St. Maarten was another port that was usually on the schedule. Before the construction of the Dr. A.C. Watley Cruise Port, all the ships calling in Phillipsburg had to tender (above) including small ships such as Cunard Countess (below).

Rounding out the ports that were typically on a QE2 Caribbean cruise was Barbados. Here, QE2 could dock in the large man-made port near Bridgetown.
Usually there would be one or two cruise ships in port such as Cunard's Caronia on the eve of the turn of the Millennium. (Y2K night). |
