About Our Ports of Call
Bimini, Bahamas
Bimini island was a favorite of Ernest Hemingway and, according to some, a possible location of the lost city of Atlantis. Miles of white sand beaches and clear blue-green turquoise waters await you, along with endless opportunities for fishing, diving, and water sports. On Bimini, you’ll find more to do per square mile than anywhere in The Bahamas’ Out Islands.
Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic
Puerto Plata is the Dominican Republic’s oldest city in the north and a tourism pioneer. Nestled by the ocean with a mountainous backdrop, the city offers a lively pier, which is known as the Malecon, colorful shops, and opulent homes from the 1800s. The city is famous for Parque Independencia (also known as Parque Central), a park fringed by royal palms and Victorian architecture. In Puerto Plata, you can hop on a cable car for sky-high views, take a tour of the local cacao farms, and buy some of the clearest amber in the world.
