They've done a great job spicing things up! I was just lamenting to someone the other day that all of my favorite luxury cruise lines are doing the same-old same old in the Caribbean. With SeaDream's new itineraries, there are quite a few that will lure even die-hard Caribbean cruisers who feel as if they've seen every bay and cove there is to discover.<br /><br />In January 2009, <span>SeaDream I </span>alternates between 5- and 9-day voyages between San Juan and Puerto Rico. Some of the more interesting ports of call include:<br /><br /><div>Gustavia, St. Barthelemy<br />Virgin Gorda, BVI<br />Honeymoon Beach, Water Island<br />Anegada, BVI<br />Saba, Netherlands Antilles<br />Peter Island, BVI<br />Culebrita, Puerto Rico<br />Esperanza, Vieques<br />Iles des Saintes, Guadeloupe<br /></div><br />During the same time period, <span>SeaDream II</span> is plying the waters around San Juan with 7-day cruises.<br /><br />In February 2009, SeaDream extends its reach to Dominica, St. Lucia (Rodney Bay and Castries), Montserrat, and Antigua. There's an especially intriguing 4-day Valentine's Day sailing that whisks travelers from San Juan to Culebrita, Puerto Rico; Esperanza, Vieques, Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas; Honeymoon Beach, Water Island; Jost van Dyke, BVI; and back to San Juan.<br /><br />SeaDream continues to explore St. Lucia in March, with calls on Soufrier Bay and Marigot Bay. The Grenadines are also added to the mix (Tobago Cays, Bequia, and Mayreau).<br /><br />With temperatures rising in April, SeaDream's yachts focus on Samana, Dominican Republic, the Bahamas (Port Lucaya, Egg Island, and Nassau), Turks &amp; Caicos (Cockburn Town), and Florida (Miami and Key West).<br /><br />It's nice to see this change-up when it comes to Caribbean cruising. I'll be looking forward to a getaway in 2009!
