5 7-DAY CRUISE ITINERARY KEY WEST FORT LAUDERDALE HALF MOON CAY AMBER COVE GRAND TURK Few destinations boast as much tropical beauty or cultural diversity as the islands of the Caribbean. The colorful quilt-work of cities and ancient ruins fill a breathtaking backdrop of lush jungles, freshwater caves, coral reefs, blue lagoons and white-sand beaches perfectly suited to relaxing and getting away. DEPARTING: FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 2018 EMBARKATION: 11:30 A.M. 2:30 P.M. DEPART: 4:00 P.M. KEY WEST, FLORIDA SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 8:00 A.M. 4:00 P.M. For centuries, vacationers have been drawn to the warm temperatures, quiet waters, and white sands of Key West, home to some of the most spectacular sunsets. No wonder writers like Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams found refuge amid its laid-back ocean breezes. Just a few hours surrounded by the colorful characters and quaint, palmlined streets of Key West, and you ll find yourself enjoying a fresh new perspective. DAY AT SEA MONDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2018 GRAND TURK, TURKS AND CAICOS TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 8:00 A.M. 5:00 P.M. Rumored to be the island in the New World where Christopher Columbus first made landfall in 1492, Grand Turk is a quintessential Caribbean paradise. A quarter-mile from shore, the ocean floor drops 7,000 feet along a protected reef, meaning these waters attract as many humpback whales, manta rays, and blue marlin as they do divers. It also offers plenty of charm in the historic buildings of Cockburn Town. AMBER COVE, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 8:00 A.M. 5:00 P.M. Named for the prehistoric gemstones lining its shores, the northern Amber Coast of the Dominican Republic is one of the newest Caribbean cruise destinations thanks to the brand-new Amber Cove port in the Bay of Maimon. Complete with a free, four-acre pool area, Amber Cove also serves as a gateway to some of the island nation s most spectacular beaches, adventure excursions, and historical sites. DAY AT SEA THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15 HALF MOON CAY, BAHAMAS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 8:00 A.M. 3:00 P.M. Featuring two miles of white sand and breathtaking coral reefs, this 2,400-acre island is nestled amid the pristine beaches and blue waters of the Bahamas. Bypass the beach and explore the island interior 98 percent of which remains undeveloped and wild to find nature trails, bird-watching hideaways, and a restful wild bird sanctuary.
