Great port intensive cruise. Would have preferred a different port than Trinidad but mostly because it takes way to long to get anywhere by vehicle.

Love St. Lucia. Did ship's excursion: Catamaran to Pidgeon island and snorkeling and drive bys by the Pitons and Marigot Bay.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Slow because we were doing an excursion with airport drop off. Took an hour to herd. We prefer self disembarkation and the 2 minute bus ride from terminal to bus pickup was as weird as taking the 2 minute bus ride to get on the ship.
