Default Cruise Often? Favorite Caribbean Ports?

My wife and I have cruised the Caribbean a number of times and have definite "favorites" among the many ports that are frequented by cruise ships.

Actually our two favorites are not ports at all, but are islands "next door" to the islands where the ships dock.

1. Nevis - located "right next" to the port island St. Kitts. We land on St. Kitts and almost immediately go to the ferry dock and take the short boat ride over to Nevis.

2. St. John (USVI) - Located a few short ferry ride miles from St. Thomas. St Thomas is great for shopping, but St. John is a tropical paradise and is easily reachable by ferry from downtown St. Thomas or from the docks at Red Hook.

3. Our next most favorite is the port island of Grenada which is gorgeous.

4. If you don't go over to Nevis, St. Kitts is a beautiful island as well.

I've just listed four . . . because I sincerely hope others here will join in and point out some of their favorites.

I could go on with Barbados, Dominica, St. Martin/Sint Maarten, St. Lucia etc. etc. but would like to hear from others.
