Jamaica is renowned for its relaxed island atmosphere and lively rhythms. Its main port of Montego Bay is home to lively resorts and soft-sand beaches. The birthplace of reggae, the island still celebrates its most famous native son, Bob Marley. Jamaica's plantation past is on display at the Rose Hall Great House, an elegant, late 18th-century Georgian mansion. The fascinating house chronicles life during a turbulent time in Jamaica's history and tells the story of the "White Witch", whose voodoo practices gave rise to the legend of the White Witch of Rose Hall.

Learn about the delicate ecosystems of the Caribbean Sea that lie beneath the surface of these crystal-clear, warm waters. These remarkable coral reefs are known as the "rainforests of the sea".

Day 6 - Thursday - Feb 22, 2024
Cruising the Panama Canal, Panama
Cruising the Panama Canal, Panama    
Forty-eight miles long, the Panama Canal crosses the narrowest stretch of the Isthmus of Panama. Witnessing this engineering marvel at work is truly memorable. A partial crossing to the Gatun Lake transits through a series of three locks that lift ships 85 feet above sea level. Far from the mechanics of the shipping locks, the canal is embraced by the lush beauty of the surrounding countryside.
Day 7 - Friday - Feb 23, 2024
Colon, Panama
Colon, Panama    
Colon lies near the Panama Canal's Atlantic entrance. During the California gold rush, prospectors from the eastern United States sailed here, trekked across the narrow isthmus of Panama, then sailed up the Pacific coast, believing the journey easier than traversing the entire United States. Indigenous tribes maintain a strong presence in this northern corner of Panama. The Embera people, descended from ancient tribes, live in thatched-roof huts, travel by dugout canoe, and weave traditional baskets.
Day 8 - Saturday - Feb 24, 2024
Puerto Limon, Costa Rica
Puerto Limon, Costa Rica    
San Jose is Costa Rica's cosmopolitan capital, nestled in the country's Central Valley. Celebrated as one of the world's most picturesque countries, Costa Rica is home to an astonishing diversity of landscapes and climate zones. About five percent of the world's species of flora and fauna thrive in this tiny country, and locals vigorously protect them by preserving much of their land against development. Tortuguero, a vast national park, is a maze of rainforest canals and inlets on the Caribbean coast, linking villages and swamps that are dense with wildlife.
Day 9 - Sunday - Feb 25, 2024
Cruising the Caribbean Sea
Cruising the Caribbean Sea    
Fed by the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean covers nearly 1.1 million square miles and boasts a depth of approximately 25,000 feet at its deepest point in the Cayman Trench.

Roatan, Honduras
Roatan, Honduras    
Roatan is part of the Bay Islands and a snorkeler's paradise. The reefs that skirt its archipelago boast the highest diversity of corals in the Caribbean. Its botanical and butterfly gardens host an astonishing array of tropical plants and multihued winged creatures. More than a tropical playground, the Bay Islands have a rich history of Spanish, British, and French presence, together with the indigenous Caribs. Over the decades, settlers from around the world put down roots in this island paradise and established a successful fruit trade industry.
Day 11 - Tuesday - Feb 27, 2024
Belize City, Belize
Belize City, Belize    
Inhabited by the Maya for more than 5,000 years, Belize is home to more than a dozen remarkable ruins. At the ancient site of Altun Ha, one of Central America's most accessible archaeological treasures, several Mesoamerican temple-pyramids stand as testaments to an advanced civilization. Its most famous, the Temple of the Masonry Altars, is 54 feet tall. Offshore, Belize boasts another spectacular wonder: the famous Great Blue Hole. Just off Ambergris Caye, this natural phenomenon is a breathtaking chute in the middle of a shallow lagoon and a paradise for diving enthusiasts.
Day 12 - Wednesday - Feb 28, 2024
Cozumel, Mexico
Cozumel, Mexico    
The island of Cozumel holds the keys to many of the most intriguing secrets of Mexico's ancient civilizations. At San Gervasio, pre-Columbian women made offerings to Ix Chel, goddess of the moon and fertility. More recently, the Spanish left marks of their early presence in the colorful colonial architecture and lively traditions of San Miguel and at the scenic lighthouse at Punta Sur. Today, this island off Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula attracts as many snorkelers as it does history buffs; the Cozumel Reefs National Marine Park is one the world's largest coral reef systems.
