Tropical Escape – Bahamas & Dominicana

About this cruise

This one leaves Fort Lauderdale on October 31, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Celebration Key, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), Grand Turk Island and Bimini at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. The pace alternates neatly: port day, sea day, port day, sea day. 4 stops with a breather between each one. 3 countries (Bahamas, Dominican Republic and Turks & Caicos Islands) across the Bahamas, each with its own character. 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 Princess joined the Princess Cruises's lineup in 2025. Still has that new-ship feel. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
