NORTH AMERICA

North America Cruise

New England, Canada and Baja California.

The St Lawrence River lies in the morning mist, and along both banks the forests burn red and gold, as though someone had set the autumn alight. Far to the south, at the very same time, a different scene: in a lagoon of Baja California a grey whale lifts its calf from the water, so close to the boat that you could almost touch it. North America has many faces, and the finest are seen from the water.

This region brings together two very different coasts. In the east, the St Lawrence River and New England: Montreal and French-speaking Quebec high above the river, the autumn forests of Canada in the legendary Indian Summer, and the old harbour towns of the US east coast. In the west, Baja California in Mexico, a slender peninsula between the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez. Jacques Cousteau called it the aquarium of the world: grey whales, dolphins, lonely desert coves.

Small ships are ideal for both coasts: in the east they call at the smaller river harbours, in the west the sheltered bays where the whales give birth to their calves. The season follows nature's own rhythm, New England and Canada in late summer and autumn (August to October), Baja California in late winter (February to March). Voyages usually last around eleven nights.
