With Celebrity’s year-round sailings in the Caribbean, you can be whisked away from everyday doldrums and delivered to island paradises with simply one itinerary. Experience new cultures, incredible culinary delights and jaw-dropping natural beauty, thanks to all Celebrity Beyond® has to offer. To get a glimpse of one such possible itinerary through the Caribbean, read on.
Enjoy a stroll through the streets of highly photographable Puerto Plata.
Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic
Inhabited by the Taino people for centuries before Christopher Colombus showed up, Puerto Plata has a long, rich history and culture. A stroll through the streets might find you admiring the largest collection of 19th-century Victorian-style houses in the Caribbean, or the oldest amber fossils in the world at the Amber Museum. But adventure awaits outside the city: Paddle through a manatee preserve or soar through the treetops on a zip line. Take a dip at the awesome 27 Waterfalls complex. Hike through the lush jungle of El Choco National Park. No matter if you’re looking for nature, history or adventure, Puerto Plata has it all.
Philipsburg, St. Maarten may seem small, but it packs a lot of experience into its four streets.
Philipsburg, St. Maarten
On the Dutch half of the island, Philipsburg is comprised of four street-runways, all less than a mile long and all jam-packed with colorful houses, shops and restaurants. World-class alluring beaches are a stone’s throw away; sunbathers and beachcombers alike will delight in strolling the white sands. Further out, divers and snorkelers can get their adventure fix with the sunken shipwrecks just offshore. Of course, no visit to St. Maarten is complete without a photo op at Jet Blast Beach — where planes make startlingly close fly-bys on their way to the neighboring airport. The best part of the city though? The cuisine. This is a celebrated culinary capital: You must try the barbecued ribs and chicken.
The Sunset Bar onboard Celebrity Beyond is hands-down the place to be for sunset.
It’s Always Island-Time with Celebrity Beyond
The third ship in the revolutionary Edge® Series, Celebrity Beyond continues to elevate the line’s innovative outward-facing design to new heights. Your days at sea will be comprised of you unwinding in expanded open-air spaces, savoring fine dining that rivals the best land-based restaurants you’ve tried and regularly surprising yourself with new ways to relax and feel renewed (such as SEA Thermal Suite, the Persian Garden or the Kérastase Salon, just to name a few). With itineraries threading their way through every Caribbean port you can think of (and then some), you can be assured that your time at sea will be just as sunny, action-packed (or relaxing) as your time at the beach.
Trust a Travel Agent for Your Tropical Escape
The only way to experience all of the above is with a Caribbean cruise onboard the Celebrity Beyond — but did you know the best way to cruise is by booking with a travel agent? Not only will you have plenty of time for the sights and experiences listed above, but you’ll also enjoy some sweet perks working with a professional — exclusive amenities, a treasure-trove of recommendations and peace of mind for life’s curveballs, to start. Our agents know Celebrity well, so we can help you choose, plan and book your cruise vacation to perfection.
