Caribbean, Amazon & Central America
Take advantage of the last chance to get to the Caribbean in the 2018-19 season by flying out to join this voyage in paradise. Exploring the islands can be as exhilarating or relaxing as you wish: go in search of sea turtles; uncover sugar cane history aboard the St Kitts Scenic Railway; join a boat cruise around Tortola; and unwind on the beaches of Antigua. Then enjoy the comfort and space of Braemar as you head home via the Azores and Spain.
Barbados Antigua
Tortola
After arriving in Bridgetown, Barbados, there’ll be time to discover this very British Caribbean island before moving on to your next destination. You may opt to explore the streets on foot, observing typically laid-back Barbadian life first-hand, or pick from a raft of awe-inspiring experiences. Admire impressive stalactites and stalagmites in Harrison’s Cave; venture out on to the shimmering waters in a catamaran in search of sea turtles; or savour the collection of rare and exotic plants at Hunte’s Gardens.
Antigua is next, where there are no less than 365 beaches to choose from – one for each day of the year, if you ask the locals. Elsewhere, the Public Market in St John’s is ideal for a spot of people- watching and a slice of authentic Caribbean culture. Or if you’d prefer to take in all the highlights in one fell swoop, the 490ft-high lookout at Shirley Heights affords sensational views of English Harbour, Nelson’s Dockyard and much more.
The island-hopping continues as you reach Tortola, where in Road Town you can learn about the island’s fascinating pirate history on a scenic boat cruise with
an open-sided safari bus tour. What’s more, at Pusser’s Bar you’ll have the perfect opportunity to try some authentic Caribbean rum.
Then, Braemar glides in a south-easterly direction towards St Kitts, presenting you with the chance to explore Basseterre, the easy-going capital. Bask in the balmy climate as you wander round the botanical gardens, observe the local way of life at Independence Square, or truly unwind to the full – and be sure not to miss the chance to take a ride on the incredible St Kitts Scenic Railway during your time in port.
Though St Kitts is the conclusion to your Caribbean adventure, Braemar still has two enticing destinations up her sleeve before heading back to Southampton. A call into Ponta Delgada of the emerald-green Azores archipelago presents captivating natural wonders – including crater lakes and hot springs – that are sure to take your breath away. Uncovering La Coruña’s galleries, impressive seafront promenade and compact Old Quarter is a great way to cap off this holiday of a lifetime.
