Princess Cruises will homeport from San Juan in 2025 and 2026, the first time in more than a decade that the line has homeported from Puerto Rico.
From Oct. 2025 to March 2026, Princess will operate two, alternating seven-day Southern Caribbean itineraries onboard Grand Princess. With five ports visited on each seven-day sailing, the San Juan-based Southern Caribbean cruises will visit more ports than any other seven-day Princess cruise in the Caribbean.
The two options are: Tortola, St. Kitts, Dominica, Grenada, and Barbados OR St. Thomas, St. Maarten, Antigua, St. Vincent, and Barbados. Both sailings each feature one sea day. Cruises can also choose to combine the two seven-day cruises into a 14-day sailing that only repeats one port.
“Our return to San Juan after more than a decade not only reconnects our guests with a port rich in history and charm, but further expands the variety of departure points across North America that our guests can sail from,” said Terry Thornton, chief commercial officer for Princess Cruises.
Bookings for these sailings open May 16.
