Sailing the Caribbean Aboard Sea Cloud II

Itinerary

Day 1: U.S./Barbados/Embark

Embark your ship the Sea Cloud II in Barbados and set sail on your exploration of the wonders of the Caribbean.

Day 2: Under Sail

You have the day to enjoy one of the great pleasures of travel: sailing aboard your barque, seeing the crew go aloft unfurling the sails the traditional way — by hand — as you sail the trade winds. This is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the many amenities of your unique sailing vessel.

Day 3: Dominica/ Isles des Saintes

Dominica is called the “Nature Island” because of its beauty and many reserves. Hike through enchanting rain forest, walk up to the ruins of 18th-century Fort Shirley with our Historian, or go for a swim and snorkel. In the evening anchor at beautiful Isles des Saintes. Enjoy the anchorage, or discover the nightlife ashore on your own.

Day 6: Under Sail/Bequia, the Grenadines

After a morning’s sailing, arrive at tiny Bequia. Stroll the quaint waterfront, swim and snorkel, or visit the sea turtle sanctuary. Enjoy dinner aboard, or if you wish, take in the laid-back evening scene ashore.
