Explora Journeys Cruises — Caribbean Cruise ©Explora Journeys

Set sail on a quest for blue-water bliss where nature demands our full attention. Birds in a bevy of songs and colors. Trees laden with mangos and guava. Islands with gin-clear lagoons, white sand beaches, and towering mystic mountains.

Miami sets our expectations of enchantment with some of its most cherished treasures including the magnificent Vizcaya Villa, the Mediterranean-inspired Venetian Pool, and Key Biscayne’s long secluded beaches.

Our playground of discovery continues in Grand Turk where the world’s third longest barrier reef and sheer coral walls teem with fish named for parrots, angels, and damsels as well as the “splash down” site when the Friendship 7 NASA capsule hit these waters with Astronaut John Glenn in 1962.

From stellar grace to heavenly lairs, we call on the Eden of Samana; a stage for stories to tell about secluded Playa Rincon beach, considered by many to be the most beautiful, and the virgin forest of El Valle with its many gossamer waterfalls. Quiet coves and untamed wilderness await in Virgin Gorda which is as pristine and plump with surprises as her name suggests. Explore The Baths, hike Devi’s Bay National Park or head out to uninhabited Prickly Pear Island.

Regal and under-the-radar, Deshaies distinguishes itself with its famed golden beach of Grande Anse and its privy location to the world-renowned Jacques Cousteau dive site at nearby Pigeon Island.

Without disturbing the balance of sea and life, we call upon Ocean Cay Marine Reserve; Explora’s private island outpost designed to provide enriching experiences in an environmentally and sustainable manner.

Highlights of the Holidays Cruise

Elaborate festivities and champagne toasts herald the celebration of this Christmas Journey. More than sailing, this is a voyage of the senses when every detail is considered to take your holiday memories to the next level.

We sail from Miami to the southernmost point of the contiguous United States to Key West. A small island packaged with substantial gifts: swim with dolphins, snorkel coral reefs, or kayak through a maze of eco-sustaining mangroves. With unequivocal delight, we settle into the rhythm of the sea and sail under a blanket of starry nights. A chorus of tropical yuletide songs sets the backdrop for colorful parties and sumptuous feasts.

Peace and joy continue as soft breezes lead us to the British Virgin Gorda. Explore The Baths and step into the Cathedral — two enormous adjoining rocks where a heavenly sliver of sunlight beams onto a luminous blue grotto pool.

Next, we trade sugar plums for candied coconut snacks at two of the Caribbean’s most dashing destinations, Deshaies and St. John’s, both exquisitely blessed with European influences, ancient fortresses, towering mountains, and some of the Caribbean’s best snorkeling.

Our final call, San Juan, bursts with historic UNESCO gifts of the buttressed forts of La Fortaleza and El Morro that have survived more than 500 years of swashbuckling history. Visit the artsy neighborhood of Santurce where free-spirited and splashy creativity may set you in the mood to see life from a new perspective. Or leave the city behind and venture into the El Yunque Rain Forest, a beloved gem of the jade-green jungle- and cloud-shrouded mountains crisscrossed by cascading rivers that plummet into dramatic waterfalls.

Linger longer after your journey and continue to unwrap a multitude of memories.
