Day 9 already, which honestly feels a little crazy considering how many stops we’ve made since leaving Miami, on this very port-intensive cruiseon Explora Journeys, Explora I. At this point we’ve hit La Romana, San Juan, St. Kitts, Les Trois-Îlets in Martinique, Bequia yesterday, and today we’re still in St.…
It is Day 3 aboard the Disney Fantasy, and we have arrived at Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, Disney’s exclusive beach destination on the island of Eleuthera. The seas are calm with scattered clouds, and temperatures should stay in the upper 70s to low 80s, which is just about perfect…
It's hard to believe it’s already Day 8 of this Explora Journeys sailing, but here we are. In just over a week we’ve gone from embarkation in Miami, to our first Caribbean stop in La Romana, followed by San Juan (when Mother Nature decided she hated us), then St. Kitts,…
On this second day of our Disney Fantasy sailing, we woke up as we made our approach into Nassau, Bahamas. My day always starts with a trip to Cove Cafe promptly at 6:30 when they open their doors. That usually leads straight to finding a deck chair up in Satellite…
Well, here we are. Day 7 onboard Explora Journeys Explora I, and we’ve officially hit the one-week mark of this cruise. Today’s port of call is one that’s actually new to me, which doesn’t happen all that often anymore, considering how many times I’ve looped around the Caribbean. This is…

Ho Ho Ho! Jason here, setting sail on a 4-day Very Merrytime Cruise through the Bahamas on the Disney Fantasy. While Scott is floating around on Explora I, we are sure to provide you with a plethora of holiday cruise content over the next two weeks. We will be following…
Day 5 on Explora Journeys Explora I brought us to our second port of call, and hands down one of my favorite ports in the Caribbean when the weather decides to cooperate. Keep that last part in mind, friends, because it’s going to matter here in just a bit. Explora…
Day 4 on Explora Journeys Explora I, and we’ve arrived at our first port of call, La Romana in the Dominican Republic. The ship tied up just before 8:00am, and guests were able to head ashore shortly afterward. Before getting into what to do here, let’s talk a little about…
Day 3 onboard Explora Journeys’ Explora I, and once again we’re spending the day at sea as we continue making our way toward our first port of call, La Romana in the Dominican Republic, where we’re scheduled to arrive Monday morning at 8:00am. Yesterday I spent some time answering questions…
