NEW 2004 ITINERARIES
* indicates port of embarkation St. Lucia is a small, lush tropical island located between Martinique and St. Vincent, north of Barbados. Its eastern shore hugs the Atlantic Ocean, while its west coast borders the Caribbean Sea. Its dramatic twin coastal peaks soar 2,000 feet up from the sea, sheltering magnificent rain forests. It's dotted with aged fortresses, small villages and open-air markets, and popular among snorkelers, scuba divers, hikers and bird-watchers. Antigua is the largest of the British Leeward islands. Located just 17 degrees north of the equator and south and east of Nevis, St. Kitts, St. Barts and St. Martin, Antigua is best known for its magnificent coral reef, beautiful harbor, winding coastline and powdery soft beaches. San Juan is the second oldest city in the Americas and the oldest under the U.S. flag. Old San Juan is a 465-year-old neighborhood that has evolved into a charming residential and commercial district. San Juan's beach & resort area is dotted with hotels, casinos, nightclubs, restaurants and boutiques. Disney Cruise Line vacations feature magical entertainment, age-specific activities and unique dining experiences. Disney's seven-night vacations begin at $829, while the 10-night holiday cruise starts at $1,899. Rates are per person, based on double occupancy, with discounted fares available to additional guests in each stateroom and guests under the age of 13. Government taxes and fees are not included. Disney Cruise Line offers seven-night eastern and western Caribbean vacations, three- and four-night cruises to the Bahamas, and land/sea packages that combine the fun and excitement of the Walt Disney World Resort with the enchantment of a Disney Cruise Line voyage to the Bahamas.
