Cruise Overview

Located beside the island’s only natural harbour, the capital of Barbados combines modern and colonial architecture with glorious palm tree-lined beaches and a number of historical attractions.

Experience the relaxed culture of the city renowned for its British-style parliament buildings and vibrant beach life, and seek out the Anglican church and the 19th-century Barbados Garrison.

The distance between the ship and your tour vehicle may vary.

This distance is not included in the excursion grades.
The oldest town in St.

Lucia and the island’s former French colonial capital, Soufrière was founded by the French in 1746 and named for its proximity to the volcano of the same name.

The wharf is the center of activity in this sleepy town (population, 9,000), particularly when a cruise ship anchors in pretty Soufrière Bay.

French colonial influences are evident in the second-story verandahs, gingerbread trim, and other appointments of the wooden buildings that surround the market square.

The market building itself is decorated with colorful murals.

Soufrière, the site of much of St.

Lucia’s renowned natural beauty, is the destination of most sightseeing trips.

This is where you can get up close to the iconic Pitons and visit colonial capital of St.

Lucia, with its "drive-in" volcano, botanical gardens, working plantations, waterfalls, and countless other examples of the natural beauty for which St.

Lucia is deservedly famous.
Bequia is a Carib word meaning "island of the cloud." Hilly and green with several golden-sand beaches, Bequia is 9 miles (14½ km) south of St.

Vincent's southwestern shore; with a population of 5,000, it's the largest of the Grenadines.

Although boatbuilding, whaling, and fishing have been the predominant industries here for generations, sailing has now become almost synonymous with Bequia.

Admiralty Bay is a favored anchorage for both privately owned and chartered yachts.

Lodgings range from comfortable resorts and villas to cozy West Indian—style inns.

Bequia's airport and the frequent ferry service from St.

Vincent make this a favorite destination for day-trippers, as well.

The ferry docks in Port Elizabeth, a tiny town with waterfront bars, restaurants, and shops where you can buy handmade souvenirs—including the exquisitely detailed model sailboats that are a famous Bequia export.

The Easter Regatta is held during the four-day Easter weekend, when revelers gather to watch boat races and celebrate the island's seafaring traditions with food, music, dancing, and competitive games.To see the views, villages, beaches, and boatbuilding sites around Bequia, hire a taxi at the jetty in Port Elizabeth.

Several usually line up under the almond trees to meet each ferry from St.

Vincent.
