Good to Know
1 nights hotel in Miami plus 10 night cruiseItinerary
Miami, Florida
Following your flight to Miami you will be transferred to your hotel for a one night stay. In the morning you will be transferred to the port to board your ship.
Welcome to Miami and the sweep of South Beach – backdrop to every iconic Miami movie, and forefront of Latin American culture. Stroll through pastel-hued geometric buildings in the art deco district, to graffiti mural masterpieces at Wynwood Walls. Watch Latino life unfold in Little Havana – the heartbeat of this great city – where walk-up windows sell café cortadito, sweet sugarcane juice, hatuey beer and guava ice-cream. Watch passionate locals discuss politics, play dominoes and smoke cigars. Shimmy at a salsa class, shop designer boutiques and race marlin and sharks by speedboat. Then slow your pace to uncover rare and endangered species at the Everglades National Park outdoor oasis. You’ll find the Miami dream is real – and it’s not just Cuban heels that will give you a spring in your step.
At Sea
Enjoy the fabulous facilities on board.
Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas
Savour a fusion of heritage in sparkly St Thomas. Roam a flawless Capital teeming with local culture, smart boutiques, American hallmarks, streets bearing Danish names, and former hideouts for the notorious pirates of Blackbeard and Bluebeard. Climb up to historic landmarks, catch the cable car for serious views and savour the Frenchtown quarter famed for its restaurants. Ferry to scenic conservatory of St. John, float around diamond-sand beaches with limpid blue waters and venture on forested yomps through rugged hilltops. Dreamy Caribbean warmth soaked in Danish roots and American influence – this USVI is a curious culture clash with plenty of personality.
Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadaloupe
Pretty Point-à-Pitre flutters between the two wing-like islets of of Guadeloupe’s butterfly-shaped island. Meander through the leafy Victory Square to lively markets and chic boutiques or explore the award-winning Memorial ACTe. Cross the bridge to Basse-Terre to explore rain forests, waterfalls, French fort ruins and sleepy La Grande Soufrière volcano. Or venture to the east island, Grand-Terre, to hit the multi-coloured beaches, summit sky-high Castle Point, then seek sanctuary in museums for Nobel-winning poet and diplomat, Alexis Léger for an afternoon of on-point pleasures.
Castries, St. Lucia
Wind your way through the romantic island of St Lucia. Hike up the majestic UNESCO-listed Pitons, wallow in a volcanic mud bath, lounge on black sand beaches, explore botanical gardens and venture into a tropical jungle scattered with banana, coconut and mango plantations. Choose between calm Caribbean or choppy Atlantic seas to skim through waters by catamaran, private boat or kayak. Refresh beneath a waterfall, watch gliding whales and enjoy freshly caught mahi mahi with local Piton beer. Or just relax into an inner glow of serenity as you unwind in this tranquil tropical isle.
Little Bay, Montserrat
Diminutive in stature but big on ambition, Little Bay is a testament to the resilience of Montserrat, where the 1997 eruption of Soufrière Hills Volcano turned fairy-tale capital Plymouth to ash. Today, a new city rises amid the emerald folds and transcendent beaches of the northern coast, where coral gardens bloom in Caribbean currents and humpback whales weave between the waves. Jungle hikes and kayaking adventures are rewarded with sublime sunsets in tropical beach bars that pay homage to the island’s musical legacy. Venture to the ruins of Plymouth and stand humbled before skeletal buildings submerged in a torrent of volcanic debris, then discover the forces of nature at the Montserrat Volcano Observatory for up-close views of the monstrous crater.
St. John, US Virgin Islands
Spidery tendrils of the coast are dotted with quiet coves and hidden harbours in sublime Saint John, the smallest of the US Virgin Islands. Tune in to island time on Trunk Bay, where turquoise waters caress powder-soft sands; this is what Caribbean dreams are made of. The motherly arms of Virgin Islands National Park embrace two-thirds of the isle, an emerald expanse of protected forest etched with mountain valleys, indigenous rock art and the ruins of old sugar plantations, crisscrossed by a web of scenic hiking trails. Kayak into the knotted mangroves around Hurricane Hole or plunge below the waves at Maho Bay, where turtles and rays sluice through crystal-clear waters.

Your cruise comes to an end as you sail into Miami harbour. You will be transferred to the airport for your flight back to Dublin.
