Aboard Explora I with Explora Journeys
Cruise Overview
Miami is one of the world’s most popular holiday spots.
It has so much to offer; from its countless beach areas, to culture and museums, from spa and shopping days out, to endless cuban restaurants and cafes.
Miami is a multicultural city that has something to offer to everyone.
Guatemala's short Caribbean shoreline doesn't generate the buzz of those of neighboring Belize and Mexico.
The coast weighs in at a scant 74 mi (123 km), and this mostly highland country wears its indigenous culture on its sleeve and has historically looked inland rather than to the sea.
You'll be drawn inland, too, with a variety of shore excursions.
This is the land of the Maya, after all.
But there's plenty to keep you occupied here in the lowlands.
Tourist brochures tout the Caribbean coast as "The Other Guatemala".
The predominantly indigenous and Spanish cultures of the highlands give way to an Afro-Caribbean tradition that listens more closely to the rhythms of far-off Jamaica rather than taking its cue from Guatemala City.
Think of it as mixing a little reggae with your salsa.
Experience true Caribbean island bliss, during your time on the immaculate paradise of Roatan, which is the largest of the Bay Islands.
This slim island is framed by glorious powdery white beaches, and rich ocean beds carpeted with diverse coral reefs - alive with fish and marine life.
Curious dolphins roll through the waves just offshore, while beach dwellers soak up the sun, and enjoy coconut cocktails, beside leaning palm trees.
The beaches here are nothing short of dreamy - with wooden piers teetering out over the water, and thatched roofs providing welcome shade, as you dangle your legs towards the water.
