About this cruise

Ten nights lets the itinerary reach further west and stay longer in each port. Holland America's smaller ships also berth closer to the towns, which removes the shuttle-bus problem that dogs the bigger vessels.

  • Six ports including Half Moon Cay
  • Stingray City sandbar from George Town
  • Longer stays in port than a standard seven-night loop
