Day 1: Philipsburg, St Maarten | Embark

Your cruise begins in Philipsburg on St. Maarten, the world’s smallest island to be divided between two nations. Known for its excellent shopping, the island offers a choice between the Dutch side, home to Philipsburg, and the French side, centered on Marigot. Either way, you are sure to feel welcome.

Day 2: Road Bay, Anguilla

Arrive at Road Bay on Anguilla, a long, low island with countless white sand coves. Columbus thought its shape resembled a winding eel and named it accordingly. Settled in 1650, Anguilla has remained under British rule ever since, and in recent years, discerning travelers have discovered its small, upscale resorts as the perfect escape from everyday life.

Day 3: White Bay, Jost Van Dyke | Soper's Hole, Tortola

Once the hideaway for a Dutch pirate of the same name, Jost van Dyke welcomes visitors with first-rate hiking trails and the best beaches in the British Virgin Islands. Be sure to have a drink at the famous Foxy's Tamarind Bar in Great harbor.

Soper's Hole is where 'laid back' is a jealously cultivated way of life. Visit the nearby ruins of 17th century Dutch Fort Recovery. There are also several favorite 'watering holes', beloved by crews of visiting yachts, where the local gossip flows as freely as the rum.

Day 4: Sailing Sir Francis Drake Channel | The Bight, Norman Island

This famous channel of water named after the famous sailor lies south of Tortola and runs the full length of the island from St. John to Virgin Gorda. On the south side of the channel are several smaller islands including Norman and Peter Islands.

This uninhabited island is where many believe Robert Louis Stevenson became inspired to pen his famous pirate novel, Treasure Island. Star Clippers will drop you off on a jetty where you can walk onto the beach.

Day 5: Spanish Town, Virgin Gorda | Beach, Captain's Best

Take a bath at the "Baths", Virgin Gorda's unique water grottos formed eons ago by ancient lava flows. Huge boulders lie scattered around the natural pools, which are delightful for swimming or soaking. Virgin Gorda is also home to Little Dix Bay, the Bitter End Yacht Club, some excellent beaches, and the best sailing around.

The Captain will choose an anchorage with a lovely beach. BVI beaches are among the world's most beautiful, and better yet, are endlessly varied.

Day 6: Gustavia, St. Barts

In its elegant little capital of Gustavia, French joie de vivre is tempered by Swedish spic and span neatness. Diversions include duty-free shopping in exquisite boutiques, beautiful beaches, excellent dining and people-watching.

Day 7: Basseterre | South Friars Bay, St. Kitts

St. Kitts was the first successful colony in the British West Indies. Shop in colorful Basseterre, play golf and tour old plantation houses. For the adventuresome there's a brisk hike through the rainforest.

This beach is a beautiful beach with golden sands and calm, clear waters, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The beach is flanked by lush hills and offers a tranquil setting, with several beach bars and restaurants providing a laid-back atmosphere.

Day 8: Philipsburg, St Maarten | Disembark

  • 1 Breakfast
Disembark after breakfast and continue your independent trip back home.

The smallest island in the world shared by two countries, St. Martin/St. Maarten is big on shopping. Whether you go Dutch in Philipsburg or prefer Marigot's French touch, you're always welcome.

The trip might have been the absolute best of our lifetime (thus far). We particularly want to commend our guide Peter in the Guilin area-he was so incredibly attentive, energetic, enthusiastic-and absolutely dedicated to ensuring that our meals were 100% vegetarian.
