Itinerary

Welcome to Miami and the sweep of South Beach - backdrop to every iconic Miami movie, and forefront of Latin American culture. Stroll through pastel-hued geometric buildings in the art deco district, to graffiti mural masterpieces at Wynwood Walls. Watch Latino life unfold in Little Havana - the heartbeat of this great city - where walk-up windows sell café cortadito, sweet sugarcane juice, hatuey beer and guava ice-cream. Watch passionate locals discuss politics, play dominoes and smoke cigars. Shimmy at a salsa class, shop designer boutiques and race marlin and sharks by speedboat. Then slow your pace to uncover rare and endangered species at the Everglades National Park outdoor oasis. You'll find the Miami dream is real – and it's not just Cuban heels that will give you a spring in your step.

With more time to reflect, rejuvenate, and embrace the Ocean State of Mind, days at sea with Explora Journeys invite moments of unhurried exploration. Against a backdrop of endless blue, indulge in a varied programme of wellness, dining and entertainment, enriching the mind and indulging the senses, designed to satisfy even the most curious of minds. These moments at sea offer a rare chance to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. With so many onboard experiences, each day at sea is unique and memorable.

A low-lying cay with a laid-back luxe vibe, pretty Provo is the cosmo-cool jewel of the Turks and Caicos Islands. Encircled by virgin coral and pristine beaches, the cosy cay is crowned with glorious Grace Bay Beach and swoon-worthy Provo Golf Club. Charter a fast boat to a remote island to find the perfect slice of sand then crack open lunch at the infamous Da Conch Shack for its name-sake delicacy. Live on the edge and discover the widest blue hole, the largest dry cave system, or the unforgettable Wall. Best of all is taking it slow, being gloriously cradled in paradise.

An adrenaline rush awaits. Swim with stingrays. Zip-line through lush forests. Walk across a gorge on a scenic suspension bridge. Sip excellent aged rums. Taste the island with a chef. Or stroll St. John's old town to tour cottages laden with cheerful fretwork. Explore British forts atop Shirley Heights and Goat Hill. Then rest and rejuvenate at one of the snow-white beaches.

Pretty Point-à-Pitre flutters between the two wing-like islets of of Guadeloupe's butterfly-shaped island. Meander through the leafy Victory Square to lively markets and chic boutiques or explore the award-winning Memorial ACTe. Cross the bridge to Basse-Terre to explore rain forests, waterfalls, French fort ruins and sleepy La Grande Soufrière volcano. Or venture to the east island, Grand-Terre, to hit the multi-coloured beaches, summit sky-high Castle Point, then seek sanctuary in museums for Nobel-winning poet and diplomat, Alexis Léger for an afternoon of on-point pleasures.

Summon your inner Robinson Crusoe on remote Bequia. Secret lagoons. Castaway picnics. Warm waters in shades of blue that beg to be snorkelled through. Stake your flag in the sweet Bequia breeze just as the Union Jack did for almost 200 years. Usher in deep tranquillity on lovely Princess Margaret Beach. Ascend Mount Peggy with sunny views of St. Vincent. Stoll Belmont Boardwalk to Margret Beach for hand-whittled mahogany boat models then prowl the concrete catwalk that runs along Port Elizabeth for home-churned nutmeg ice cream. Support a sterling turtle sanctuary protecting the rare hawksbill or ferry to nearby Mustique, the favourite holiday romp for Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Gently breeze into the vibrant capital of Barbados. Steeped in fascinating history, with architecture to match, uncover the wonderfully laid-back West Indian ambiance. Embrace the slow Bajan rhythm of this welcoming island; surf, snorkel and try spotting turtles in balmy azure waters. Explore subterranean Harrison's Cave, Jacobean St Nicholas Abbey and zipline high above bountiful tropical flora. Then return to restore on pastel pink sands at palm-studded beaches, where you'll discover cocktail hour is endless, and measures of rum are copious.
