Tropical Escape – St Maarten & St Thomas
About this cruise
A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Miami on July 10, 2027 visits Philipsburg, St. Thomas and CocoCay. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. The route threads through 3 countries along the Caribbean coast: Sint Maarten, U.S. Virgin Islands and Bahamas. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Philipsburg, Two nations, one island, infinite beaches. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Icon Of The Seas joined the Royal Caribbean's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. Miami itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
