Cunard will offer a specially curated selection of 32 exclusive shore experiences for guests aboard Queen Elizabeth during her inaugural Miami season, beginning October 16, 2025.
These activities, known as the Caribbean Iconic Collection, extend across 12 Caribbean destinations—from St Lucia to St Maarten and St Thomas—delivering immersive day‑long encounters designed to deepen connections with the region.
Highlights include a private catamaran excursion along Antigua’s coastline with onboard sushi and barbecue prepared by a Michelin‑starred chef; a tranquil visit to a secluded island in Anguilla; and a rugged off‑road 4×4 expedition in Barbados, culminating in a cheese‑and‑wine picnic in the wilderness.
Smaller‑scale experiences feature helicopter transfers to the Barbuda Belle luxury beach and an immersive coffee‑processing session in the Dominican Republic. Guests can also explore historic Old San Juan and the El Yunque rainforest on a private tour of Puerto Rico.
These journeys are delivered in partnership with local expert guides, ensuring access to off‑the‑beaten‑path locations alongside more familiar highlights.
Katie McAlister, Cunard’s president, noted that the experiences are designed to foster lasting memories and deeper cultural engagement while maintaining Cunard’s high standards.
For the first time in its history, Queen Elizabeth will spend a full Caribbean season home‑ported in Miami, offering round‑trip voyages ranging from 9 to 28 nights.
Her inaugural voyage departs on October 16—set as a 12‑night round‑trip calling at Bridgetown (Barbados), Castries (St Lucia), and other popular ports—including Antigua, St Maarten, and Tortola.
Fares begin at GBP 799 per person for a Britannia Balcony stateroom.
