GET SET FOR A TASTE OF PARADISE.
Azure skies, crystal-clear water, sun-kissed beaches: it’s a simple recipe for happiness – and one that is perfected on the South American coastline and the palm-fringed isles of the Caribbean.
Each island possesses a character of its own, and while many people deliberate over which to visit, a cruise enables you to hop between several to discover your favorite. Glamorous Barbados has restaurants and botanical gardens; tiny Bequia, ridged by green hills, is the most laid-back; St. Lucia has natural wonders, with its cocoa forests and rainforest trails. On the South American mainland, meanwhile, Cartagena offers historic neighborhoods, bougainvillea-covered architecture, and artisanal shops; Lima is a bucket-list destination for foodies; and Rio de Janeiro is the spiritual home of beach style and bossa nova. Next stop, paradise.
