About the cruise

Fly out to Barbados to join Azura on an island-hopping Caribbean adventure. With no less than eight destinations to discover, you will be able to experience the diversity of this beautiful archipelago. Your first taste of life here is found in Curacao. Its capital Willemstad is bursting with Dutch and Spanish Colonial architecture, as well as shops, restaurants and a floating market.

Next you sail into Aruba – offering contrasts of talcum-soft beaches and desert landscapes. The cosmopolitan waterfront city of Orangestad is a great place to shop, eat and relax. On Catalina Island, you can live the archetypal Caribbean dream – lazing on white sands and snorkelling in exotic, coral-filled waters. Whilst in Tortola you can witness more rugged, undiscovered scenes of tropical beauty amidst the rainforests of Mount Sage National Park.

The tiny island of St. Maarten has a French/Dutch divide, so you’ll find narrow steegjies, courtyard cafes and chic boutiques alongside colourful Creole gingerbread houses. From here you cruise on to St. Kitts – a classic Caribbean destination, known for its scenic railway, deserted beaches, sleepy villages, lush rainforest and sugarcane fields exist in perfect harmony.

Another island blessed with equal measures of natural beauty is St. Lucia. Cloaked in tropical greenery and exotic flowers, its crowning glory is the dramatic twin peaks of Les Pitons.

Upon reaching Grenada, you can decide for yourself whether it really does have one of the world’s prettiest harbours. Horse-shoe shaped and set in a volcanic crater by the capital St George’s, it is your gateway to pristine beaches, mountains, valleys, lakes and forests. Finally you return to Barbados for a chance to meet the famous turtle residents and see the Concorde Experience before you fly back to the UK.
