Voyage Itinerary

9 February

Setting sail from La Romana

La Romana is situated on the south east coast of the Dominican Republic, with several nearby attractions worth your time. Next to the sprawling Casa de Campo resort you'll find the pretty tourist village of Altos de Chavón, while the beaches of Isla Saona and Isla Catalina are a short boat ride away.

10 February

Dominican Republic: Punta Cana

Punta Cana is the broad swathe of coastline where the majority of the Dominican Republic’s resorts are clustered. The beaches are stunning, if rather overdeveloped in places, while inland attractions include the beautiful Ojos Indígenas ecological reserve.

11 February

British Virgin Islands: Spanish Town (Virgin Gorda)

Languid, laid-back Virgin Gorda is blessed with beautiful beaches and wonderfully friendly people. Life proceeds at a slower pace here, and highlights include The Baths, an unusual collection of granite boulders, grottoes and pools on the island’s southwest shore.

12 February

Montserrat: Little Bay

Montserrat garnered global attention in 1995 when the Soufrière Hills volcano erupted, burying the island’s capital, Plymouth. Although an exclusion zone is still in place in the south, visitors are often surprised by how lush and unspoilt the rest of the island is, home to a colourful variety of birdlife.

13 February

Guadeloupe: Deshaies

14 February

Dominica: Roseau

The island of Dominica stands out from the rest of the Caribbean, a rugged natural paradise that remains blissfully free of mass market tourism. The capital, Roseau, is pleasant enough, but the island interior offers so much more, including thick jungle, bubbling hot springs, cascading waterfalls and abundant birdlife.

Barbados: Speightstown

16 February

Arriving in Fort-de-France

The volcanic French Caribbean island of Martinique is a land of contrasts, from the lush rainforests of the north to the busy streets of the capital, Fort-de-France. There are plenty of lovely beaches geared towards relaxation, and the French influence also means that the cuisine is a cut above the usual Caribbean fare.
