Description

On the edge of the Atlantic and the Caribbean, let the enchanting shores of the Dominican Republic, the Turks and Caicos Islands and the Bahamas cast their spell on you. From white-sand beaches washed by turquoise waters to lush mangroves, freshwater lagoons and fascinating caves, these islands are rich in marine treasures. The Turks and Caicos Islands, nestled within the world’s third-largest coral reef system, reveal abundant life under water, where green turtles, tropical fish and brightly coloured corals flourish. At each stop, you will also discover a rich and contrasting culture shaped by Hispano-Caribbean heritage, tales of piracy and British colonial influences. A rare experience combining unspoilt nature and authentic encounters in the vibrant heart of the northern Caribbean.

Itinerary



Day 1 - Day 1 - Nassau
Lying between the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea, Central America and the United States, Nassau is an important crossroads at the heart of the Bahamas. A favoured haunt of pirates and then smugglers, a colonial land coveted by the British, the Spanish and the Americans, the town, which was created in the second half of the 17th Century, is famous for its tumultuous past. Today transformed into an upscale tourist destination, the capital of the Bahamas has succeeded in maintaining its authentic charm whilst offering a number of attractions thanks to its boutiques, casinos and the spectacular Atlantis complex. Built on Paradise Island, this gigantic construction is home to the largest tropical aquarium in the world.
Day 2 - Day 2 - Barbary Beach, Grand Bahama
Along the unspoilt shores of Grand Bahama, Barbary Beach offers an experience in tune with the elements. Its wild, contrasting scenery unfolds between long stretches of white sand bordered by turquoise waters and lush mangroves. On this pristine island paradise, discover the geological treasures of Lucayan National Park, remarkable biodiversity and endemic vegetation, and visit a coral conservation site. The island’s botanical garden is also home to a wide variety of tropical plants set within a lush environment where numerous bird species thrive.
Day 3 - Day 3 - Staniel Cay, Exuma
A little-known gem of the Exuma Islands, Staniel Cay reveals some of the Caribbean’s most striking landscapes in an atmosphere that remains unspoilt. The water, in an almost unreal shade of turquoise, invites you to swim, while the shallow lagoons are home to remarkable marine biodiversity, and the pristine sandbanks that emerge at low tide are perfect for pausing and taking in the horizon. Nearby, Pig Beach offers a surprising, truly unique and now iconic experience: swimming alongside free-roaming pigs in a picture-postcard setting. 
Day 4 - Day 4 - Gordon's Beach, Long Island
On Long Island, Gordon’s Beach reveals a more intimate, untamed and almost hidden side of the Bahamas. Here, cliffs sculpted by the ocean and long stretches of deserted beach define the landscape. Inland, the roads lead you to welcoming, authentic villages where it is a pleasure to wander. Nearby, fascinating natural sites await travellers in search of adventure: Dean’s Blue Hole, a striking deep blue marine sinkhole, and Hamilton’s Cave, one of the most impressive underground caves in the Bahamas. 
Day 5 - Day 5 - Turks and Caicos Islands
A British Overseas Territory located to the south-east of the Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos Islands stand out for their spectacular beaches and the exceptional clarity of their waters. Unspoilt and little-known, they are home to the world’s third-largest coral reef system, offering underwater landscapes of rare beauty and purity. As you explore this marine sanctuary, you may be lucky enough to witness the fascinating ballet of green turtles, bottlenose dolphins and tropical fish in these extraordinarily clear waters. 
Day 6 - Day 6 - San Fernando de Monte Cristi
a:0:{}
Day 7 - Day 7 - Santa Bárbara de Samaná
Founded in honour of Barbara de Braganza, wife of the Spanish king Ferdinand VI, the town of Santa Barbara de Samaná is located on the south coast of the Samaná Peninsula, in the Dominican Republic. Along the seafront, in a bay renowned for the passage of humpback whales during the first months of the year, charming Creole-style houses display their colourful facades. When your ship calls here, don’t miss the chance to visit Los Haitises National Park. There, you will navigate through a stunning landscape of tropical rainforest and discover caves that were once occupied by the Taino Indians. 
Day 8 - Day 7 - Cayo Levantado
Cayo Levantado, also called Bacardi Island, is one of the most beautiful islands in the Dominican Republic. Resting in the heart of Samaná Bay not far from the must-see Los Haitises National Park, the islet offers visitors magnificent picture-postcard panoramas of white-sand beaches with crystal-clear water, lined with coconut trees. The island’s abundant marine life makes it a favourite destination for scuba divers and snorkellers.
Day 9 - Day 8 - La Romana
The seaside resort of La Romana is ideally located in the south east of the Dominican Republic. In Casa de Campo, luxury villas and golf courses overlook the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. Above the River Chavon, a surprising reconstruction of an Italian mediaeval village and Roman amphitheatre serves as the backdrop for a great variety of cultural events. A museum of pre-Columbian archaeology, an American design school, and many artists and artisans have set up in this flowery village. Just off the coast, the idyllic islands of Catalina and Saona are edged with white sandy beaches and palm trees.
