Swim with the majestic stingrays in Grand Cayman

Take a relaxing boat ride out to the barrier reef from George Town in Grand Cayman, where you’ll don your snorkeling equipment above the tropical waters. Then, dive down into the warm waters below where a colorful array of coral and marine life awaits in these crystal-clear waters. 

Later, you’ll make friends with the majestic stingray after another short boat ride to the Stingray Sandbar. These waist-high waters are full of stingrays that can be held, or you can simply let their broad, glistening fins coast along your fingertips just beneath the surface.

Blend and savor your own chocolate in St Lucia

Travel to the Howelton Estate, located in the hills above Castries, where cocoa is the sought-after treat of choice. Discover the origins of chocolate and the vital trinitario cocoa beans before getting first-hand experience of crafting your own delicious chocolate on this expedition that really is a feast for the senses. 

Grind your own cocoa nibs, liquify the mixture, and customize the bar to your taste before pouring and leaving it to set. Enjoy a refreshment in the Cellar bar as you wait for your personalized chocolate to cool, then wrap it and take it with you as you bask in the dramatic landscape of St Lucia and its twin volcanic mountains to the south.

Navigate sunken ships via submarine in Barbados

Reveal the mysteries of the beautiful coral reef at night as you descend aboard a state-of-the-art, air-conditioned submarine in Bridgetown, Barbados. Your pilot will guide the craft through the coastal waters and around a sunken ship as you discover more about the wonderful marine life and the evening activity you won’t see during the daylight hours. From the kaleidoscope of color in the exotic fish that dart between the coral to the fascinating narration and insight of your pilot, this is an incredible and illuminating journey under the ocean.

Watch the setting sun from a catamaran in Curaçao

After a day of exploring the local culture and art in Willemstad, take a catamaran ride out along the Curaçao coastline. Relax onboard as the evening sun begins to set, creating a spectacular shimmering effect on the water and the sandy beaches that surround you. Feel the gentle breeze and the warmth of the waning sunlight, ushering in the night as you indulge in a variety of snacks and beverages served by the crew. There is nothing quite like the palette of black, gold, and navy blue created by a sunset at sea to charm you as you unwind at the end of the day.

Journey through ancient Mayan ruins in Belize

Travel back over 1,000 years as you walk around the amazing Mayan ruins on an excursion from Belize City in Belize. Beginning with a scenic drive through the countryside, you’ll arrive at the Altun Ha ruins, a complex of temples, pyramids, and tombs. Learn more about the Mayans and their ancient culture – including their agricultural practices and their rituals – as you gaze in wonder at the impressive stone structures made before the mysterious collapse of the Mayan civilization.
