Fort Lauderdale, Florida There is an abundance of things to see and do in the Ft. Lauderdale area: visit the newly redesigned Ft. Lauderdale Beach and cafes, stroll the historic Riverwalk, shop the luxurious stores on Las Olas Boulevard or adventure to the Everglades for an intriguing air boat excursion.

Grand Turk, Turk and Caicos Islands Grand Turk is the capital of the Turks and Caicos Island. This small island is bursting with turn-of-the-century charm.  Founded by Bermudan Salt Rakers some three centuries ago, its Bermudan British colonial architecture amidst the colorful Caribbean style dwellings make Grand Turk worth a visit.  Blessed with miles of quiet sugary beaches, it is close to several uninhabited cays just waiting to be explored. Grand Turk excels in providing spectacular diving, snorkeling, fishing and sailing. The warm Atlantic waters are filled with an incredible array of marine life dolphins to the magnificent humpback whale.

San Juan, Puerto Rico Historic Old San Juan is Puerto Rico’s bastion of Spanish colonial tradition with well-preserved buildings lining cobblestone streets, wrought-iron balconies ablaze with purple bougainvillea, and the massive El Morro Fortress which guards the harbor.  Nearby, new San Juan flaunts a sleek skyline of luxury resort hotels, glittering casinos and nightclubs.  Nature lovers will enjoy the El Yunque rainforest with its mountain lakes and waterfalls.

St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands The beautiful scenery alone would fulfill the dreams of most visitors – but there is much more.  This laid-back island paradise is also a shopping Shangri-La.  Once a haven for merchant, naval and pirate ships, the waterfront warehouses that were filled with pirate booty in the past have been converted into duty-free shops stocked with imported luxuries.  Glimmering bays, clear blue water, and powdery sand beaches surround St. Thomas.  The stunning Magen’s Bay is listed as one of the ten most beautiful beaches in the world.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas This Bahamian island captures all the magic of a secluded retreat.  Privately owned by Holland America, Half Moon Cay remains largely in its pristine, natural state, with a wonderful Wild Bird Preserve designated by the Bahamian National Trust.  Its beach is a two-mile-long, crescent-shaped bay with silky, white sand beaches - the perfect tropical island paradise you dream of.  Enjoy Swimming and snorkeling, glass bottom boat rides, and a variety of activities from the Water Sports Center.
