We've returned from a 12 night southern Caribbean itinerary 1/16/11 on the Explorer and it was another great cruise! We took a balcony cabin for the first time as we booked this cruise close to sail date and the cabin was comfortable for us on deck 10 and we had our luggage by 3pm and were unpacked before muster. Ports visited were Labadee, Samanna, St. Thomas, St, Kitts, Antigua and St. Martin. Perfect weather and great ports!

In Labadee we took the Kayak tour which we enjoyed. Bring some money as you will stop in a small cove where you will find local crafts to buy.

In St. Kitts we did the Fan Ta Sea Catamaran tour again which is fantastic, 70 ft cat, great crew, open bar with rum drinks and soft drinks, beer and snacks and after snorkeling they take you to a beach in Nevis for a BBQ and beach time. Read more
