Our epic exploration of the Caribbean sets sail from New York City, with a rejuvenating sea day that brings us to Bermuda’s historic Royal Naval Dockyard. Once a key strategic location for the British fleet, it’s now the setting for exciting entertainment venues and great restaurants. Two more days at sea transport us to St. John’s, the bustling capital of Antigua and Barbuda, before we continue to Pointe-à-Pitre in Guadeloupe, for a flavor of its rich Creole culture, followed by Castries in Saint Lucia, which boasts palm-fringed beaches and lively markets. Now to tick off two islands once ruled by the Dutch: admire the pastel-colored architecture of Willemstad in Curaçao and explore the cacti-studded dunes near Oranjestad in Aruba. A day at sea brings Jamaica into view. Here, we visit Port Antonio, beloved by A-listers for its hidden coves, mountainous coastline, and waterfalls, before we set sail for our end destination: Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
