Ports

Miami, U.S.A. The largest city in Florida is one of the trendiest cities in the world. With its high rise buildings, blue ocean, and tropical climate Miami offers the perfect mix of Caribbean temperament and American prosperity. Miami Beach, Bayside Marketplace, the marina, the Freedom Tower, Coconut Grove, Coral Cables and the beautiful nearby "Everglades National Park" are just a few of the highlights that will make a visit to this city more than worthwhile.

Monaco and its surroundings offer marvellous landscapes and sea views unique to the South of France. This is where the rich and famous come to live the good life! Rent a car if you have the time, and visit the old village of Eze, and La Turbie where you can see the ‘Trophy of Augustus’. The nearby town of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin is largely built onto a mountain wall and can only be explored on foot. Of course, you can also saunter through Monaco proper and perhaps make a wager in its casinos.
