About the trip
This Caribbean cruise sets off and returns to Bridgetown, Barbados, tracing a route through the southern Lesser Antilles and the ABC Islands. After leaving Barbados, the ship calls at Willemstad and Kralendijk, capitals of Curacao and Bonaire, known for their Dutch colonial architecture and well-preserved coral reefs.
The itinerary continues through Guadeloupe’s Pointe-à-Pitre, Dominica’s Roseau and Fort de France on Martinique, islands where rainforest and volcanic peaks sit close to colourful towns. A couple of days in St Vincent and St Lucia follow, with ports like Kingstown and Castries providing access to vibrant local markets and the chance for a walk up the Pitons from shore.
This cruise, run by Ambassador Cruise Line on Renaissance, offers a passage through a cluster of islands each with its own character. The ship is small enough to slip into harbours that larger vessels bypass. The pace allows time to take in the scent of salt and spice, and the occasional echo of calypso from shore, before heading on to the next island.
