Tropical Paradise Cruise – Bahamas, Aruba & Jamaica

About this cruise

You won't run out of things to do on a trip this long, but you also won't feel like you have to do any of them. 11 nights from Tampa on February 21, 2027, visiting Great Stirrup Cay, Cabo Rojo-Pedernales, Oranjestad, Willemstad, Falmouth Jamaica and Grand Cayman Island. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The Caribbean route takes in Bahamas, Dominican Republic, Aruba, Curaçao, Jamaica and Cayman Islands, 6 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Norwegian Gem keeps you well fed. 14 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. A proper voyage for people who like to take their time and hate rushing through destinations. 11 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
