Cruise overview

Experience a route that links Costa Rica’s national parks and quiet bays with Panama’s tropical islands. Spot squirrel monkeys in Manuel Antonio, zipline above the canopy in Playas del Coco, and explore coastal villages where local markets and wildlife refuges sit just steps apart. Continue to the San Blas Islands for reef snorkeling and time with the Kuna people before a full Panama Canal transit narrated by a canal expert. Arrive in Cartagena for an overnight that lets you explore its walled district after hours before continuing north to the ABC Islands, where time in Willemstad, Curaçao features pastel Dutch colonial architecture, floating markets, and calm coves ideal for swimming. Your journey continues to St. Barts, known for its bright turquoise bays and relaxed French-Caribbean ambiance, followed by visits to Jost Van Dyke and Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands, where white-sand beaches and iconic granite boulders offer some of the most picturesque settings in the Caribbean.
