Caribbean to Europe – Martinique & Azores

About this cruise

If you've got 23 nights to work with, this sailing from Fort-de-France on March 28, 2026 through Pointe-à-Pitre, Castries and Bridgetown, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You wind up in Southampton, so it's worth planning a night or two there. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The route threads through 10 countries along the Caribbean coast: Guadeloupe, St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Vincent & Grenadines, Grenada, Sint Maarten, Portugal, Germany, France and United Kingdom. Saint Vincent Island stands out. It's Volcanic drama in the Grenadine chain. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC Virtuosa has 7 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Fort-de-France itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All in all, it's a solid trip.
