Crossing continents is the quest of this voyage, departing Lisbon. Yet, although we’ll leave the capital of Portugal far behind, our first port is one of the country’s outposts, Madeira, now garlanded with lilies and passion flowers thanks to its mild climate. A day at sea delivers us to the Azores for more Portuguese culture, the possibility of an invigorating hike, and some whale-watching. Four days at sea allows lots of time to slip into cruise life and enjoy all the ship has to offer. Then Antigua emerges on the horizon. Bask on one of its many beaches before we hop across the Caribbean, visiting Tortola in the British Virgin Islands to snorkel with the sea turtles, and Puerto Rico to stroll the pretty pastel-colored streets of San Juan. Last chance to indulge in the spa or lounge around the pool, as we take the scenic route to our final stop, Fort Lauderdale.
