Sit back and relax as your Captain cruises some of the most impressive mountain seascapes in the world. As we cruise past the majestic Pitons, the sun is low in the sky and the evening trade winds are blowing their cooling breeze over the waters. Toast your companions. You may be one of the very few who witness the “Green Flash”, the rarely seen signature of “The Twilight of the Gods”.

dramatic coral reef walls that begin only a few feet from shore and drop off steeply into the ocean
depths.
