Your exciting Caribbean cruise begins in beautiful Barbados and its bustling capital, Bridgetown, the island-state's political, economic and cultural centre. From here, you’ll be transferred to your Emerald Cruises luxury yacht and embark on an exciting voyage in search of paradise.

Please book your flight to arrive into Bridgetown prior to 07:00 PM.

This morning, you’ll depart Bridgetown and set sail for Speightstown. This charming town, located on the north-west coast of Barbados is famed for its rich history, vibrant culture, and picturesque setting. Speightstown features an eclectic mix of colonial-era buildings, colourful shops, and modest residences. Many buildings here reflect the island's rich architectural heritage and are painted in distinctive pastel hues.

Soufrière was the original capital of Saint Lucia and 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 Saint Lucia’s iconic pair of lava domes, Gros Piton and Petit Piton – a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Be sure to sample the delicious local cuisine, savouring everything from green figs and salt fish to traditional callaloo soup made with fresh crab or shrimp.

Home to around 5,000 inhabitants, the village of Saint-Pierre was once almost wiped off the map in under two minutes during an eruption of the Mount Pelée volcano in 1902. In more recent years, Saint-Pierre (also known as ‘Little Paris’) has been named as the 101st ‘City of Art and History’. A visit to Saint-Pierre will allow you to discover a few remnants of Martinique’s colonial history: the old theatre, the ruins of the island’s fort and the dungeon of Cyparis, as well as the wonderful community that it is today, facing a gorgeous bay and nestled in the foothills of Mount Pelée.

Welcome to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, is a stunningly beautiful, dual island- nation, scattered across the sparkling Caribbean Sea. Your first port of call is Tobago Cays, an awe-inspiring archipelago, known universally as the ultimate paradise destination. Naturally, Tobago Cays is a popular yachting anchorage spot, where the warm, sandy-bottomed aquamarine waters are teeming with turtles, tropical fish, stingrays, and starfish. One of the islands beyond the reef, Petit Tabac, is where the popular film franchise, ‘Pirates of the Caribbean,’ (2017) was partly filmed.

Today, you’ll arrive in Mayreau, the smallest of the Grenadines’ inhabited islands, measuring just four-square-kilometres (1.5-square-miles), with a population of approximately 250 inhabitants. From the quaint church and community centre at the top of the island’s highest hill, admire the spectacular island views. On a clear day, you can see both Grenada and Saint Vincent islands, along with the vivid colours of the coral reefs and surrounding waters.  

In the evening, you’ll sail for Union Island.

Union Island is renowned for its clear and calm turquoise waters and laid-back Caribbean lifestyle. Enjoy the stunning white -sand beaches lined with a tempting array of lively beachfront bars and restaurants, encircled by lush tropical mountains.  Today, why not spend a blissful day swimming and snorkelling off the yacht’s Marina Platform, enjoying Emerald Cruises array of exciting aquatic toys. During the night, you’ll sail to Kingstown.

The capital of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Kingstown comes clustered around the pretty bay on the island of Saint Vincent and offers excellent shopping and dining. You can also visit St. George’s Anglican Cathedral, an elegant Georgian-style church founded around 1820, resplendent with colourful stained-glass windows. In the evening, you’ll sail onwards to Bequia.

Discover Bequia Island, a hidden paradise amid Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, revealing idyllic, secluded spots and a distinct lack of traffic. This beautiful island offers visitors a chance to experience an authentic Caribbean lifestyle, without the hustle and bustle of mainstream beach tourism. Delight in exploring untouched pristine beaches and truly relax and unwind amid stunning nature
