Day 1 - Fort Lauderdale, Florida
 South Florida's warm climate and sparkling waters make it a magnet for water sport enthusiasts. From the beaches and recreational waterways, to the lively arts and cultural scene, gay friendly Fort Lauderdale has become a world-class destination. Speed through the thrilling Everglades on an airboat, meeting Florida’s alligators and other wildlife up close, or glide in a gondola along Fort Lauderdale’s canals. Ogle at the yachts and smart houses in Millionaire’s Row and the Intracoastal Waterway or hang out on the beautiful beaches and seafront promenades. Don’t miss the shops and restaurants in trendy Las Olas Boulevard, a great place for people watching.
Day 2 - Nassau, Bahamas
 With dazzling beaches, turquoise waters, colorful past and vibrant Junkanoo culture, Nassau is a great place to sun and sightsee. The city is on New Providence Island; just offshore is Paradise Island, home to luxury hotels and resorts. Snorkelling in clear blue lagoons, swimming with dolphins, watery fun and games in an aqua adventure park – there’s plenty to enjoy in stunning Nassau. Relax to the sweet sound of the steel drums, sip a cocktail at sunset or see baby sea turtles being hatched. At Predator Lagoon, get up close to sharks and barracudas or indulge in tantalising shopping – it’s what dream holidays are all about.
Day 3 - A Day at Sea!
 Sit back, kick off your shoes and put your feet up during our 'at sea' days, where you can chill in the bar, lounge by the pool or enjoy a relaxing beauty treatment in the spa. For simple pleasures, why not try a game of table tennis? Or if you’re feeling energetic, now’s the chance to explore all the amazing activities the ship has to offer, from spectacular, West-End-style entertainment to adrenalin-charged sports.
Day 4 - Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas
 Beyond the glitz of its famous shopping district, St. Thomas enchants with a fascinating history and natural scenery. Explore the island's diverse heritage in Charlotte Amalie, or splash your way around at vibrant reefs or a gorgeous beach. Sail on a pirate schooner to Buck Island, dropping anchor in beautiful Turtle Bay for superb snorkelling. Swim with playful dolphins in nearby Tortola or soar through the rainforest canopy on a spectacular zip-line. Find out about Charlotte Amalie’s pirate history at Blackbeard’s Castle or explore 17th-century Fort Christian. There’s golf, diving and shopping on this paradise island too, plus a thrilling skyride.
Day 5 - Basseterre, St. Kitts
 St. Kitts was a tropical prize over which the European powers fought for more than a century. Discover French and British heritage in Basseterre and the complex colonial legacy amongst the ruins of fortresses and once-grand estates. Columbus first spotted St. Kitts in 1493 and you’ll be entranced by its sunny skies, beautiful white sand beaches and turquoise waters. Dive among the colourful coral and fish, see monkeys, mongoose, sheep and goats in the fields and rainforest or hike to the rim of a steaming volcano. Ride the St. Kitts Scenic Railway through old sugar plantations or explore Brimstone Hill Fortress for breathtaking views over the ocean.
Days 6 & 7 - Days at Sea!
 When our ships hit the high seas, the excitement of Casino Royale® kicks off. Try your hand at our card tables, spin to win at roulette, and hit it big time with the pull of a slot machine. Onboard, dining is about more than just food. Think ambience, variety and the flexibility to decide when and what you savor. Whether you seek an adrenaline rush or total tranquility, our ships have it all. Try rock climbing, zip-lining and surfing 200 feet above the waves. Melt away land-based stress with a spa massage, build a scrapbook of memories or simply relax poolside.
