PORTS OF CALL
San Juan, Puerto Rico
As your vessel navigates the deep blue channel into San Juan Bay, you are greeted by the same formidable sight that once deterred empires and pirates like Sir Francis Drake: the stone ramparts of Castillo San Felipe del Morro. While the age of swashbucklers is long past, their wake has left an island of profound national treasures, making San Juan far more than a point of departure—it is a destination demanding its own chapter in your travelogue. We encourage you to bookend your cruise with a few days here, allowing the city’s rhythm to fully envelop you.
**Pre-Cruise Immersion: A Walk Through 500 Years of History**
Arrive a day or two early to decompress and transition into vacation mode. Settle into your accommodations, perhaps a restored colonial hotel within the walled city or a chic beachfront resort in nearby Condado. Your first exploration should be on foot, through the enchanting streets of Old San Juan. The blue-hued adoquín cobblestones, cast from furnace slag and brought over as ballast in Spanish galleons, pave your way through a vibrant grid of pastel-hued townhomes with intricate ironwork balconies overflowing with bougainvillea.
Dedicate your first full day to the UNESCO World Heritage sites that define the city’s skyline. Begin at the six-level citadel of **Castillo San Felipe del Morro**. Walk the sprawling, windswept lawn where soldiers once drilled and children now fly kites, and explore the sentry boxes, barracks, and cannon batteries that guarded the entrance to the Caribbean for centuries. The panoramic views of the Atlantic are simply breathtaking. From there, stroll along the city walls to its larger counterpart, **Castillo San Cristóbal**, a masterpiece of 18th-century military engineering designed to protect against land-based attacks. Venture into its tunnels and stand in the famous “Garita del Diablo” (Devil’s Sentry Box), shrouded in legend.
For lunch, step away from the main thoroughfares and find a local fonda for an authentic taste of *comida criolla*. This is your opportunity to try a classic *mofongo*—a savory mound of mashed plantains, garlic, and olive oil, often filled with succulent pork, shrimp, or chicken. In the afternoon, delve deeper into the city’s heritage. Visit the final resting place of the island’s first governor, Juan Ponce de León, at the magnificent **Catedral de San Juan Bautista**. Nearby, tour **La Casa Blanca**, a fortified residence built for his family in 1521, now a museum offering a glimpse into 16th- and 17th-century life. As evening descends, enjoy a handcrafted cocktail at a rooftop bar overlooking the harbor before indulging in a sophisticated dinner at one of Old San Juan’s celebrated restaurants, where chefs artfully fuse Taíno, Spanish, and African culinary traditions.
**Post-Cruise Exploration: Beyond the City Walls**
After your cruise, with the relaxed pace of the sea still with you, use your extra days to explore the island’s diverse character. Venture beyond the old city to experience modern Puerto Rican life and stunning natural beauty.
One compelling option is a day trip to **El Yunque National Forest**, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System. A short drive from San Juan, this lush wonderland offers well-maintained hiking trails that lead you through a canopy of giant ferns and tabonuco trees, past cascading waterfalls, and to observation towers with sweeping views of the coast. The cool, misty air and the symphony of coqui frogs provide a restorative contrast to the sun-drenched city.
For a different kind of cultural immersion, explore the dynamic neighborhood of Santurce. Known for its vibrant street art and murals, Santurce is the city’s creative pulse. Visit the **Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico**, which houses a comprehensive collection of Puerto Rican art from the 17th century to the present. In the evening, experience the energy of **La Placita de Santurce**. A humble farmer’s market by day, it transforms at night into a bustling open-air block party, where locals and visitors alike gather to enjoy live music, dance salsa in the streets, and sample food from the surrounding kiosks and restaurants. It’s an authentic, joyous, and unforgettable experience.
Alternatively, you can dedicate your post-cruise time to pure relaxation. The golden sands of Isla Verde and Condado Beach are lined with resorts and beach clubs, offering the perfect setting to unwind with a book and a piña colada—a cocktail famously invented right here in San Juan. Or, for a taste of the island’s most famous export, take a ferry across the bay to Cataño for a tour of the **Casa Bacardí** distillery, where you can learn about the history of rum and master the art of mixing the perfect mojito.
San Juan is a city of layers, where colonial history, vibrant arts, world-class cuisine, and breathtaking nature converge. By extending your stay, you transform your cruise from a simple voyage into a deep, enriching cultural journey, allowing you the time and space to truly connect with the heart and soul of the “Island of Enchantment.”
Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I.
Charlotte Amalie is one of the Caribbean’s most dynamic and bustling ports, a place where vibrant commerce and stunning natural beauty exist side-by-side. While its reputation as a duty-free shopping mecca is well-earned, the true charm lies in knowing how to navigate its offerings.
The historic downtown is a compact grid of Danish colonial architecture, where 18th-century stone warehouses now house an extensive array of jewelry, liquor, and electronic stores. For a genuine sense of the old city, step away from the main thoroughfares and explore the quiet stone-paved alleys. A worthwhile challenge is the climb up the historic “99 Steps” (actually 103) for rewarding views over the harbor.
