About This Cruise
The 13 Night Tropical Sunsets is a 13-night one-way itinerary aboard Marella Cruises Marella Explorer 2. You board in Bridgetown and disembark in Malaga, calling at 6 ports across 6 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Barbados (Bridgetown), St Lucia (Castries), Dominica (Roseau), Antigua (St Johns), Gibraltar (Gibraltar) and Spain (Malaga).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Bridgetown and home from Malaga, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 8 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
