[cruiseluver77]

I know this has been asked a hundred times but I am new to the board. I will be sailing out of San Juan on 8/26 going the Barbados route and can't decide what to do. There are so many awesome choices!! Any help would be great.

We went on that route last year for our honeymoon and loved every excursion we did:

 

Barbados - We went downtown on our own for some shopping and then went on the Jolly Roger Pirate cruise. It was so much fun!

 

St. Lucia - We took the catamaran tour around the island that stopped near the Pitons, where we went on a walking tour of the walk-in volcano. From there, we went to this plantation where we saw how cocoa is made and had fresh mangos. The mango-lemonade at the little gift shop was amazing. Then, we got back on the catamaran and stopped at a little beach to swim. St. Lucia is gorgeous.

 

Antigua - We did the snorkeling excursion. The weather was bad that day so it wasn't as exciting as we had hoped.

 

St. Maarten - We did the Lotterie Farm Treetop Adventure. It was a lot of fun. The bus then dropped some of us off at downtown Phillipsburg where there is a nice beach and tons of shopping.

 

St. Thomas - We parasailed and then went to Morningstar Beach (near the Marriott). It was very nice. From there we took a taxi downtown and did some shopping. We found this art gallery in an alley and bought a beautiful painting. The artist is David Hill and his seascapes are amazing.

 

Hope this helps.
