Lively San Juan is the departure point for this voyage as we make our way towards glamorous Gustavia in St. Barts. In Pointe-à-Pitre, discover a unique blend of French and Caribbean influences, before we hop over to historic Kingstown on the island of St. Vincent, followed by Scarborough in Tobago, home to the 18th-century Fort King George. A relaxing day at sea follows before we call at Iles du Salut for Devil’s Island, a fascinating former penal colony in French Guiana. Two more sea days bring us to Fortaleza, Brazil, a beach lover’s dream, then another sea day sets us up for arrival in the colorful coastal town of Recife, and Maceió, a paradise of natural wonders and delicious street food. More time at sea brings us to Rio de Janeiro, where you have three nights to enjoy the samba rhythms and elaborate parades of the world-famous Rio Carnival. Visit the Coffee Museum in Santos before two sea days bring us to Montevideo in Uruguay, followed by an overnight in Argentina’s energetic capital Buenos Aires.

Itinerary

01.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

jan 27, 2029

departure 6:00 PM

Puerto Rico's capital makes a strong impression – even before you arrive on shore. Sailing into the harbor, keep an eye out for El Morro, a 16th-century citadel and UNESCO World Heritage Site, Castillo San Cristobal, a fearsome fortress built to scare away invaders, and La Fortaleza, the impressive official residence of the Governor of Puerto Rico. Once ashore, step back in time along cobbled streets and through squares flanked by pastel-colored Spanish colonial buildings. Or take your pick of beaches – will it be the golden-sanded Isla Verde, the snorkeler-approved El Escambrón, or the laid-back Ocean Park? Just don't leave San Juan without sampling a piña colada (or two) – the tropical cocktail was invented here in the 1950s.

02.

Gustavia, French West Indies

jan 28, 2029

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

Anchor

2 EXCURSIONS

The pretty, red-roofed harbor town of Gustavia is the beating heart of stylish St. Barts. High-end boutiques, ritzy restaurants, and iconic cocktail bars pepper the palm-fringed streets, while mere minutes from the town center, you'll find pristine stretches of sand and sparkling waters. Take your pick from dozens of beaches: Anse de Flamands presents camera-ready scenery, Baie de St-Jean has chic beachside bistros, and Anse du Grand Cul-de-Sac is a snorkeler's paradise. Just don't be surprised if you encounter an A-lister or two – the French-speaking Caribbean island has long been the preferred playground of billionaires and big-name movie stars.

there are 2 optional shore excursions at this port

03.

Pointe-a-Pitre, French West Indies

jan 29, 2029

8:00 AM - 5:00 PM

The lively French-Caribbean city of Pointe-à-Pitre sits at the heart of the butterfly-shaped Guadeloupe archipelago. Beautiful beaches, turquoise lagoons, and lush jungle are a short drive from the port, but it's worth carving some time out to explore the pulsing center. Stroll the narrow streets to discover bold murals and colorful Creole houses; visit the famous Saint-Antoine Market for punchy spices and heady aromas; sample local cuisine like accras (salt cod fritters) and ti' punch (a traditional rum cocktail); and admire the distinctive yellow façade of the 19th-century Cathédrale Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul.

04.

Kingstown, St Vincent And Grenadines

jan 30, 2029

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

A gem-like strand of 32 islands, of which only nine are inhabited, St. Vincent and the Grenadines is among the most idyllic and least touristy of all the Caribbean island nations. At 18 miles long, St. Vincent is the largest isle, regarded for its black-sand beaches and sky-blue waters - paradise for leisure sailors and a wonderland for scuba divers and snorkelers. The imposing, still-active La Soufriere volcano and its surrounding waterfalls and rainforest make St. Vincent a haven for eco-adventures with exceptional hiking trails and a spectacular Botanical Garden - the Caribbean's oldest. In the capital city of Kingstown, cobblestone streets lined with arched stone doorways and magnificent churches recall both French and British colonization, as Fort Charlotte overlooks the city from its perch 600 feet above the sea.

05.

Scarborough, Trinidad And Tobago

jan 31, 2029

7:00 AM - 5:00 PM

From its gorgeous beaches and colorful marine life to its lush rainforest interior, tiny Tobago is the quintessential, picturesque Caribbean island; and it is a world apart from bigger, brasher Trinidad with which it forms a twin-nation. Tobago's sleepy capital Scarborough is a place for gentle ambling; take in the Scarborough Botanical Gardens whose 17 acres feature orchids, silk-cotton trees and vibrant bromeliads; and visit Fort King George, built by the British in 1777, beautifully maintained and offering expansive sea views. Then explore further afield. About eight miles wide and 30 long, the island is easy to get around by bus or taxi. To the west is Pigeon Point with one of the most renowned beaches; to the north is equally striking Stonehaven Bay. Follow hiking trails in the lush forests; join a tour of Tobago Cocoa plantation; enjoy a glass-bottomed boat ride to vibrant Buccoo Reef.

