Day 3

Amber Cove

Dominican Republic

A poolside pause, port craft browsing, or a Puerto Plata fort.

Ways to spend your day

  • Amber Cove Aqua Zone

    Selected poolside areas in the cruise centre.

  • Amber Cove Marketplace

    Selected shops and an optional coffee pause.

  • Fortaleza San Felipe

    Selected fort rooms and an available coastal viewpoint.

Day 4

San Juan

Puerto Rico

Choose your side of the bay.

Check the pier on your cruise documents before planning a day in San Juan. Royal Caribbean directs embarking guests to the Pan American Pier in Isla Grande, so do not assume your ship boards beside Old San Juan. Arrange transport to the named terminal and allow time for luggage drop-off and check-in.

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.

Day 5At sea.A full day at sea aboard Coral Princess. Sailing from San Juan toward Oranjestad.

Explore Coral Princess

Day 6

Oranjestad

Aruba

Town flavors or a beach day.

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.

Day 7

Willemstad

Curaçao

Choose town or the coast.

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.

  • Mambo Beach

    Choose one beach area with a clear entrance, facilities and return pickup.

Day 8

Kralendijk

Bonaire

Waterfront or island water.

Kralendijk docks in the middle of a very small capital, and Bonaire's entire draw is underwater: the island's west coast is a marine park you can enter from the shore. Bring or rent a mask rather than booking a boat, and the day organises itself.

Ways to spend your day

  • Waterfront & lunch

    Explore town on foot and choose breakfast or lunch by the water.

  • Te Amo beach stop

    Use a return taxi for a beach outing without a second boat connection.

  • Klein Bonaire picnic

    Choose the offshore beach only when the water-taxi schedule leaves a comfortable return.
