Club Med Caribbean cruises at a glance

From late November 2026 to late March 2027, the Club Med 2 spends the winter in the Caribbean Sea. This 187-metre, five-masted sailing ship in the Exclusive Collection range welcomes passengers aboard in Fort-de-France, Martinique, in Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe, and in La Romana, Dominican Republic. Fourteen departures lasting one to almost four weeks link the Grenadines, the ABC Islands, the Virgin Islands, St. Barts, Jamaica, the Bahamas and even Panama. The formula is all-inclusive, children are welcome from age 8, and two French-speaking home ports are connected to Montreal, which makes these cruises one of the easiest ways to escape the Quebec winter aboard a sailing ship.

When does the Club Med 2 sail in the Caribbean?

The 2026-2027 season begins on November 30, 2026 in Fort-de-France and ends on March 26, 2027 in La Romana. The ship arrives from Europe on the Autumn Transatlantic and heads back to the Mediterranean on the Spring Transatlantic. In between, it sails one cruise after another: the holidays, January, spring break and March are all covered. It is the dry season in the Antilles, with trade winds cooling the deck and a sea that is often calm in the anchorages.

Which cruises are scheduled for winter 2026-2027?

The season opens with ABC Islands Escape, from November 30 to December 11, round trip from Fort-de-France. Next come British Virgin Islands, from December 11 to 19, then the two holiday departures: Caribbean Christmas, from December 19 to 26, and Tropical New Year's Eve, from December 26 to January 2. January offers Leeward Islands to Hispaniola, Dominican and Jamaican Shores, then Pearls of the Lesser Antilles. February brings Turquoise Colour, St. Barts and the Virgin Islands, Creole Sweetness and Course for the Dominican Republic. The season ends with From the Bahamas to the Two Americas, from February 28 to March 26, 2027, a long cultural cruise that can also be booked in two parts: Azure Lagoons and Wild Shores, to Colón in Panama, then Traditions and Hidden Paradises, for the return to La Romana.

What does a typical week on board look like?

The ABC Islands Escape cruise gives a good idea of the rhythm. The ship leaves Fort-de-France in the evening, drops anchor the next day off St. Lucia, then at the Tobago Cays, a string of protected islets where you swim over seagrass beds with turtles. After a day at sea, it calls at Bonaire, Aruba and Curaçao, the Dutch islands with their colourful facades, before heading back north via Grenada, Mayreau and Bequia. Most calls run from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., and in the evening you return to the teak deck to watch the sun set over a new island.

What does the Club Med 2 all-inclusive package cover?

The package covers your cabin, meals from morning to evening in the ship's restaurants, the open bar, daytime and evening entertainment, and the water sports offered from the stern marina when the ship is at anchor: water skiing, wakeboarding, kayaking and snorkelling. Deluxe cabins and suites also enjoy breakfast served in the cabin, champagne from 6 p.m. and a concierge service. Shore excursions, spa treatments and some extras are booked à la carte. Your advisor gives you the exact list for your departure.

Which cruise should you choose for the holidays?

Caribbean Christmas leaves Pointe-à-Pitre on December 19 for a week in the Lesser Antilles: Les Saintes, St. Lucia, Barbados, Grenada, the Tobago Cays, then Mayreau on Christmas Day, before arriving in Fort-de-France on December 26. Tropical New Year's Eve takes over the same day, round trip from Fort-de-France, to ring in 2027 at sea. Both departures carry the family label, with a program for teenagers led by two G.O: a bridge visit, beach afternoons and an introduction to water sports. These are the most sought-after weeks of the winter.

Are there themed cruises this winter?

Yes, and they give the trip a special flavour. Turquoise Colour, from January 29 to February 6, is dedicated to yoga and wellness. Dominican and Jamaican Shores, from January 11 to 22, offers an optional golf package led by PGA professional Michel Hernandez, with five green fees in Jamaica and the Dominican Republic. The same itinerary calls at Santo Domingo, Montego Bay, Ocho Rios, Port Antonio and Puerto Plata, and stops in Samaná Bay to watch humpback whales from a boat reserved for Club Med 2 passengers. Finally, the March cultural cruises are for travellers who like to understand the places they visit.

