PORTS OF CALL
San Juan, Puerto Rico
Historic San Juan, once nothing more than cobblestone streets and the distinctive architecture of the Spanish who founded it, is now a modern world capital. Among the peaceful shaded courtyards and commanding colonial fortresses of El Morro and San Cristobal, you'll find a cosmopolitan city of wide boulevards, lively cafes, highly regarded galleries and designer boutiques. This is where the old world meets the new - and you can enjoy them both.
Tortola, BVI
Sail across the channel on yachts destined for Norman, Cooper, Salt or Pepper Islands. Here you can swim and snorkel into underwater caves and among colorful coral reefs. A scenic island tour takes you up Fort Hill to Cane Garden Bay where you can relax on spectacular white-sand beaches. Enjoy the tales of this historic waterway as you retrace the paths of Christopher Columbus and Sir Frances Drake.
St. Maarten (Philipsburg), Netherland Antillies
Where else can you experience the food, style and hospitality of two separate countries in an exotic West Indian setting? St. Maarten is divided between French St. Martin in the north and Dutch St. Maarten in the south. Both sides of this 37-square-mile island offer beautiful ocean vistas, gourmet cuisines, first-rate water sports and beaches, and some of the best duty-free shopping in the world.
Castries, St. Lucia
Queen Elizabeth once visited Castries, and the St Lucians have never forgotten it. It was for her that they named Queen's Drive - the road around this island that boasts a volcano, riotous botanical gardens and excellent whale-watching opportunities. In town, watch as natives fashion boats from gum trees, write your postcards in a Creole cafe or keep an eye out for exquisite silk-screened fabrics.
Bridgetown, Barbados
In British Barbados, cricket is the national sport and afternoon tea goes without saying, but it's true blue Caribbean as well, with classic sand beaches, hills carpeted in sugar cane and wild vervet monkeys in the jungle.
St. Georges, Grenada
On St. George's, the Isle of Spice, the heady fragrance of nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and cocoa turn the simple act of breathing into an exotic experience. Other sensual experiences: the Botanical Gardens, a wonderful West Indian open-air market, the Royal Drive through lush green hills to spice country.
Willemstad, Curacao
No one can blame early European settlers for building so many forts on Willemstad, Curacao. One look at this former Dutch colony and you will want to claim it all for yourself. Fortunately, the island of Curacao and its capital city now belong to all of its inhabitants. Drive on the fabled Queen Juliana Bridge, which soars 185 feet above the tepid waters between Punda, Otrobanda and Schottegat. Or stop at the Old Market - Marche. It's casual, and you can enjoy just-caught fish and local delicacies all grilled fresh right before your eyes.
Oranjestad, Aruba
A Dutch jewel with a tropical touch. In Oranjestad, Aruba's capital, explore the colorful floating market and Nassaustraat, brimming with quaint shops. Head for the beach where water sports abound: snorkeling, rides on glass bottom boats and submarines. Or venture into the countryside to see the haunts of the huge green parakeet, the unique rock gardens of Casi Bari, the curious divi divi tree, forever bending in the tradewind breezes.
