Ports

Fort Lauderdale

Originally a fort built by the U.S. Army in 1838, during the Second Seminole War, Ft. Lauderdale has little left of its warlike past. Instead the city welcomes visitors with broad beaches and an easy pace of life, plus convenient air and water connections that make the city a perfect place to begin or end a cruise.

Horta

A welcome sight for sailors through the centuries drawn to the shelter of its harbour, Horta and the volcanic islands surrounding it remain one of the most isolated spots in the Atlantic. Yet, the volcanic nature of the landscape belies its colourful landscape. Pretty windmills sit among lavender shrubs and a blue haze rises above fields of hydrangeas – the colour from which ‘The Blue Island’ of Faial earns its name.
