ST. JOHN’S, ANTIGUA
ARRIVE: 8AM | DEPART: 5PM

Colorful St. John’s is a welcoming paradise and home to 365 white sandy beaches and kitschy beach bars around every corner.

Like any tropical destination, St. John’s is perfect for lounging beachside, snorkeling and diving, or hiking to see Fort Barrington’s watchful eye overlooking the city. Historic sites like Fort James and St. John’s Cathedral make for fantastic tours, leaving plenty of time in your day for tasty Caribbean cuisine and seafood, where the fresh catches of the day rule the local menus. RELAX. INDULGE. FROLIC.

 

TUE, FEB 16, 2021
FORT-DE-FRANCE, MARTINIQUE
ARRIVE: 8AM | DEPART: 5PM

You’ll quickly be swept up by Fort-de-France’s energy and natural beauty, which alternates between crystal-blue waters and laid-back beaches to dense, tropical rainforest. Whether you’re touring a distillery and sipping authentic local rum or hiking the lush trails of Martinique Natural Regional Park, the Fort-de-France area offers just enough to do without being overwhelmed by the options.

Feeling like doing nothing? Set up on the beach with an umbrella. Want to step back in time to French colonial occupation in the Caribbean? Walk the expertly-preserved grounds of the ruins of Chateau Dubuc. Hungry for Creole cuisine, crab cakes, or octopus stew? Martinique’s foodie scene is adventurous without being too frou-frou. Whatever your mood, Martinique will rise to meet you there.

Today, we’ll also be celebrating Mardi Gras!

EXPLORE. UNWIND. FEAST.

WED, FEB 17, 2021
CASTRIES, SAINT LUCIA
ARRIVE: 8AM | DEPART: 5PM

Saint Lucia offers a different side of the Caribbean than you’ve ever seen before. Castries is a walkable, bustling town. Head to Derek Walcott Square to relax after exploring the town, and don’t miss the historic cathedrals in the heart of the city. Of course, you have to try traditional Saint Lucian food, including saltfish and green banana, the region’s signature dish.

Saint Lucia itself is sprawling and mountainous, protected yet easily explorable. Downtown Castries will easily fill your day, but you could also venture further inland for thrills and outdoor adventures, like hiking one of the volcanic Pitons, a spire-like mountain promising incredible views of Saint Lucia from the summit. Take a mud bath at Sulphur Spring Park, or simply swim and snorkel at Pigeon Island National Park or the beautiful Reduit Beach. DISCOVER. CHILL. SHINE.

THU, FEB 18, 2021
BRIDGETOWN, BARBADOS
ARRIVE: 8AM | DEPART: 5PM

We’ll dock in Bridgetown, the capital of Barbados, and an important port city in the Southern Caribbean. What’s not to love about Barbados? Miles of sandy beaches, turquoise island waters, and an abundance of plantations and historic sites to tour mean you’ll find plenty to occupy your time here. Be sure to try traditional Barbadian dishes like cou cou and macaroni pie, and make time to enjoy a rum tasting or distillery tour.

Be captivated by protected species like the West African green monkey at the Barbados Wildlife Reserve or head east to Bathsheba for plentiful chances to snorkel, surf, and dive. COLORFUL. HISTORIC. LAID BACK.

A DAY OF SHENANIGANS AT SEA

Our final day at sea promises to be one to remember. Soak up those last rays of sunshine, get that much-needed massage you’ve been putting off, or join your playmates around the pool for our final V-Dance of the week. However you choose to spend your day, you’ll do it surrounded by 2000+ new friends. SAVOR. SOAR. ENJOY.
