  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

    St Thomas Island USVI

    Charlotte Amalie brings St Thomas’s history into view, from Danish colonial streets to the harbor’s busy waterfront. Explore the compact old town, where Fort Christian and pastel facades line narrow streets. Ride up to Mountain Top for broad views of Magens Bay and neighboring islands. St Thomas also offers easy access to beaches, duty-free shopping, and boat trips across the US Virgin Islands. Allow time for steep streets and port-area traffic.

  3. Day 5

    Anguilla Island

    Island Harbour is a working fishing village on Anguilla’s quiet eastern shore, where brightly painted boats rest beside the beach. From the waterfront, a short boat ride reaches Scilly Cay, a tiny offshore island known for its beachside dining. Come for fresh seafood, unhurried views and a glimpse of local life beyond the island’s busier resorts. The appeal is simple: salt air, clear water and a village pace.

  4. Day 6

    Saint-Pierre Martinique (Ask Travel Agent)

  5. Day 7

    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.

  6. Day 8

    Philipsburg St Maarten, Netherlands

    Philipsburg rewards a shore day spent beyond the cruise terminal. It sits on a narrow strip between Great Bay and the Great Salt Pond. The Dutch-side capital is compact and easy to explore on foot. Front Street pairs duty-free shops with the 1793 courthouse, while the Boardwalk follows Great Bay Beach. Cross the open border into French Saint-Martin for French bakeries, lively markets and another stretch of coast.

  7. Day 9

    San Juan

    San Juan puts a remarkable piece of Caribbean history within easy reach of your ship. Founded in 1521, Old San Juan is a compact district of blue cobbles, pastel façades and Spanish colonial landmarks. Walk its steep lanes to El Morro, the 16th-century fortress that guards the harbor. From its ramparts, the Atlantic comes into view. Beyond the old walls, cafés, galleries and contemporary restaurants show a city still shaped by its maritime past.

  8. Day 10

    Tortola Island BVI

    Tortola gives you a vivid introduction to the British Virgin Islands: green, steep-sided hills rise above a sheltered Caribbean harbour. In Road Town, browse Main Street, visit the J.R. O’Neal Botanic Gardens, or pause at a waterfront café. Beyond town, winding roads lead to Cane Garden Bay and island viewpoints. Ferries make nearby islands accessible, while Tortola itself rewards an unhurried day of beaches, scenery and local rum.

  9. Day 11

    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.

  10. Day 13

    Providenciales Island

    Providenciales rewards travelers who look beyond its famous shoreline. Grace Bay’s long sweep of white sand and clear, shallow water has earned international acclaim. Offshore, the barrier reef brings excellent snorkeling and diving within easy reach. Inland, Chalk Sound’s turquoise lagoons make a striking contrast to the open Atlantic. Choose a quiet beach morning, then explore local seafood and island life around Blue Hills or Turtle Cove.

  11. Day 15

    Key West, USA

    Key West rewards travelers who leave the ship and follow the island’s easy pace. At the southern tip of the Florida Keys, this compact city pairs pastel architecture with a maritime past. Visit the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum, browse Duval Street, or watch the sun set from Mallory Square. Explore Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park, where a Civil War fort meets a beach. Its Atlantic waters offer a refreshing contrast to town.

  12. Day 16

    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.
