & Caicos Islands, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Bahamas, Jamaica, Cayman Islands and Mexico) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. People come back from this cruise talking about Grand Turk Island: Where the shelf drops into the deep blue. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on Nieuw Statendam. 6 restaurants come with the fare, plus 6 more when you feel like treating yourself. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. 7 ports, 7 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
