Cruises St. Lucia
 Cruisetravel.nl - Caribbean Cruises
Het Caribisch Gebied is één van de meest populaire cruisebestemmingen. Witte, uitgestrekte zandstranden, een azuurblauwe zee, wuivende palmen en swingende eilanden.
Vaart u naar het oostelijk deel dan bezoekt u b.v. St. Maarten, St. Lucia en Martinique, terwijl het westelijke
gedeelte Grand Cayman, Jamaica en Mexico omvat. Uw vertrek- en aankomsthaven is meestal Miami of Fort
Lauderdale, beide Amerikaanse badplaatsen met gezellig drukke boulevards, winkels en restaurants. Ideaal
om een paar dagen extra te verblijven voor of na uw cruise. En… het klimaat is het gehele jaar door
aangenaam! Witte zandstanden, een azuurblauwe zee, wuivende palmen en een charmante bevolking. Dat is de Caribbean op zijn best.
Cruise Travel is de cruise specialist bij uitstek.
