Tropical Escape – Princess Cays & St. Thomas

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Fort Lauderdale on March 4, 2028 visits Princess Cays, St. Thomas and Philipsburg. You do all the exploring first, then the last few days are at sea. It's like a built-in wind-down. 3 countries (Bahamas, U.S. Virgin Islands and Sint Maarten) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands' duty-free harbour paradise. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Sun Princess joined the Princess Cruises's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
