The Caribbean is renowned for its pristine white beaches and clear turquoise waters, but there is much more waiting to be explored. Beyond the beautiful islands and beaches, there is a rich culture, historic landmarks, delicious food, and vibrant local celebrations.
Embark on a P&O Cruises vacation aboard the Arvia, a ship designed with bright, airy spaces and outdoor pools to fully enjoy the warm and sunny Caribbean climate. Begin your journey in the lively Bridgetown, Barbados, a city steeped in history and charm, before setting sail to explore the wonders of the Caribbean.
Your cruise will include popular destinations like St. Lucia and St. Kitts, as well as hidden gems such as the unique St. Maarten and the picturesque Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. Each day offers a new and breathtaking view to wake up to.
P&O Cruises provides a wide range of shore experiences, allowing you to tailor your trip to your preferences. Dive into an unforgettable adventure by snorkeling above a shipwreck and swimming with local sea life off the coast of Barbados. Alternatively, experience the legendary Oistins Fish Fry, a weekly street party filled with delectable seafood, music, and cocktails.
In St. Lucia, challenge yourself with a hike up the 2,600ft Gros Piton, one of the island’s volcanic spires, for stunning panoramic views. For a more relaxed experience, savor the scenery with a glass of rum punch aboard the St. Kitts Scenic Railway, or indulge in a luxurious lobster lunch during a tour of Antigua.
On a P&O Cruises vacation, the journey is as exciting as the destinations, especially aboard the captivating Arvia.
