Pearls of the Caribbean

PONANT brings you an itinerary to the heart of the most enchanting islands in the Caribbean Sea. Board on Le Dumont-d’Urville for a 9-day cruise combining long white-sand beaches and the easy Creole way of life. Throughout your journey, you will benefit from an excursion included per person per port of call, to choose from a selection offered by PONANT. During this cruise, enjoy a nature hike in Syndicate from Portsmouth, appreciate the beauty of Les Saintes by boat and during a swim, or explore the town of Soufrière, between land and sea, on Saint Lucia. The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments (to discover the full range of excursions, go to the itinerary tab). From Vieux Fort, Le Dumont-d’Urville will set sail to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Bequia Island, the ‘whale-hunting island’, and its wild and unspoiled coastline. You will enjoy the lively atmosphere of Port Elizabeth, the island’s main town. After a call at Mayreau, your sailing yacht will anchor in the Tobago Cays National Park. This rosary of islands, bound together by the most beautiful coral reef in the West Indies, will reveal its incredible underwater wildlife and its secret coves. You will then island hop gently towards Saint Lucia and its two majestic rocky peaks soaring straight from the sea, a unique location listed as UNESCO World Heritage site. Further north, Le Dumont-d’Urville will sail towards the charming shores of Guadeloupe. On Marie-Galante, the final port of call of your cruise, you will enjoy practically deserted beaches and be immersed in an authentic and agricultural atmosphere focused on growing sugar cane. You will sail towards the enchanting setting offered by the island of Dominica - the Nature Island - before you finally reach Vieux Fort. An experienced diving instructor is on board for the entire cruise, enabling you to safely enjoy swimming and scuba diving.
