  1. Day 1

    Miami, USA

    Miami rewards travelers who look beyond its cruise terminals. South Beach pairs pastel Art Deco hotels with Ocean Drive; Little Havana serves Cuban coffee and music along Calle Ocho. The Pérez Art Museum Miami and nearby Design District reveal the city’s creative ambition. For a change of pace, Biscayne Bay and the Everglades place vivid natural landscapes within reach.

  2. Day 4

    Gustavia St Barths, France

    Gustavia makes a polished first impression, but its appeal is more than designer boutiques and superyachts. Swedish rule left its mark in the town’s name and the ruins of Fort Gustav above the harbor. From the waterfront, cafés, galleries and shops sit within easy walking distance, while Shell Beach lies just beyond the center. Come ashore for French-Caribbean style, with history close at hand.

  3. Day 5

    St Johns Antigua

    Antigua rewards a day ashore with more than its celebrated beaches. St John’s, the compact capital, makes an easy starting point. Drive east to Nelson’s Dockyard, a remarkably preserved Georgian naval base and UNESCO World Heritage site. English Harbour’s sheltered waters and restored stone buildings reveal the island’s maritime past. Or trade history for a swim at one of the island’s many coves, from resort beaches to quieter shores.

  4. Day 6

    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.

  5. Day 7

    Castries

    Castries brings Saint Lucia’s capital close to the water, with cruise ships entering a sheltered harbor beneath green hills. Start at the lively Castries Market, where vendors sell spices, produce, and local crafts. Nearby, the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception and Derek Walcott Square offer a quieter glimpse of the city’s past. For island views, visit Morne Fortune; for a beach day, arrange transport beyond town.

  6. Day 8

    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.

  7. Day 9

    Bequia Island

    Port Elizabeth sits on Bequia’s Admiralty Bay, where fishing boats and yachts share a sheltered anchorage. Step ashore into a compact waterfront of cafés and shops, then follow the Belmont Walkway towards Princess Margaret Beach. Bequia’s boatbuilding tradition remains visible in its working yards and local craft. Come for unhurried island life, swimming in clear water and views across the Grenadines.

  8. Day 10

    St Georges Grenada, Grenada

    St George’s is one of the Caribbean’s most handsome harbour towns, its pastel waterfront curving around a horseshoe-shaped bay. Walk the Carenage, where fishing boats and yachts share the water beneath Fort George. Grand Anse Beach lies a short drive south, with clear water and a long sweep of sand. In town, market stalls sell nutmeg, cocoa and cinnamon, helping earn Grenada its title, the Spice Isle.

  9. Day 11

    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.

  10. Day 13

    Basseterre St Kitts

    Begin in Basseterre, St Kitts’s compact capital, where Georgian buildings and busy market streets reveal the island’s layered past. At Independence Square, once a slave market, pause among mature trees before browsing nearby shops and cafés. Then leave town for Mount Liamuiga’s volcanic slopes, former sugar estates and beaches of dark volcanic sand. Brimstone Hill Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage site, rewards the drive with stone ramparts and wide Caribbean views.

  11. Day 14

    Norman Island BVI

    Norman Island rewards travellers who arrive by sea. Its sheltered Bight is one of the British Virgin Islands’ best-known anchorages, framed by steep green hills and clear water. At Treasure Point, three sea caves invite snorkellers to explore their shadowed entrances and bright shallows. Come ashore for a beachside pause, or stay aboard and watch boats settle into the bay. The island’s pirate lore adds intrigue, but its real treasure is the water.

  12. Day 17

    Miami, USA

    Miami rewards travelers who look beyond its cruise terminals. South Beach pairs pastel Art Deco hotels with Ocean Drive; Little Havana serves Cuban coffee and music along Calle Ocho. The Pérez Art Museum Miami and nearby Design District reveal the city’s creative ambition. For a change of pace, Biscayne Bay and the Everglades place vivid natural landscapes within reach.
