The Unusual Caribbean
Calling on a desirable set of boutique and off-the-beaten-path islands such as Bonaire, Guadeloupe, Dominica, St. Vincent and Trinidad, Riviera and Sirena spend the winter season sailing our uncommon Caribbean. These attractive voyages create ideal escapes in the sun: exclusive and cultural destinations blessed with paradise beaches and yet not filled with crowds. There are also several unique cruises that begin and end in Barbados – a cultured island that really does have it all – as well as happy and languid Aruba for those seeking to extend their chic island getaway a little longer. Two Panama Canal voyages featuring an overnight in the standout new port of Panama City, a gleaming multicultural capital of Central America, crown this Caribbean season.
