Bridgetown is the island's largest city and is a vibrant and historic cultural gem. The city was founded by the British, meaning there is a terrific mix of old and new on the island with historic British colonial buildings alongside modern structures such as shopping centres and financial institutions. Always a lively city, there is a large amount of shopping, dining and cultural experiences to discover. Street vendors provide colour and character to the streets and the local bars and restaurants are the perfect way to immerse yourself in the Caribbean culture.

The island of Bequia, which lies in the Caribbean Sea, is part of the State of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. About 5,000 people live on the island and the official language is English. The name of the island, which translates as 'Island of Clouds', comes from the language of the Arawak, the indigenous people of Bequia. Port Elizabeth is the capital of the island and, with its large marina, is a popular destination for tourists from all over the world. Many cruises start around the Grenadines. For those looking for more idyllic and calm beaches, take a trip to Friendship Bay on the opposite side of the island.

Port of Spain is the capital of Trinidad and Tobago and the most important port in the country. The city has plenty of attractions from the past centuries.

In the Botanical Garden of the city and the zoo, you get insight into the flora and fauna of Trinidad and Tobago.

Fort de France is the capital of Martinique and one of the largest cities of the island. Fort de France offers many attractions, the famous Museum of banana plantations and the Habitation Limbé tell a lot about the history of the city and the island. Even the statue of the empress Joséfine, wife of Napoleon is impressive. Martinique is typical of the market on which especially spices and fruits are traded.

The small capital of the British Virgin Islands is located on the main island of Tortola and has about 9000 inhabitants. The city was founded in 1648 by Dutch settlers. The town has been destroyed on many occasions due to coming under siege. The oldest buildings that remain now date back to 1840. If you're looking to explore the city, the Botanical Garden is a good place to start. Then, you can make your way to the ferry terminal of the city where many beautiful yachts drop anchor.

Miami, situated on the Atlantic coast in Southeast Florida, is the world's busiest cruise port. An array of world-famous beaches such as South Beach, which is known for its vibrant nightlife scene, continue to put the city on the map for cruise vacationers.
