Star Collector: Windward Islands, ABC Islands & the Virgin Islands


Cruise overview
This extended Caribbean route follows a steady arc from the Windward Islands into the ABC Islands and onward to the British Virgin Islands. Days unfold in Grenada, Bequia, and St. Lucia, where volcanic peaks, protected bays, and easy access to snorkeling and diving shape the rhythm of the voyage. Les Saintes adds remarkable underwater visibility before the itinerary shifts south toward Aruba, Curaçao, and Bonaire for reef exploration and backcountry adventures. Northbound, time in Gustavia, Jost Van Dyke, and Virgin Gorda highlights classic small-ship anchorages and shoreline trails, including the granite formations of the Baths. The journey concludes in San Juan after visiting some of the Caribbean’s most distinctive coastlines and island cultures.
Itinerary
Oranjestad
Aruba’s capital is easily explored on foot. Its palm-lined central thoroughfare runs between old and new pastel-painted buildings of typical Dutch design (Spanish influence is also evident in some of the architecture). There are a lot of malls with boutiques and shops—the Renaissance mall carries high-end luxury items and designer fashions. A massive renovation in downtown has given Main Street (a.k.a. Caya G. F. Betico Croes) behind the Renaissance Resort a whole new lease on life: boutique malls, shops, and restaurants have opened next to well-loved family-run businesses. The pedestrian-only walkway and resting areas have unclogged the street, and the new eco-trolley is free and a great way to get around. At this writing, Linear Park was well and will showcase local merchants and artists. There will be activities along a boardwalk that will eventually run all the way to the end of Palm Beach, making it the longest of its kind in the Caribbean.
