Who cruises regularly to Tortola?

Been on lots of cruises, and searched lots of cruises, but it seems nobody sails to Tortilla regularly.

 

We ended up going there by mistake on a Western cruise when hurricane Wilma was going on. Rented a left hand drive car and drove on the left side of the road, that was interesting.

 

Went to Frenchmans Cay on the other side of the island.

Can't seem to find the way back there.

Tortola was great before cruise ships.

Nonetheless, still a great place to start a sailing charter.

Agree. With the exception of St. Thomas, I wish that cruise ships would leave the Virgin Islands (U.S. and British) alone. Trunk Bay is testament to what cruise ship crowds can do to paradise. Would hate to see the same fate befall Cinnamon Bay, Cane Garden Bay, Brewer's Bay and The Baths. Some places just don't absorb crowds well. These are places tailor made for sailing charters or land-based visitors. Not excursion tenders.

I notice there's a lot of European ships visiting- Costa, MSC, Fred O, Thomson. P&O has 2 ships based in the Caribbean over winter, and they do regular visits in their fortnightly schedule.
