Itinerary

Day 1 – Ft. Lauderdale, Florida

Departs 04:00 pm.

According to the popular 1960 beach movie, Fort Lauderdale is “where the boys are.” The city’s reputation as America’s Spring Break capital, however, has been replaced with the more favorable image of a prime family tourist destination, attracting more than 10 million visitors annually. The most popular beach resort in Florida is even more rightly famed as the “Yachting Capital of the World,” with more than 40,000 registered crafts calling its waters home. The city also prides itself on being the “Venice of America” with more than 300 miles of navigable waterways. Fort Lauderdale boasts world-class theaters, museums, sightseeing, and shopping. The city sits 24 miles north of Miami and is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale, who was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. Look hard and you might find remnants of three of them today. More people seem to be interested in taking a water tour aboard the “Carrie B.”

Day 2 – RelaxAway Half Moon Cay, Bahamas

Arrives 09:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

Day 3 – At Sea

Day 4 – Falmouth, Jamaica

Arrives 08:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

Day 5 – At Sea

Day 6 – Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Honduras

Arrives 08:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

Day 7 – Belize City, Belize

Arrives 08:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

Located at the base of the Yucatan Peninsula, Belize offers travelers a wealth of attractions. The country’s dense rain forest is dotted with Mayan ruins. The forest is also home to a wide range of tropical wildlife, ranging from jaguars and ocelots to keel-boated macaws and howler monkeys. Offshore, the world’s second largest barrier reef offers some of the finest diving in the world. And Belize’s easygoing ways, a legacy of its past as a British colony, feels far more akin to a small Caribbean island than a Central American republic. Note: Belize City is an anchorage port, guests transfer to shore via local tender.

Day 8 – Costa Maya, Mexico

Arrives 08:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

Day 9 – Cozumel, Mexico

Arrives 07:00 am, departs 07:00 pm.

Mayan myth claims that Cozumel was home to the gods. Truly Cozumel is a place fit for the gods, with its dazzling white-sand beaches, ruined Mayan temples, exotic jungle wildlife, and crystalline waters teeming with tropical fish. Just offshore lay Palancar Reef, considered one of the most spectacular coral formations in all the Caribbean. Of course, the gods weren’t the only individuals attracted to this terrestrial paradise: during its long and colorful history, Cozumel has been home to pirates, buccaneers, and freebooters, including Sir Henry Morgan and Jean Lafitte. Today’s traveler will discover the same ravishing beauty and relaxation that entertained gods and pirates alike.

Day 10 – At Sea

Day 11 – Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
