Eastern Caribbean Voyage Cruise

Day 1 - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Arrive: Fri 19 December 2025 / Depart: Fri 19 December 2025 at 18:00

Ponce de Leon never did find the Fountain of Youth, but he did find stumble upon this lovely island, which had to be a close second. Just move to the rhythm of the ever-present salsa beat and you’ll be in the spirit in no time (secret – it’s all in the hips). Old Town San Juan is still partially enclosed by the original fortress walls dating back to the early 1500s. Attractively restored buildings with filigree cast iron balconies line its narrow cobbled streets, and cafés in shaded squares provide an ideal spot to linger. Outside the city the island offers an appealing array of golf courses, rainforests, and beaches galore.

Day 2 - Charlotte Amalie

Arrive: Sat 20 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Sat 20 December 2025 at 17:00

This stunning harbor, filled with pleasure boats and encircled by emerald hills dotted with pastel houses, was once the center of a bustling pirate culture, as swashbuckling knaves such as Blackbeard and Drake traded stolen wares in the port of Charlotte Amalie. Today many of their old warehouses have been converted to shops and malls, where you may spend your pieces of eight on an array of treasures those buccaneers could never have imagined. Not a shopper? Hit the water without walking the plank when you pilot your own zodiac, or an underwater motor scooter.

Day 3 - Virgin Gorda (BVI)

Arrive: Sun 21 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Sun 21 December 2025 at 17:00

Local lore has it that the unusual shape of this little bit of paradise reminded Christopher Columbus of a reclining, voluptuous woman, so he named it Virgin Gorda, the "Fat Virgin." She is suitably adorned with dramatic heights that plunge down from Gorda Peak to the sparkling turquoise waters far below. This is a good place to explore in a jeep, swim with dolphins, or hike the rugged trails throughout the island. Virgin Gorda is most famous for The Baths, where giant granite boulders are strewn across the beach and in the water, creating pools, caves, and grottos – a sort of natural water park.

Day 4 - St John's, Antigua

Arrive: Mon 22 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Mon 22 December 2025 at 17:00

When you spy the distinctive white baroque towers of the St. Johns Cathedral, you’ll know you have arrived in Antigua’s capital city. With a staggering 365 beaches located across the island, you can visit a new beach every day of the year. But if you only have limited time to catch some rays, take a boat tour around Antigua for a unique vantage point to find the right strand of sand that speaks to you. If you’re still undecided, Galley Bay Beach is popular and is the perfect place to put your shades on and relax under an oversized umbrella. Once you’ve soaked up enough sun, head back into town and shop ‘til you drop. St. Johns is renowned for its duty-free shops, malls, and boutiques that feature everything from haute-couture to handicrafts.

Day 5 - Saint Pierre, Martinique

Arrive: Tue 23 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Tue 23 December 2025 at 20:00

Day 7 - At Sea

Day 8 - Scarborough, Trinidad

Arrive: Fri 26 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Fri 26 December 2025 at 17:00

Scarborough is a large, multicultural area that contains the Scarborough Bluffs, huge cliffs overlooking Lake Ontario, lined with parks, beaches, and hiking trails. Inland, the sprawling Toronto Zoo features global animal pavilions, close-up encounters, and a wildlife health centre. The area is also known for its diverse spread of restaurants, including regional Southeast Asian, Chinese, and Indian cuisine.

Day 9 - Barbados

Arrive: Sat 27 December 2025 at 06:00 / Depart: Sat 27 December 2025 at 18:00

If you were to close your eyes while enjoying a "high tea in Trafalgar Square," you would swear you were in London - if it weren't for the warm breezes and emerald green waters enveloping you. Nicknamed "Little England" by some, Barbados is home to many museums that chronicle the island's rich past and over 100 shipwrecks along its reefs that are a playground for divers from around the world.

Day 10 - Mayreau

Arrive: Sun 28 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Sun 28 December 2025 at 18:00

Paradise found. No crowds of tourists, no hotels, just a resident population of about 250 in one village on the island’s highest hill (with its most spectacular views). Spend the morning aboard a catamaran exploring the waters around the Tobago Cays, five petite, uninhabited islets floating in a marine park of coral, and turtle and bird sanctuaries. Snorkel the reef off Mopion Island, a speck of sand in a crystal sea, without so much as a palm tree – just one large thatch umbrella. No doubt such exertion will give you an appetite, so back at Mayreau enjoy a beach barbeque Azamara style, on the soft white sand.

Day 11 - Castries, St. Lucia

Arrive: Mon 29 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Mon 29 December 2025 at 18:00

Famous for its twin peaks shaped by the upheaval of a now extinct volcano, St. Lucia is one of the truly unspoiled islands in all the Caribbean. Here you'll find a variety of landscapes and eco-systems not found anywhere else in the region, including rain forests, mountains and beaches that truly deserve the "pristine" designation.

Day 12 - Roseau

Arrive: Tue 30 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Tue 30 December 2025 at 18:00

The fascinating history of the West Indies tends to be overshadowed by the islands’ breathtaking natural beauty. But it’s quite a story, and Dominica is the place to hear it. It was the last of the Caribbean islands to be colonized by Europeans, due primarily to the fierce resistance of the native Caribs, after whom the sea is named. The 3,000 Carib Indians living on Dominica today are the only pre-Columbian population remaining in the eastern Caribbean. It was their tradition to color their bodies with a red dye, and the Spaniards, believing that this was their natural color, spread the rumor of a red-skinned race.

Day 13 - Basseterre

Arrive: Wed 31 December 2025 at 08:00 / Depart: Wed 31 December 2025 at 22:00

Here you can find the Parc National de la Guadeloupe which is known for its hiking trails, rivers and waterfalls as well as the Soufrière Volcano at 59,055 feet. Surfing and sailing opportunities abound in this capital city of Guadeloupe.

Day 14 - At Sea

Day 15 - Philipsburg, St Maarten

Arrive: Fri 02 January 2026 at 08:00 / Depart: Fri 02 January 2026 at 22:00

It’s hard to get lost in Philipsburg – one mile of colorful Creole houses long and four streets deep, it is easy to explore. It is also a place where you may find yourself on the brink of an adventure you have long imagined. Transfixed by those gutsy mariners sailing for glory in the America’s Cup? Now is your chance to race aboard one of those ace vessels as a working crew member. Thrilled by the stories of divers but intimidated by SCUBA? Try SNUBA and float carefree, tethered to the surface by a long hose and an ample supply of air. The reward: warm waters, a rainbow of tropical reef fish, sunken wrecks, and tall tales of your own to take home with you.

Day 16 - Roadtown

Arrive: Sat 03 January 2026 at 07:30 / Depart: Sat 03 January 2026 at 14:00

Day 17 - At Sea

Day 18 - At Sea

Day 19 - Miami, Florida

Arrive: Tue 06 January 2026 at 06:00 / Depart: Tue 06 January 2026

Propelled by Latin rhythms, with a bold style all its own, Miami is a spicy melting pot of cultures. Immerse yourself in the colorful Art Deco district, vibrant nightlife, and beaches for sun-worshipers and water sport enthusiasts alike. Put some money on the horses at Hialeah Park, one of racings oldest and most prominent tracks, right next to a lake full of pink flamingos. Go adventuring in the Everglades, looking for ‘gators and manatees, canoeing through mangrove tunnels, or paddling a sea kayak through the “10,000 islands”. Flashy and full of life, it’s a great place to play.
