Hi, I have been reading a lot of posts on "what to do on such and such island." But no one ever says anything about some of these people on these islands.  I noticed you were looking into night clubs and stuff too.  The thing is, whether you go on a cruise or just go to an island for a week... you really have to be careful, especially since it will just be two women in your group.  I have been on two cruises to the carribean, and I noticed the same thing on ever island. The land is beautiful.... but the people arn't. They get in your face trying to sell you crap you don't need or just try to rob you.  On my last cruise, we wanted to go to a beach, that was on the other side of the island (can't remember what island.) Carnival had taxis that would take you there, but they were pricy, so we decided to get our own cab. A guy told us he would drive us over to the other side of the island in his boat. Now, it was just him, by himself, and 8 of us... 4 adults and 4 kids.  So it sounded safe. We hoped in and he took us around to another dock... where another 5 thugs started walking up to the boat to get in. I have no doubt to this day they were going to rob us. I am just glad we had 2 cops, and 2 marines in our group lol. 


The point I am trying to get at here is that if you do take a cruise, don't venture off into the island by yourself... do something that your ship provides... its a little bit more money, but worth it.  Also, if you just go to an island, go to an all inclusive... and stay there.  There are a lot of shaddy people on those island... so be careful! Oh, and have a good time.
