Southern Caribbean Escape with Miami Beach and Cartagena Stays, 21 November 2026
Miami and Cartagena bookend the voyage
Two nights in Miami open the trip before Crystal Serenity sails a southern Caribbean arc, with two further nights in Cartagena's UNESCO-listed Old Town waiting at the other end.
14 nights
Crystal Serenity
21 Nov '26Cruise overview
Fourteen nights that begin on Miami’s sun-bleached waterfront and end inside the walled streets of Cartagena, with a great deal of the Caribbean in between. Crystal Serenity traces a southern arc through waters that shift from the pale turquoise of the Bahamas to the deeper blues of the British Virgin Islands, pausing long enough in each port to let a place reveal itself properly. Stand at the battlements of El Morro as San Juan stirs below, lose an afternoon on the quiet crescent beach at Jost Van Dyke, and watch Cartagena’s colonial facades glow amber in the late afternoon light. Two nights in Miami at the start and two more in Cartagena at the close give the journey a generous, unhurried shape, more like a chapter than a cruise itinerary.
Itinerary
Miami, USA
Your journey begins as you land in Miami and clear arrivals. A private transfer takes you directly to your hotel, where you can settle in, freshen up, and shake off any jet lag. With the rest of the afternoon free, take a gentle stroll or simply rest ahead of two full days in this vibrant Florida city. Stay overnight at Nobu Hotel Miami Beach (or similar).
