Turquoise Tides – San Juan, Philipsburg & Castries

About this cruise

7 nights, 5 ports, all from Bridgetown on March 19, 2027. The route visits San Juan, St. Thomas, Philipsburg, St. John's and Castries and the whole thing just flows. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Crossing 5 borders through the Caribbean: Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten, Antigua & Barbuda and St. Lucia. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Crown Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Bridgetown has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A March departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
