Barbados and the Catamaran Cruise and Turtle Encounter. This catamaran and lunch cruise leaves Bridgetown Shallow Draught and after a pleasant sail along the coast, anchors in a quiet bay. Take to the warm, inviting waters, snorkel, or relax on the beach. Afterwards you can simply relax - lie in the shady cabin, bask in the sun on deck and enjoy the beautiful scenery. After relaxation, you set sail to an area where you will have the unique opportunity to view and swim with the enchanting Hawksbill Turtles, an opportunity not to be missed. A buffet luncheon is served onboard and an open bar serves unlimited soft drinks, juice, beer wine and rum.

Marco Polo is an elegant vessel with original wooden decks, small enough to get to know your way around and offer the unique country-house-hotel style experience on board that Cruise & Maritime Voyages are known for.

The fares are based on two people sharing an inner twin cabin on a full board basis with afternoon teas, daytime activities and evening entertainment, complimentary tea and coffee between 06.00 and 22.00. Gratuities of £5pp per night will be debited to the onboard account.
