About This Cruise
The 12 Night Southern Caribbean Islander is a 12-night one-way itinerary aboard Princess Cruises Caribbean Princess. You board in Port Canaveral and disembark in Fort Lauderdale, calling at 8 ports across 7 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Florida (Port Canaveral), Aruba (Oranjestad), Curacao (Willemstad), Bonaire (Kralendijk), Dominican Republic (Puerto Plata/Amber Cove), Turks and Caicos (Grand Turk) and 2 more.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Port Canaveral and home from Fort Lauderdale, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 5 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
