Southern Caribbean Excursions

[CKG1007]

We are going on a Southern Explorer cruise in October for our honeymoon. The stops are San Juan, St. Thomas, St. Kitts, Grenada, Aruba, and Bonaire. I was wondering if anyone knows what the weather is like in these places in October and if there are any good places to go scuba diving. We did the discover scuba diving in St. Thomas last month and are looking at doing the same type of thing on this cruise. Also, does anyone know any other good excursions for these stops, or any excursions to avoid?

The weather is wonderful, unless there's a storm. San Juan-the Bacardi factory or a tour of old San Juan. St. Thomas-take a ferry to St. John and a cab to Trunk Bay or do a sail/snorkel to Buck Island. St. Kitts, we visited the Batik factory and a fort which were interesting. We did a sail/snorkel, but wasn't impressed. Grenada-do a dive/snorkel in Flamingo Bay, absolutely beautiful. Aruba we did a sail/snorkel on the sunken tug, pretty decent snorkel. Bonaire-do the Mushi/Mushi sail/snorkel-great crew, excellent catamaran, good snorkeling. Best wishes and have a wonderful cruise!
