My family and I enjoyed the Southern C cruise out of San Juan. We sailed to St. Thomas, St. Kitts, Aruba and Curacao in that order. All of the islands were nice, but Aruba and Curacao were my favorite.

We didn't do much in St. Thomas, but we met Captain Sunshine in St. Kitts for a tour of the island. This tour led us up a mountain and to a historical fortress that was built by slaves. We saw the monkeys and my daughter, 9 years old, had one sit on her shoulder. The fortress was breath taking and a highly recommend Captain Sunshine for this tour. The price was $40 pp and we were with him from 9 am until after 1 pm. He took great care of us. I would have loved for him to tell us more about the island but he was great. I may post pictures later.

Aruba-we booked a cruise for snorkeling. Didn't like it so much but the people were nice. The water was too shallow and I scraped up my news. The current was high and we had to swim to a house and and go around. With my 73 year old mother and 9 year old daughter, not so good. You will find this tour on trip advisor maybe the 5th one down. If you prefer just staying relatively still or swimming a little bit, take another tour. The weather was hot and beautiful. I can't wait to get back to this island.
