We really like that this cruise itinerary has only one full day at sea, maximizing the amount of time to explore the Caribbean islands. We will go into detail about each port we visited in future blog posts (spoiler alert – we liked the island of St. Lucia best).
Some people actually prefer to have more time on the boat and would rather have less ports to visit. We met an older couple in St. Thomas who were on a cruise ship that departed from Baltimore, Maryland. Their cruise spent 3 days at sea on the way down to the Caribbean and 3 more days at sea on the return trip back to Baltimore. They said the demographic on the ship was much older and that they preferred to have the extra time to read books and lounge on the sun deck.
The ship offers plenty of room to dance in the hallways.
The main lobby and elevators. Hard to believe this is the inside of a boat!
