Cunard has unveiled a collection of new shore experiences in the Caribbean for guests aboard Queen Elizabeth’s maiden season from Miami, with voyages departing from Oct. 16, 2025.
Part of the cruise line’s new Iconic Collection, these 32 experiences span across the Caribbean, from Saint Lucia to St. Maarten, and are ideal for everyone from adventure-seekers and nature enthusiast to foodies. Passengers can opt for a private catamaran trip around Antigua’s coastline with a sushi and barbecue spread prepared by a Michelin-starred chef, a visit to a secluded island in Anguilla or an off-road 4×4 adventure in Barbados, culminating in a cheese and wine picnic.
Other options include a private tour of Puerto Rico, visiting sites such as Old San Juan and El Yunque Rainforest; the Dominican Coffee Experience, getting hands-on in the creative process; a Barbuda Belle Luxury Beach Escape by Helicopter in Antigua; and a Luxury Day Pass at Scrub Island Resort in Tortola.
Katie McAlister, President of Cunard, said in a media statement, “The Caribbean has long been a favorite destination for our guests, and we’re pleased to offer a new way to experience these much-loved islands through our Iconic Collection. These experiences go beyond the usual tourist spots—they’re designed to create lasting memories and deeper connections with each place, all with the signature Cunard touch our guests expect.”
Queen Elizabeth will spend the full season in Miami, offering a dedicated program of roundtrip Caribbean cruises with itineraries ranging from nine to 28 nights. The inaugural voyage departs on Oct. 16—a 12-night roundtrip sailing with visits to Bridgetown’s UNESCO-listed Garrison and bustling markets of Castries, Saint Lucia.
