Star Collector: Caribbean Charms to Iberian Shores
£3,527pp
Itinerary
This voyage moves between distinctive Caribbean favorites—San Juan, St. George’s, Bequia, Mayreau, Les Saintes, and Marigot—and the expansive quiet of an ocean crossing to Lisbon, Portugal. Stops in Agadir and Casablanca add a North African layer to the journey, with Casablanca offering access to Marrakesh’s souks, gardens, and Moorish architecture. While port days deliver classic West Indies appeal, time at sea becomes an opportunity: pick up a shelved creative project, relax in the spa, or join officers on the open bridge to learn how they chart the course. A journey designed for travelers who appreciate both exploration and space to recharge.
Day to Day Itinerary
| Date | Country | Port | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Puerto Rico | San Juan (Puerto Rico) | |
|
The imposing façade of El Morro fortress is just one of the many UNESCO World Heritage Sites in San Juan. Admire the colorful colonial buildings from your casually elegant ship, docked right in the heart of Old San Juan. |
|||
| Day 3 | Grenada | Saint George's | |
|
Inhale the intoxicating aroma of the "Isle of Spice" as your eyes feast on what is widely claimed to be the most beautiful city in the Caribbean. Spend the day on 2-mile-long Grand Anse beach, and before you go, a taste of nutmeg ice cream is a must. |
|||
| Day 4 | Saint Vincent and the Grenadines | Port Elizabeth, Bequia | |
|
The only ships in port are those small enough to anchor alongside the yachts and fishing boats in Admiralty Bay. Bequia's whaling heritage is on display in the museum in pretty Port Elizabeth, or watch the island's famed model boat builders at work on their miniature masterpieces. |
|||
| Day 5 | Saint Vincent and the Grenadines | Mayreau Island | |
|
With fewer than 300 inhabitants and miles of secluded beaches, it's easy to feel as if you're on your own private island. Saline Bay is a delightful anchorage that separates the Caribbean from the Atlantic - and a perfect place to play with some of the toys from the Watersports Platform. |
|||
| Day 6 | Guadeloupe | Terre-de-Haut | |
|
This is the Caribbean as you've always imagined it, with yacht-filled harbors set against volcanic mountains and endless stretches of palm-fringed beach. The underwater world here attracted the likes of Jacques Cousteau, but even novice snorkelers will enjoy exploring these impossibly blue waters. |
|||
| Day 7 | Saint Martin (French part) | Marigot | |
|
Established around 1689, Marigot is the attractive capital of French St. Martin, with its brightly colored houses, a lively open-air market, secluded beaches, and pretty waterfront promenade. Because of its tax-free status, Marigot is a popular center for duty-free shopping, where all of the world's most prestigious brands can be found. Originally the area was marshy, and surrounded by mangroves. In the 1970s part of the bay was filled in to extend Marigot into a larger city with a marina. Overlooking Marigot is Fort St. Louis, the largest historical monument in St. Martin with an impressive panoramic view of the bay. |
|||
| Day 8 | Puerto Rico | San Juan (Puerto Rico) | |
|
The imposing façade of El Morro fortress is just one of the many UNESCO World Heritage Sites in San Juan. Admire the colorful colonial buildings from your casually elegant ship, docked right in the heart of Old San Juan. |
|||
| Day 19 | Morocco | Agadir | |
|
Edged by the mighty Sahara, lush parks, and beautiful, sandy beaches, Agadir brings you the best of all worlds. Shop for exotic jewelry and rugs in Souk Elhad and test your haggling talents. Or try your luck on a surfboard. Slow down and enjoy the view from the site of the old Kasbah, where a panorama of bay, port, and town stretch before you. |
|||
| Day 21 | Morocco | Casablanca | |
|
The siren call of Morocco is irresistible. Amid the whitewashed alleyways and stunning ocean views, make time for an optional excursion to the medina of Marrakech, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore the souks and medinas in the footsteps of Sir Winston Churchill and Yves St. Laurent, who both called this extraordinary blend of east and west their home. |
|||
| Day 23 | Portugal | Lisbon | |
|
The rhythm of Lisbon invites you to join its captivating dance. This splendid capital city on the banks of the Rio Teja offers a warm welcome and an unparalleled blend of architectural styles. Elegant outdoor cafés line the cobbled sidewalks. Turn-of-the-century funiculars climb the scenic hills. Find the UNESCO sites of the Tower of Belem and the Monastery of the Hieronymites. And, everywhere, the city engages you with its easy style and remarkable charm. |
