Ports of call

Miami, Florida

My favorite of all the ports for their beautiful beach! No excursions.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
No excursions but the port was beautiful.

La Romana, Dominican Republic

4 out of 5
This port was nice, had a nice tour but not too much to do once we left port, it was pretty cloudy as though it would rain so no beach trip.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
No excursions but enjoyed the port, walked around to all areas at port and love the view from sky bar and bar off water.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
