Trade Wind Ledger – Bridgetown & Castries from Florida

About this cruise

If you've got 11 nights to work with, this sailing from Fort Lauderdale on February 15, 2028 through St. Thomas, Basseterre, Castries, Bridgetown, St. John's and Philipsburg is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 6 port calls start. 6 countries (U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, Barbados, Antigua & Barbuda and Sint Maarten) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. Philipsburg stands out. It's Two nations, one island, infinite beaches. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on Enchanted Princess. 5 restaurants come with the fare, plus 8 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. All in all, it's a solid trip.
