Barbados Cruise from Bridgetown — 6 Days

Bridgetown, Barbados

Bridgetown rewards travelers who leave the ship and walk into Barbados’ compact capital. Its UNESCO-listed Historic Bridgetown and Garrison trace the island’s colonial history; Broad Street offers a lively glimpse of daily life. Pause beside the Careenage, where boats thread the old harbour, then browse shops for local rum and Bajan crafts. Carlisle Bay’s pale sand and clear water lie just beyond the city.

Les Trois-Ilets (Ask Travel Agent)

Soufriere

Soufrière is a small town on Saint Lucia’s west coast, beneath the island’s twin Pitons. These volcanic peaks form a UNESCO World Heritage Site and shape the view from sea and shore. Visit Sulphur Springs, the Caribbean’s only drive-in volcano, then stroll the Diamond Botanical Gardens to Diamond Falls. For a more strenuous day, hike Gros Piton with a guide for sweeping island views.

Mayreau Island

Mayreau is one of the Grenadines’ smallest inhabited islands, with a village reached by a steep road from the shore. Its appeal is quiet beaches, clear water and Salt Whistle Bay, a sheltered crescent popular with sailors. Walk uphill to the compact settlement and its Catholic church, then look across the neighboring Grenadines. For a day ashore, Mayreau rewards unhurried exploration rather than a packed itinerary.
