We’re bound for Europe on this voyage from Fort Lauderdale in Florida. First, there’s time to slip into laid-back mode with a relaxing day at sea before arriving at the dreamy shores of Grand Turk in the Turks and Caicos, beloved by snorkelers for its emerald waters and teeming reef. Next, Samana in the Dominican Republic, so famous for whale-watching that it has a museum dedicated to the awesome sea creature, followed by seductive San Juan, Puerto Rico, with its colorful old colonial streets. Five days at sea take us across the Atlantic Ocean, ample time to enjoy all the ship has to offer, from spa treatments to pickleball and a throw of the dice in the casino. The Azores come into view at Horta and Ponta Delgada, for Portuguese cooking and culture, plus invigorating hikes. One more sea day and we reach our final port, Lisbon, for an overnight, enough time to wander its quaint cobbled streets.
