Atlantic crossings can stop in the Azores – Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel is not in the Caribbean, but in the Azores mid-Atlantic. Because of its position the island is visited on many Caribbean cruises to and from the UK. Many cruising fans will book this crossing just for the ship and the journey. If you stop in Azores, Doris Bar is on the harbour front, behind Moby Dick Tours and before Atlantic Bowling. Spotted by Manuel Martinez while waiting for the Arcadia.Click here for the special CARIBBEAN SEASON destination menu. Each major Island and Caribbean Season Destination has a guide or film about the tours here !Ponta Delgada – The town itself can have four different seasons or weather changes in a day. If you are on the way home from the Caribbean it will feel chilly, on the way out it will feel warm. It is pretty and quite Spanish in style but there is little to see other than a few churches and the square so you might want to book a tour or activity see the options on the Get Your Guide section. It is one of the best places to dive, and that can be arranged before travel. See our film for a contact. It is not an easy port for ships to get into, so the cabaret artists always fret that the weather might not allow them to get in to make the transfer to their next contract.CHAT GROUP – Cruise the Caribbean Chat – If you love the Caribbean then share here.

There are two gardens you can walk to one of which features in the film below. It has a children’s area. This is a Portuguese island with less than 100,000 residents. These volcanic islands have been populated since 1444 and the first to be established were fishing villages.