Iles du Salut (Devil`s Island), French Guiana

feb 02, 2029

8:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Anchor

Off the coast of French Guiana lies a small volcanic archipelago of three palm-covered islands. Their name, Iles du Salut, or Salvation Islands, belies a sinister history. In the 19th and 20th centuries, they were transformed into one of the world's most notorious penal colonies, a brutal purgatory for France's criminal class. The most infamous of the trio is the tiny Ile du Diable – Devil's Island – where political prisoners including Alfred Dreyfus were held captive, surrounded by shark-infested waters. These days, the island is inaccessible due to its rocky and hazardous shoreline, but visitors can explore Ile Royale, the largest of the Iles du Salut, which houses a historic prison complex and offers views across the water to the legendary Devil's Island.

Fortaleza, Brazil

feb 05, 2029

7:00 AM - 5:00 PM

In the thrumming capital of the state of Ceará, miles of caramel-colored shores stretch along the crescent-shaped mouth of the Pajeú River. This is the place to settle in for caipirinhas on the sands at one of the many barracas (beach stalls) and soak up Brazilian beach life (head to the north end of Praia do Futuro for the best spots). In this dynamic country, a cultural fix is never far away; here that is the Dragão Center, a head-turning contemporary art gallery and fascinating museum dedicated to the traditional way of life. Pick up hand-crafted ceramics and lacework at the central market to bring some mementos home.

Recife, Brazil

feb 07, 2029

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

Rio de Janeiro may capture the limelight when it comes to carnival, but Recife's huge street party, held every February, is where Brazilians go to dance. Maracatu drum orchestras parade through the old town keeping the beat, accompanied by energetic frevo dancers. Life revolves around the bars and restaurants in the Portuguese and Dutch colonial center and on the beach at Boa Viagem, which is lapped by waters calmed by the reefs after which the city takes its name and the gateway to a coast with some of the area's best seaside destinations, including Porto de Galinhas.

13.

Maceio, Brazil

feb 08, 2029

7:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Maceió, the Indigenous word for “spring”, with its watery backdrop of cyclic lagoons and lush mangroves, is a historic port with origins in 19th-century sugar trade. Today, you'll find a modern beachfront city surrounded by powder-sand beaches strung along the coast either side of the harbour. But before you dive into those turquoise Atlantic waters, take in the dockside's Belle Époque buildings, the vibrant craft market at adjoining Pajucara beach, and several enticing museums including the Théo Brandão Anthropology and Folklore Museum, set in a renovated seafront mansion. There's also a striking sculpture by Oscar Niemeyer, architect of the country's capital, Brasilia.

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

feb 11, 2029

8:00 AM - 11:59 PM

Cradled between verdant mountains and long swaths of golden sands, Brazil's seaside metropolis never fails to captivate with its combination of striking natural beauty and cosmopolitan charisma. Get up close to the iconic, open-armed Christ the Redeemer statue andsoak in the views of the city unfurling below you; mingle with friendly cariocas (Rio residents) over caipirinhas (cocktails made from sugar cane liquor, sugar, lime, and ice) on Copacabana Beach; and stroll the winding streets of the historic Santa Teresa neighborhood. Should you happen to visit during the world-famous Carnival, prepare to get swept up insamba rhythms and street parties.

Santos, Brazil

feb 14, 2029

8:00 AM - 9:00 PM

Set along the coast of São Paulo state, Santos heaves with its century-old rich and diverse history. Founded in 1546, the city holds the distinction of being one of the oldest in Brazil. Originally settled by Portuguese explorers, Santos quickly became a vital port for trade and maritime activities, notably during the colonial era, when it played a crucial role in the export of commodities like coffee and sugar and the Santos Coffee Exchange (Bolsa Oficial de Café) remains a landmark, reflecting the town's historical ties to the coffee industry. As one of the more affluent towns along the coast, the town's historical importance is apparant everywhere; just take a stroll through the pretty streets to see the well-preserved colonial architecture and buildings reflecting the cultural influences of its past. Today, Santos is a dynamic blend of past and present; a bustling city known for its thriving port, beautiful beaches, and vibrant urban atmosphere with a healthy respect for its maritime legacy.

Montevideo, Uruguay

feb 17, 2029

8:00 AM - 7:00 PM

Montevideo is Uruguay's cultural, political, and economic epicenter; a lively capital of eclectic influences. Life in the city revolves around the Plaza Independencia, which houses several notable landmarks, including the 27-storey Palacio Salvo and the 19th-century Teatro Solís. For a sense of Montevideo's rich history, stroll the cobbled streets of the once-walled Ciudad Vieja (Old City), where interwar Art Deco landmarks sit alongside ornate neoclassical churches and Spanish colonial homes. Stop by the historic Mercado del Puerto to indulge in traditional Uruguayan asado cooked over open fire parrillas, and a glass or two of medio y medio (equal parts dry white and sweet sparkling wine).

23.

Buenos Aires, Argentina

feb 18, 2029

8:00 AM - 11:59 PM

Often dubbed the “Paris of South America”, Buenos Aires swells with a European flair, which you'll notice in the historic Beaux-Arts mansions, Haussman-style boulevards, and rich café culture. But the soul of the Argentinian capital is distinctly Latin American, with a pulse so palpable that you'll find it impossible to resist getting swept up. From sultry tango performances to the sacred Argentine ritual of asado, the chants and cheers of fútbol fans to the robust wine culture – this is a city underpinned by the pure passion of porteños (Buenos Aires residents).
