Sail to St. John’s, where the white towers of its historical cathedral still dominate the skyline. Take in the white Baroque structure before continuing to the village of Pointe-à-Pitre, on the butterfly-shaped island of Guadeloupe. Search for exotic French fares before sailing to lush Saint Lucia and its capital, Castries. Explore a lively market or consider an excursion to take in surrounding natural wonders before continuing to Bridgetown, offering exceptional examples of British Colonial architecture and an impressively preserved old town. Scarborough, the next stop, is home to Fort King George, a protected Colonial fort. Sitting atop a hill, this is a great vantage point to take in magnificent city and ocean views. Visit St. George’s to inhale the ever-present aromas of sweet and comforting spices; Roseau to enjoy the mix of reggae music, zipping scooters, and the cacophony of a vibrant city; and Philipsburg to peruse the bustling shopping district. Finally, before returning to Miami, spend a day enjoying the pleasant tropical breeze in Gustavia, the capital of glamorous and adored St. Barts. This volcanic island surrounded by gorgeous shallow reefs is a paradise of pristine white-sand beaches and crystalline waters with an upscale atmosphere. Travel to these wonderful ports with Go Next, the alumni cruise leader, and its preferred cruise partner, Oceania Cruises, offering the best value in upscale cruising.
