  1. Day 1

    Port Canaveral, USA

    Cape Canaveral pairs Florida’s Atlantic coast with the drama of American spaceflight. Visit Kennedy Space Center for rockets, launch pads and mission stories that bring exploration within reach. Closer to shore, Cocoa Beach offers miles of sand, surf shops and a relaxed Florida rhythm. Nature lovers can seek manatees, migratory birds and quiet beaches at nearby Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. Choose your day: a close encounter with the space age, or Atlantic air and open water.

  2. Day 3

    Puerto Plata-Amber Cove

    Puerto Plata is the Dominican Republic’s north-coast city of Atlantic views and Victorian-era streets. Parque Central and the Cathedral of San Felipe anchor the old town; the 16th-century Fortaleza San Felipe guards the waterfront. Mount Isabel de Torres rises above town, its summit known for botanical gardens and wide coastal views. Nearby beaches offer an easy extension, but the historic center rewards a walk and a stop at the Amber Museum.

  3. Day 4

    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.

  4. Day 5

    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.

  5. Day 6

    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 7

    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 8

    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.

  8. Day 10

    Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas

    Great Stirrup Cay is Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island in the Berry Islands of the Bahamas. Expect pale sand, clear water and a relaxed beach day. Swim from shore, snorkel over coral, or take a kayak along the coast. Beach cabanas provide shade and privacy, while the island’s compact size makes it easy to find your place. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, then choose between a quiet patch of sand and time on the water.

  9. Day 11

    Port Canaveral, USA

    Cape Canaveral pairs Florida’s Atlantic coast with the drama of American spaceflight. Visit Kennedy Space Center for rockets, launch pads and mission stories that bring exploration within reach. Closer to shore, Cocoa Beach offers miles of sand, surf shops and a relaxed Florida rhythm. Nature lovers can seek manatees, migratory birds and quiet beaches at nearby Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. Choose your day: a close encounter with the space age, or Atlantic air and open water.
