Cunard has unveiled 32 new and exclusive shore excursions designed specifically for Queen Elizabeth’s maiden season sailing to the Caribbean from Miami this fall.
Shore excursions span 12 destinations including St. Lucia, St. Maarten, Jamaica, and St. Thomas, among others.
“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,” said Katie McAlister, president of Cunard. “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.”
Examples of excursions include a private catamaran trip around Antigua’s coastline with sushi and barbeque prepared by a Michelin-starred chef, an off-road 4×4 adventure in Barbados, culminating in a cheese and wine picnic, and a Barbuda Belle luxury beach escape by helicopter in Antigua.
Starting Oct. 16, 2025, Queen Elizabeth will spend a full season in Miami offering a dedicated program of roundtrip Caribbean itineraries ranging from nine to 28 nights.
