7 Night Barbados, Martinique & Antigua

Destination notes

San Juan — Old San Juan is 500 years old and brightly alive: blue cobblestone lanes, pastel balconies and the mighty El Morro fortress watching the Atlantic. It's one of the most atmospheric ports in the Caribbean.

Basseterre — St Kitts mixes colonial charm with volcanic drama — the old Circus square and scenic railway in Basseterre, Brimstone Hill fortress on the hills, and black-sand Atlantic beaches on the wilder side of the island.

Roseau — Dominica is the Caribbean's nature island: rainforest-covered mountains, the boiling lake, Trafalgar Falls and rivers everywhere. It's the port for travellers who'd rather hike and snorkel than shop.

Fort-De-France — Martinique brings a slice of France to the Caribbean — rum distilleries, Creole markets and Fort-de-France's elegant library and cafés. The south coast beaches are among the region's finest.

Bridgetown — Barbados pairs a bright, British-flavoured capital with some of the Caribbean's calmest swimming water. Carlisle Bay's wrecks and turtles sit minutes from Bridgetown's colonial careenage, and the island's east coast offers a wilder, windswept contrast.

St. Johns — Antigua famously claims a beach for every day of the year. Beyond St John's colourful quay lies Nelson's Dockyard, the world's only working Georgian naval dockyard, wrapped in green hills and sailing history.
