gentle ocean waves. We reach Cruz Bay to explore the lush emerald trails of
the US Virgin Islands, and then at St. John’s to swim with stingrays and
savour Antigua’s culinary delights. Stroll through the beauty of
Terre-de-Haut before dipping into Philipsburg’s colourful emporiums, then
sailing on to historic San Juan.

Itinerary
Day 1, Miami, United StatesDeparture 17:00
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.

Day 3, Puerto Plata, Dominican RepublicArrival 09:00Departure 17:00
The queen of the “Silver Coast”, Puerto Plata is treasured for her soaring cloud-shrouded peaks and stunning shining beaches. Once famously plundered by pirates — you too can storm the 16th-century Fortaleza San Felipe fort — now is coveted by modern-day aficionados seeking her bounty of aged rum, robust cigars, and rich chocolate. Adventurers can soar to the top of the Pico Isabel de Torres 793 mt (2,602 ft), dare to off-road to the Waterfalls of Damajagua, or kite-surf, catamaran, and zip-line over the ocean. Pro tip: save time for a buzzy beach club to chill with coconut-fused libations.
Day 4, Catalina Island, Dominican RepublicArrival 09:00Departure 17:00
Mango-scented
reveries on flour-soft beaches. Tinkling ice cubes in rummy cocktails. Rainbow
marine life in crystalline coral gardens. Welcome to Catalina Island, an
earthly paradise where trails meander through fragrant forests and merengue
rhythms drift on the breeze. Fortune awaits in the sunken wreckage of Captain
Kidd’s ship, home of silent sponges and sentinel seahorses, an underwater
kingdom awaiting discovery.
Day 5, Charlotte Amalie (Saint Thomas), United States Virgin IslandsArrival 09:00Departure 19:00
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.
Day 6, St. John's (Antigua), Antigua and BarbudaArrival 09:00Departure 19:00
An adrenaline rush awaits. Swim with stingrays. Zip-line through lush forests. Walk across a gorge on a scenic suspension bridge. Sip excellent aged rums. Taste the island with a chef. Or stroll St. John's old town to tour cottages laden with cheerful fretwork. Explore British forts atop Shirley Heights and Goat Hill. Then rest and rejuvenate at one of the snow-white beaches.
Day 7, Marigot, St MartinArrival 08:00Departure 18:00
Shimmy into an island where you can visit two countries in a single morning. Call into a little French capital sprinkled with coral-coloured houses, lively markets, boulangeries and bistros. Wind down where turquoise waters roll gently over soft sandy shores and drop into chic Orient Bay for a dash of pizazz kissed by gentle trade winds. Shop chocolate and cheeses in Dutch emporiums. Hike the French slopes, Fort Amsterdam, horseback ride, dive deep underwater or pilot a gyrocopter to observe worthy eco-sites that shelter diverse flora and fauna. St Martin is a magnifique.
Day 8, San Juan, Puerto RicoArrival 08:00
Explore the oldest US city for a dose of Caribbean history, slice of Spanish culture and twist of American dream. Roam historic Old San Juan alleyways to glimpse centuries-old forts and colourful colonial buildings. Learn how to move, as locals sashay out the salsa to rhythmic reggae beats. Shop the boho streets or glamorous boutiques for artisan goods, decadent designers and hand-rolled cigars. Experience world-class surfing, explore a tropical rainforest, attend a private rum cocktail tasting and polish off empanadas. Then retire to one of the beautiful beaches to soak up crystal clear waters and, perhaps, one last rum cocktail.
