Your cruise at a glance
Hand-crafted highlights
Your Balmoral cruise from Southampton will take you on a journey of sunkissed Canary Islands with year-round sunshine to the paradise beaches of the Caribbean. Wander the narrow streets of Cádiz and explore the lunarlike landscapes of Arrecife, before discovering the cosmpolitan island of St. Maarten, renowned for its unique blend of French and Dutch cultures. You will have opportunities to sample delicious Canarian dishes like papas arrugadas (potatoes with spicy Mojo sauce), and empanadas accompanied by velvety-rich Columbian coffee in Cartagena de Indias as you immerse yourself in daily life. Meanwhile, you can go in search of exotic flora and fauna on a specially organised shore tour or simply relax on one of the many beautiful beaches you will encounter.

Visa and health requirements can change at any time. It is your own responsibility to ensure that you check with a professionally qualified source and comply with such requirements. UK passport holders will need visas for certain Fred. Olsen cruise holidays and will be advised at the time of booking.

Disembarking when your ship's at anchor is a very different experience to when it's docked portside. Getting ashore in this instance often involves the use of the ship's tender, which is accessed via the steps of a secure gangway.
