We saw howler monkeys and birds I have
never seen anywhere else. It was certainly worth the $10 a head for
the boat ride.

In my (limited) experience with cruise ships it is important to take
advantage of the excursions even if they seem a little pricey. If
not, you'll end up seeing the same row of tourist trap junk shops that
you saw in the last port.
Just about the worst way of seeing the Caribbean is on a cruise ship
but that's all that a lot of people ever experience. We have
neighbors that couldn't believe we enjoyed Grenada three years ago
because all they saw was the area right around the dock, which leaves
a lot to be desired.
It's for sure the excursions add immensely to the trip. The problem is figuring out which to take!
