New Cruises From St Lucia

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 30, 2016

P&O Cruise Lines is coming to St Lucia.

The cruise line has selected St Lucia to be its home port destination as part of a seven-night cruise itinerary.

The company’s Britannia cruise ship will begin St Lucia cruises Nov. 12, embarking on 28 voyages from St Lucia through March 4, 2017.

“Introducing new itineraries that all depart or return to Saint Lucia will offer a new dimension to our Caribbean cruises,” said Christopher Edgington, marketing director at P&O. “Saint Lucia is a popular destination with passengers and no other cruise line has it as a homeport, so we are looking to make the most of this by offering an exciting range of shore excursions to maximize the time there.”

The maiden cruise will be calling at Dominica, Antigua, St Maarten and Barbados.
