Bridgetown docks at the Deep Water Harbour, a hot fifteen-minute walk or a short taxi from the centre. Barbados rewards going further than the town: the west coast beaches, Harrison's Cave and the Atlantic surf at Bathsheba are all different islands in effect.

Day 2At sea.A full day at sea aboard Caribbean Princess. Sailing from Bridgetown toward San Juan.
Check the pier on your cruise documents before planning a day in San Juan.

Ways to spend your day
One fort & coffee
Choose El Morro or San Cristóbal, then fit coffee and an old-city walk around your return.
Old-city food & streets
Enjoy Old San Juan with a meal and a flexible walk instead of a full fort visit.
A separate beach outing
Choose beach time as your main stop, with a return ride and conditions checked before you settle in.
St. Thomas is the busiest of the US Virgin Islands, and ships berth at Havensight or Crown Bay, both a short ride from the capital at Charlotte Amalie. Magens Bay is the beach everyone goes to; the ferry across to St.
Ways to spend your day
Magens Bay & lunch
Choose beach time and Fairchild’s in one place, with park entry and rentals budgeted separately.
Sapphire Beach
Spend the outing at Sapphire with your rental arrangements and return point settled.
Keep it near your arrival
Use your arrival area’s shops and food options when a beach round trip would squeeze the day.
Ships dock at Point Blanche, around the headland from Philipsburg itself, and the boardwalk into town is a pleasant walk or a two-minute water taxi. Front Street and Great Bay beach are the easy day; the French side at Marigot and the beach under the Maho runway need a car or a tour.
Ways to spend your day
Town & lunch
Browse Front Street and the boardwalk, with a food stop chosen around your arrival time.
Beach & boardwalk
Stay beside town for a beach stop, lunch and a little browsing without a cross-island drive.
Airport beach
Choose a planned trip across the island for plane spotting, with both rides arranged in advance.
St. John's is the easternmost city in North America, a harbour ringed by cliffs with a row of painted houses above it. Signal Hill, where the first transatlantic wireless signal was received, is a walk up from the docks and the view back down is the reason to do it.
Ways to spend your day
Harbourside Park
Enjoy the park and harbour setting available during your call.
The Rooms
Choose open galleries and exhibits, with optional cafe time checked separately.
Signal Hill viewpoint
Observe the conditions present from a locally confirmed permitted viewpoint.
Oranjestad docks in the middle of town, with the pastel Dutch frontages and the shops immediately outside the terminal. Aruba's draw is the beach rather than the capital, and Eagle and Palm are both short rides north.
Ways to spend your day
Town & Dutch pancakes
Browse town and the waterfront, with pancakes or lunch at Renaissance Marketplace.
Eagle Beach
Choose Eagle Beach for your main outing, checking shade and rentals before settling in.
Palm Beach & food
Choose Palm Beach for a beach area with nearby restaurants and watersports.
Willemstad docks beside Otrobanda, and the walk across the Queen Emma pontoon bridge into the painted Handelskade frontage is the best free thing in the southern Caribbean. Curaçao's shore diving is unusually good and starts a short ride east.
Ways to spend your day
Waterfront & Punda
Explore the colorful city waterfront and choose a lunch stop around the harbor crossing arrangements.
Lunch in Otrobanda
Make a waterfront meal the focus, with a shorter walk and no need to fill the whole day with stops.
