Volcanic Trade Winds – Dominica & Tortola

About this cruise

Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 11-night sailing leaves Fort Lauderdale on February 2, 2027 and visits Philipsburg, St. John's and Roseau, with additional stops along the Caribbean. 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 7 countries along the Caribbean coast: Netherlands, Antigua & Barbuda, Dominica, Martinique, St. Kitts & Nevis, British Virgin Islands and Bahamas. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Philipsburg, Two nations, one island, infinite beaches. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 12 restaurants on Rotterdam, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 11 nights. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Fort Lauderdale itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