For many, the highlight of St. Thomas is escaping the city bustle. The Skyride to Paradise Point offers the definitive panoramic photograph of your ship in the turquoise harbor—it’s a tourist staple for good reason. Of course, the beaches are a primary draw. Magens Bay is the island’s most famous stretch of sand; it’s undeniably beautiful, but expect crowds and an entrance fee. For a different experience, consider Sapphire Beach for its excellent snorkeling right offshore or the more tranquil Lindquist Beach, a protected part of a nature park.
Practical Tip: Getting around is typically done via open-air “safari” taxis. These are multi-passenger trucks that operate on set routes with fixed, per-person fares. Confirm the price to your destination with the driver before you depart to ensure a smooth and enjoyable day exploring the island.
Tortola, British Virgin Islands
Tortola is the lush, mountainous heart of the British Virgin Islands, offering a more subdued and nature-focused experience than many of its Caribbean neighbors. The port at Road Town is primarily a gateway, and the island’s true appeal is found by exploring its winding roads and hidden coves.
A short taxi ride leads to Cane Garden Bay, a classic Caribbean crescent of white sand and calm, turquoise water, lined with casual beach bars. For a more secluded experience, Smuggler’s Cove offers excellent snorkeling in a protected bay. For panoramic views, a trip to Sage Mountain National Park reveals a canopy of tropical forest and trails overlooking the surrounding archipelago.
A visit to the Callwood Rum Distillery in Cane Garden Bay provides a rustic glimpse into the island's past. This centuries-old, family-run operation still uses original equipment, offering a truly authentic taste of local history. Tortola is best suited for travelers seeking stunning scenery and a relaxed pace, rather than extensive shopping or numerous historical landmarks.
Basseterre, St. Kitts
St. Kitts offers a compelling look into the Caribbean's colonial past, anchored by one of the most impressive historical sites in the region. The main event here is the Brimstone Hill Fortress, a massive, astonishingly well-preserved British fortification and UNESCO World Heritage site. Known as the "Gibraltar of the West Indies," its cannons and stone walls command breathtaking panoramic views of the sea and neighboring islands. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in history or simply a spectacular viewpoint.
For a more relaxed perspective, the St. Kitts Scenic Railway offers a unique journey along old sugarcane lines, providing a leisurely tour of the island's coastline and villages. If a classic beach day is your goal, head to the southern peninsula. Here, beaches like Cockleshell Bay and South Friars Bay offer calm waters, soft sand, and a string of lively beach bars with excellent views of the neighboring island of Nevis.
Back in Basseterre, the town itself is a compact grid of colonial architecture, centered around the small but photogenic Circus. While the town is pleasant for a short stroll, the island's true treasures lie just beyond. St. Kitts delivers a rewarding day for those who prioritize history and natural scenery over extensive shopping.
St. John's, Antigua
St. John's is the vibrant gateway to Antigua, an island that offers a compelling blend of classic Caribbean leisure and significant British naval history. While the port city itself is a bustling hub of colorful colonial-era architecture and duty-free shopping at Heritage Quay, the island's true treasures require a short journey.
For anyone with an interest in history, the essential destination is Nelson's Dockyard. Located in English Harbour (a scenic 30-minute taxi ride), this meticulously restored 18th-century naval base is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only continuously working Georgian dockyard in the world. It’s a living museum where you can walk the same cobblestones as Admiral Nelson, explore the Dockyard Museum, and enjoy lunch at a waterside café. For a breathtaking perspective, arrange for your driver to take you up to the Shirley Heights lookout for one of the most iconic panoramic views in the Caribbean.
Of course, Antigua is legendary for its beaches. While the claim of 365 beaches is a charming piece of local lore, you only need one for a perfect day. Dickenson Bay is a popular choice, offering calm waters, beach bars, and water sports. For a more serene experience, ask a driver to take you to the powdery sands of Valley Church Beach or Ffryes Beach on the southwest coast.
Our advice: Plan your day. The best of Antigua lies beyond the immediate port. A pre-arranged taxi or a shore excursion is the most efficient way to experience the island's unique combination of historical depth and stunning natural beauty.
Castries, St. Lucia
St. Lucia stands apart from its Caribbean neighbors, defined by a dramatic, volcanic landscape rather than just its coastline. The island’s icons are the majestic Pitons, twin emerald peaks rising sharply from the sea—a UNESCO World Heritage site that forms one of the most breathtaking vistas in the tropics.
From the port in Castries, visitors face a pleasant choice, as the island’s prime attractions are geographically distinct. The quintessential St. Lucian experience lies to the south, near the town of Soufrière. Reaching it requires a commitment: either a winding, scenic drive of over an hour or a faster, highly recommended boat excursion. This journey rewards you with up-close views of the Pitons, a visit to the Sulphur Springs—the world's only “drive-in volcano”—and the chance to take a therapeutic mud bath in its mineral-rich pools.
For those preferring a more relaxed day closer to port, the areas north of Castries offer their own appeal. Marigot Bay, a stunning natural harbor framed by lush hills, is a short journey away and perfect for a quiet lunch with a view. Further north, Rodney Bay presents a more lively atmosphere with the beautiful expanse of Reduit Beach, waterfront restaurants, and shops. Nearby, Pigeon Island National Landmark provides a mix of military history, gentle hiking trails, and panoramic views of the coastline.
Closer to the ship, the Castries Market offers an authentic slice of local life with its vibrant stalls of spices, produce, and handmade crafts.
