Destination Guide
Suggested Shore Excursions

Destination	Arrival	Departure
Ft. Lauderdale Ft. Lauderdale 12/27/2024 Embark your ship and settle into your stateroom. A beloved leisure destination for Floridians and visitors alike, the Ft. Lauderdale area exudes the carefree attitude of South Florida's coast. In Miami, a thriving Cuban culture infuses Old Havana and gleaming high-rises overlook Biscayne Bay. On the outlying barrier islands, South Beach is an intoxicating blend of seaside glamour and art deco pastel brilliance. Farther north, the seven-mile-long Ft. Lauderdale Beach provides a more leisurely ambience. Along Las Olas Boulevard, cafés and boutiques invite lingering and endless browsing.,	12/27/2024	12/27/2024
At Sea	12/28/2024	12/28/2024
At Sea At Sea 12/29/2024 Sail through turquoise waters where legends of marauding pirates, swashbucklers, and tales of hidden treasures were born. As you sail, take advantage of the array of delicious cuisine offered on board. You may visit Mamsen's, our casual gourmet deli, any time from early morning to late at night for a taste of traditional Norwegian fare. Or, dine at Manfredi's Italian Restaurant for authentic fare, with options ranging from Milanese risotto to Tuscan-inspired classics.,	12/29/2024	12/29/2024
Cozumel Cozumel 12/30/2024 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 Yucatán 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.,	12/30/2024	12/30/2024
Belize City Belize City 12/31/2024 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.,	12/31/2024	12/31/2024
Coxen Hole (Roatan) Coxen Hole (Roatan) 01/01/2025 Roatán 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.,	01/01/2025	01/01/2025
At Sea At Sea 01/02/2025 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". As you sail, explore the well-curated library, tucked in a private alcove of The Living Room, and select from a broad range of titles. Read a book by the Main Pool, a calming oasis in any weather with its retractable roof, allowing for year-round swimming.,	01/02/2025	01/02/2025
Puerto Limon Puerto Limon 01/03/2025 San José 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.,	01/03/2025	01/03/2025
Colon (Panama) Colon (Panama) 01/04/2025 Colón 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 Emberá people, descended from ancient tribes, live in thatched-roof huts, travel by dugout canoe, and weave traditional baskets.,	01/04/2025	01/04/2025
Panama Canal Panama Canal 01/05/2025 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.,	01/05/2025	01/05/2025
At Sea At Sea 01/06/2025 Fed by the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean covers nearly 1.1 million square miles and boasts a depth of approximately 25,000 feet below sea level at its deepest point in the Cayman Trench. Renew your body, mind, and spirit in our Scandinavian-inspired spa, a Nordic sanctuary of holistic wellness, today while at sea. Whether you unwind in the Sauna, refresh in the Snow Grotto, or take a dip in the Thermal Pool, you will feel recharged and revitalized.,	01/06/2025	01/06/2025
Montego Bay Montego Bay 01/07/2025 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.,	01/07/2025	01/07/2025
At Sea	01/08/2025	01/08/2025
At Sea At Sea 01/09/2025 The Caribbean Sea has been recognized the world over for its rich biodiversity.

The Aquavit Terrace serves a range of International fare and casual dining favorites, as well as a range of superb cocktails inspired by our destinations.,	01/09/2025	01/09/2025
Ft. Lauderdale Ft. Lauderdale 01/10/2025 Ft. Lauderdale is famed for its miles of white-sand beaches fringed with swaying palms. Known as the "Venice of America", the city is renowned for its arts, culture, and network of Venetian-style waterways. The Everglades span more than 1.5 million acres across the Sunshine State and can be explored from here, offering a glimpse into one of the world's most fascinating ecosystems. The city boasts a diverse food scene—offering casual local favorites as well as fine dining options—and a wealth of breweries offer a selection of craft beers, from classic lagers to bold IPAs.
