Trinidad / Special Interests / Cruise Ship

By Sara Macefield

Trinidad is rather off the beaten track as far as cruising goes. Its southern location, just off the coast of Venezuela, means it is too far to be included in shorter sailings from the Florida ports. Thus it tends to pop up in longer cruises or in those that start at another Caribbean island. It attracts lines including Princess Cruises and Oceania Cruises.

Ships we recommend are owned by the following companies:

Compagnie du Ponant - Gallic luxury and continental charm are the hallmarks of this upscale line’s fleet of five ships, including a three-masted yacht and three mega-yachts, which offer bilingual sailings in sumptuous surrounds.

Silversea - Seriously upmarket and unashamedly opulent, this family-owned line’s six ships offer all-suite accommodation, first-rate service and exquisite cuisine.
