Spain, Sevilla Cruise from Cadiz to Fort-de-France — 13 Days

Cadiz, Spain

Cádiz is one of Europe’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, set on a narrow peninsula where Atlantic light reaches every street. Its compact old quarter is made for unhurried exploration, with watchtowers, shaded plazas and the cathedral’s golden dome. At the Mercado Central, fishmongers display the day’s catch; nearby taverns serve fino sherry and local seafood. Beyond the walls, La Caleta beach and the seafront promenade offer a bracing taste of Cádiz’s maritime life.

At Sea (At Sea)

Portsmouth Dominica, Dominica

Portsmouth, Dominica’s second-largest town, lies beside sheltered Prince Rupert Bay, with the forested Cabrits rising at its northern edge. Take a guided boat along the Indian River, where mangroves and overhanging palms frame the quiet route inland. On the peninsula, Cabrits National Park preserves Fort Shirley, an 18th-century British garrison overlooking the bay. Choose among river scenery, coastal views and the fort’s restored buildings. Portsmouth suits visitors who value landscape and history over resort polish.

Fort-de-France, Martinique

Fort-de-France puts Martinique’s French-Caribbean character within easy reach of the quay. The island’s capital wraps around a sheltered bay, with cafés, shops and the covered Grand Marché near the waterfront. The iron-framed Schoelcher Library was shipped from Paris in the 19th century. Nearby, Saint-Louis Cathedral reflects a city repeatedly rebuilt after fires and earthquakes. Beyond town, roads climb toward Balata Gardens and lead to rum distilleries and beaches beneath volcanic peaks.
