Best Line for Tortola

[defaultet]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has a favorite line or time of year to visit Tortola. I went with HAL on a 10-day Caribbean near the end of October for my honeymoon. We fell in love with Tortola, it was by far our favorite port.

 

Of course, ours was the only ship in port that day. And I think most of the oldsters stayed on the ship. We went to Cane Garden Bay and it was practially deserted. It was so dead by the time we left that it seemed kind of iffy if we would even be able to get a cab to take us back to the ship!

 

Anyway, what is everyone's favorite line to see Tortola? Do any lines have longer port time? Princess seems to have really interesting Caribbean itineraries. Anyone been w/ Princess, and how busy was Tortola? I imagine the most important factor is just having one ship in port at a time.

 

Are there any lines that offer 2 nights in Tortola? I couldn't find anything, but I was just curious.

 

Thanks!

Erik

We recently booked the Zuiderdam for the Nov. 24th sailing. We are in Tortola from noon 'till 10pm. That's one of the longest port stays I have seen for this port.
