I'm in a similar boat. Just looking for something to do after getting off until we can check into our airbnb at 2. But potentially a longer tour. I'm wondering how to gauge how long it'll take to get through customs.

Any other snorkeling suggestions? Or just excursion suggestions? I'm similar islands except instead of Martinique we'll be in St Croix. I only want to probably snorkel once or twice so looking for the best option. Also we are leaving out of San Juan. TIA!

there are groups that cater to solo trave and senior travel. I haven't been on CC in years but there used to be groups that would plan to cruise together for the purpose of meeting up. If you're on facebook there's a group called Girls Love Travel. Maybe there's a similar group for seniors. Hope you found what you wanted!

you get back on the ship with your water bottle filled with alcohol? They don't check them? I don't buy drink packages, never have. I'll have a bottle of wine and 1 or 2 boat drinks on board, and I drink less now than 13 years ago, but if they don't check water bottles then that would be worth having a lemonade mixer to buy something on an island.

Me too! Our airbnb said if nobody is booked the night before we can check in early to store luggage. Staying 2 nights post cruise. Looking at jungle/waterfall excursions. Any other suggestions? I've stopped in san juan but I think we waited forever for the hotel to get us a rental car we just drove around and couldn't do the zip line thing before going back to the ship bc the guide was with another group and they didn't have more than 1 that day. I was SO disappointed for the kids. And mad at false promises of a rental car.

Scary to know what might be in there. IYKYK

Us too! mid 50s, easy going, just booked last week. Haven't cruised since 2011.
