The Route
Philipsburg
10 nights
Philipsburg
How the route could go:
-
FRI · 17 Mar 2028Philipsburg (Sint Maarten) · Embarkation
Philipsburg is the capital of Dutch Sint Maarten - the smallest land mass shared by two nations. Front Street with its duty-free shops and the aeroplane beach bar near Princess Juliana Airport are Caribbean attractions of a very special kind. On the French side of the island, Saint-Martin, life is celebrated with French savoir-vivre: excellent French cuisine meets Caribbean joie de vivre.
-
SAT · 18 Mar 2028Gustavia (St. Barth)
Gustavia is the capital of Saint-Barthélemy and is regarded as the "Côte d'Azur of the Caribbean". The small natural harbour, surrounded by international boutiques, gourmet restaurants and elegant yachts, blends relaxed island feel with European refinement.

SUN · 19 Mar 2028At sea
-
MON · 20 Mar 2028Cabrits (Dominica)
Cabrits is a twin-peaked volcanic peninsula on the north-western coast of Dominica and the heart of Cabrits National Park. On the higher hill stands Fort Shirley, a restored 18th-century British garrison overlooking Prince Rupert Bay. Dominica is the only Caribbean island where the indigenous people survived: the Kalinago still live in the Kalinago Territory on the east coast. The national bird, the Sisserou parrot (Imperial Amazon), is found nowhere else on earth and features on the national flag. On this green island people keep a particularly deep connection with nature.
-
TUE · 21 Mar 2028Terre-de-Haut (Îles des Saintes)
Terre-de-Haut is the main island of the Îles des Saintes - a Provençal fishing village transposed to the Caribbean, with boulangeries, small harbours and Fort Napoléon high above the sea.
-
WED · 22 Mar 2028St. John’s
St. John's is the capital of Antigua and Barbuda and a lively port set on a sheltered bay. Colourful Georgian timber houses, St. John's Cathedral and the public market define this Caribbean town.

FRI · 24 Mar 2028North Sound

SAT · 25 Mar 2028North Sound

SAT · 25 Mar 2028White Bay (Jost van Dyke)
On the south coast of the tiny BVI island of Jost van Dyke, White Bay glows: a curving bay of powder-white sand and turquoise water, reached only from the sea. It is famous for its barefoot beach bars set right in the surf - above all the Soggy Dollar Bar, birthplace of the rum cocktail known as the "Painkiller". A Caribbean picture-postcard made for anchoring and wading ashore.
-
SAT · 25 Mar 2028Great Harbour (Jost van Dyke)
Great Harbour is the main settlement and principal anchorage of Jost van Dyke. Simple beach bars line the sheltered bay; the legendary Foxy's Tamarind Bar has been a meeting point for the Caribbean sailing community for decades. Despite its famous New Year's Eve revelry, the place keeps its easy-going, unhurried island character.
-
SUN · 26 Mar 2028Norman Island (BVI)
Norman Island in the British Virgin Islands is said to have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island". The uninhabited island offers cave diving in the sea caves and one of the Caribbean's most popular floating bars.

MON · 27 Mar 2028Philipsburg (Sint Maarten) · Disembarkation
The route of a sailing voyage may change without giving rise to mutual claims.
Sea Cloud II
Sea Cloud II is a three-masted barque of 117 metres with 23 sails - compact enough for intimate harbours, large enough for the open sea. 94 guests and around 65 crew: a guest ratio unmatched in the cruise market.
In the Caribbean, Sea Cloud II sails through waters that recall the great age of the windjammers - between islands where time seems to stand still.
