Small yet perfectly formed islands are our destinations on this hop around the Caribbean. Departing San Juan, the lively capital of Puerto Rico, we sail to Basseterre in St. Kitts, gateway to Brimstone Fort National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Fort-de-France in Martinique comes next, where sights include a statue of Napoleon’s Josephine. Another hop brings us to Roseau, the capital of Dominica, with its bustling markets and easy access to beautiful national parks. St. John’s, Antigua, reveals the beautifully preserved Georgian-era dockyard used by Admiral Nelson’s ships. A spell in St. Barts allows us to see and be seen in the glamorous boutiques of Gustavia. After that, Tortola in the British Virgin Islands appears on the horizon, a place beloved by snorkelers and divers for its dazzling reef life. Two laidback days at sea smooth the way for our arrival into buzzy Fort Lauderdale, our journey’s end.
