Star Collector: A Lesser Antilles Odyssey
Embrace extraordinary experiences exclusive to small ship cruising during this three-week exploration of the Caribbean's Lesser Antilles island chain. Swim with dolphins during an extended overnight stay in Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands. Savor African, European, and Indian ingredients and influences in popular Caribbean dishes as you sample spicy regional cuisine in the Fairview Great House on St. Kitts. Tour the Montserrat Volcano Observatory and learn how plant and animal life recover after volcanic eruptions, then see firsthand at the Montserrat National Trust Amerindian Gardens near Little Bay. Float above colorful coral reefs in clear-bottom kayaks as you glide through the pristine blue waters of Les Saintes on Guadeloupe. Hang onto halyards and winch handles as you master sailing a 40-foot racing yacht on scenic Rodney's Bay near Pigeon Island on St. Lucia. Wander the 18th century grounds of the childhood home of Empress Josephine, Napoleon's future wife, as you uncover historic French colonial life on Martinique.
