Things to do in Port
The Fire & Sunset Soirées itinerary on Virgin Voyages' Valiant Lady is the perfect way to test the waters with Virgin Voyages. This five day/four night itinerary sets sail from Virgin's very own terminal V in the vibrant Port of Miami. I highly recommend adding on some pre/post cruise fun in Miami for anyone looking to extend the adventures.
Your maiden voyage kicks off with a full day at sea to explore all the Valiant Lady has to offer! You will have ample time to enjoy the Valiant Ladies 20+ eateries, work on your fitness, relax by the pool, pamper yourself at the spa or enjoy one of the many entertainment options. The possibilities are endless.
After a full day at sea, it's time to explore Key West. Virgin Voyages offers excursions to captivate every traveler, from pub crawls along Duval St. to snorkel and kayak adventures to historic Key West walking tours. Relax or indulge, the choice is yours.
The turquoise blue waters of the Bahamas await at your next stop, Virgin Voyages Beach Club at Bimini. Serene relaxation or adventurous escapades are yours to choose on the sun-kissed beaches of the Bahamas. This island paradise is the perfect place to relax and unwind in your very own cabana. If you're feeling a bit more adventurous, take a scuba diving excursion or swim with gentle stingrays.
Bid adieu to your Virgin Voyages maiden experience. Make sure to seize the opportunity to secure your next adventure at a deep discount by taking advantage of My Next Virgin Voyage before you disembark. You will receive a $300 discount off your future booking coupled with up to $600 in onboard credit towards your future Virgin Voyages sailing!
Day trips
Looking to do some sightseeing? The Vizcaya Mansion & Gardens and the Museum of Graffiti are two of my favorites!
Places to eat & drink in Port
Miami is home to some of the best Cuban food in Miami so make sure to enjoy a bite to eat pre or post cruise. I love Enriqueta's Sandwich Shop. The cuban sandwich is a must!
La Colada Gourmet is the place to be if a strong cuban coffee is what you're after.
