The example

Virgin Voyages lists a seven-night Southern Caribbean cruise on Valiant Lady from San Juan, Puerto Rico, calling at Tortola, Bridgetown, Castries, St. John's and Philipsburg.

What the shape feels like

Starting in San Juan puts you close to the islands, so most days are port days. It is an active week with less time on the ship.

Who it suits

Travellers who want variety and are happy to plan several shore days.

Who might choose something else

Anyone wanting slow sea days. Families need a different line, since Virgin is adults only.

Planning notes

Fly into San Juan a day early. Pick two islands to plan in detail and keep the others simple.

Where the source does not say where the cruise ends, we leave the end port blank rather than assume a round trip. This is an example trip shape drawn from a published itinerary, not a list of dates or cabins for sale. Lines change ships, ports and order, so we check the current sailing for your dates.

From an advisor

Ask us to check the current sailing for your dates; ships and ports change, and the example is a shape, not a booking.
