About This Cruise
The 8 Night Southern Caribbean is a 8-night round-trip itinerary aboard Royal Caribbean Independence of the Seas. You board and return in Miami, calling at 5 ports across 5 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Florida (Miami), Curacao (Willemstad), Aruba (Oranjestad), Dominican Republic (Cabo Rojo), Bahamas (Nassau) and Florida (Miami).
Because it's round-trip from Miami, you fly into and out of a single city and unpack just once. Longer hops are crossed on the 3 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports.
