Today, you’ll sail into Soufrière, the original capital of Saint Lucia, which is dramatically located in the Qualibou Depression, the crater of a dormant volcano. Here, you can indulge in therapeutic mud baths and sulphur springs, as well as admire the iconic pair of lava domes, Gros Piton and Petit Piton – a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Be sure to sample the delicious local cuisine, savouring anything from green figs and salt fish to traditional callaloo soup made with fresh crab or shrimp.

Known as Les Saintes, delightful Îles des Saintes presents a miniature archipelago of eight tropical islands with a distinctive fusion of French and Caribbean culture. Discover quaint villages revealing a collection of petite stone buildings and small, white-sand beaches. Don’t miss a visit to Fort Napoleon, a significant historical site, which also provides incredible views of one of the islands.

The capital and largest city of Antigua and Barbuda, a twin-island nation located in the Eastern Caribbean, St. John’s welcomes with a vibrant and fascinating blend of rich history, beautiful beaches and a lively culture. St John’s is also the gateway to other key attractions on the island, such as the historic Nelson’s Dockyard and Shirley Heights.

Welcome to Nevis and Saint Kitts, a dual-island nation in the Lesser Antilles archipelago of West Indies in the Caribbean Sea; Nevis is the smaller island of the two, dominated by a volcanic peak.  Fringed with unspoilt curves of powdery white sand, this beautiful island is dotted with Georgian-era buildings, remnants of former sugar plantations and casual, beach-shack eateries.

Today, you’ll arrive in Gustavia, the capital of the chic Caribbean Island of Saint Barthélemy (also known as St. Barths).

Stroll along the streets and uncover distinctive treasures in the historic downtown shopping region and photograph the city’s iconic brightly painted, wooden houses. Be sure to also feast on the unique local cuisine, a delicious blend of French and Creole influences.

The island of Virgin Gorda, so named because it resembles a reclining woman, is part of the gorgeous British Virgin Islands and popular for its laid-back pace and picturesque landscapes. Among the incredible natural wonders of Virgin Gorda, The Baths are arguably the most famous; a breathtaking series of pools and grottoes created by a collection of massive granite boulders, formed by volcanic eruptions.
