Itineraries
Top November Cruise Destinations
Spain & Portugal
Sail from Barcelona on a November cruise along the shores of the Iberian peninsula. You’ll visit Málaga, the birthplace of Picasso and the jumping-off point for Granada and the magnificent Alhambra’s Palace. Explore the intricate Royal Palace in Seville, and watch a mesmerizing flamenco show. Taste creamy pasteis de nata custard tarts on your visit to Lisbon, and learn how port wine is made in Porto. You’ll also visit historic Alicante and the buzzing city of Valencia, home of paella.
Southern Caribbean
November is a great month to soak up the sun in the far south of the Caribbean. The ABC islands—Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao—are known for their white sand beaches, teeming coral reefs, and colorful Dutch architecture. You could also join a longer voyage that visits Cartagena, Colombia, where cobbled streets are overhung with shocking pink bougainvillea, heading on to Panama and Costa Rica for rainforest adventures and wildlife spotting, and a visit to the extraordinary Panama Canal.
The Bahamas
Enjoy the dazzling light and technicolor shades of The Bahamas on a cruise in November. Snorkel in the warm, turquoise waters off one of Nassau’s white sand beaches, or snooze in a hammock on Blue Lagoon Island. Visit sleepy Bimini, where you can hand-feed stingrays at Honeymoon Harbor, or try your hand at thrilling sport fishing, as Hemingway did. See the writer’s former home in quirky Key West, too, and remember to try the famous Key lime pie while you’re there.
Galapagos
For extraordinary wildlife and rugged volcanic scenery in a place few are privileged enough to visit, sail to the Galapagos Islands. You’ll find luxurious accommodation and attentive service on small ships built especially for expeditions in this pristine place, with visits ashore and into the water led by expert naturalists. Enjoy Ecuador’s varied cuisine as well as international favorites, and spend time learning about the history and ecology of this astonishing archipelago.
Mexican Riviera
Relax in the sunshine as you sail from Los Angeles to the scenic Mexican Riviera. Stroll through the colonial-era “romantic zone” of Puerto Vallarta, or the colorful Old Town of Mazatlán. In Cabo San Lucas, join a whale watching trip, or taste tequila and learn to make—and dance—salsa. Visit a winery in Ensenada to learn about local viticulture, and sample the produce before setting sail back to California to end your magical November cruise.
Thailand & Vietnam
Discover the exotic scenery and dynamic cities of southeast Asia on a voyage between Hong Kong and Singapore. Bask on palm-fringed beaches on sleepy Ko Samui, and explore Bangkok’s shimmering temples and floating markets. Learn about Vietnam’s poignant history in Ho Chi Minh City, or hone your cooking skills in historic Hoi An. Discover the ancient Hindu temples at My Son, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and kayak or sail through the dramatic landscapes of Halong Bay.