How do you get to the port of embarkation from Quebec?

This is the great advantage of the season for Quebec travellers. Fort-de-France and Pointe-à-Pitre are connected to Montreal in winter, and you board in a French-speaking port, in euros, with no culture shock. La Romana is reached through Punta Cana or La Romana airport, depending on the flights on your date. Boarding takes place in the late afternoon, from 4 to 8 p.m., and disembarkation in the morning, from 9 to 11 a.m. Your advisor books the flights, transfers and, if needed, a hotel night the day before, so you can set sail with peace of mind.

Can you combine the cruise with a resort stay?

Yes, and it is often the most beautiful way to travel. A cruise starting or ending in Fort-de-France extends nicely at Club Med Les Boucaniers, on Sainte-Anne beach in Martinique. From Pointe-à-Pitre, Club Med La Caravelle is less than an hour's drive from the port. In La Romana, Club Med Punta Cana and Club Med Michès Playa Esmeralda let you spend a few days with your toes in the sand before or after sailing. Club Med also offers a private transfer between the resort and the ship.

What documents do you need for a Caribbean cruise?

A valid Canadian passport is required, even when departing from Martinique or Guadeloupe, because the itineraries call in several countries: Barbados, St. Lucia, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas or Panama, depending on the departure. Some ports of call have their own entry formalities. Your advisor checks the requirements for your itinerary when you book and reminds you of them before departure.

Who are these cruises designed for?

The Club Med 2 welcomes about 400 passengers in 184 cabins of 18 to 40 square metres. This size creates the atmosphere of a large yacht where you quickly learn the G.O's first names, and it lets the ship enter bays that larger vessels sail past. Couples find the intimacy of a sailing ship, sea lovers find ports of call where you swim a few metres from the boat, and families with children aged 8 and over enjoy the departures labelled family. To discover the ship itself, its decks and its cabins, see our Club Med 2 yacht page.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is From the Bahamas to the Two Americas, from February 28 to March 26, 2027, round trip from La Romana. This cultural cruise of almost four weeks reaches Colón, Panama, before heading back to the Dominican Republic. You can also sail only the first or the second half, depending on how much time you have.
Yes. The Dominican and Jamaican Shores cruise, from January 11 to 22, 2027, stops in Samaná Bay, in the Dominican Republic, where humpback whales come to breed every winter. Whale watching takes place aboard a boat chartered for Club Med 2 passengers, which makes the outing more pleasant and less crowded.
They are five small uninhabited islets in the Grenadines, surrounded by a reef and protected by a marine park. The water is remarkably clear, and you often swim with the green turtles grazing on the seagrass. The Club Med 2 anchors there on several winter cruises, including ABC Islands Escape and Caribbean Christmas.
They are offered from the ship's stern marina when it is at anchor, in bays such as Mayreau, Bequia or Les Saintes. When the Club Med 2 is docked in a port, the marina stays closed and the day is devoted to exploring the town. Each cruise's fact sheet shows the calls where water activities are planned.
From December to March, it is the dry season. Days hover around 28 to 30 °C, the sea stays warm, and the trade winds blow steadily, which a sailing ship loves. Showers are short when they come. A light sweater is handy on deck in the evening, especially in January.
The atmosphere is relaxed by day and elegant in the evening, without being stiff. A few themed evenings invite you to dress for the occasion. Bring soft-soled shoes for the teak deck and water sandals for tender landings on the beaches.
Boarding takes place on the afternoon of departure, from 4 to 8 p.m., and disembarkation on the last morning, from 9 to 11 a.m. On a 400-passenger ship, everything moves quickly: you step aboard, drop your bags and find yourself on deck within minutes.
Yes. The February and early March departures, such as St. Barts and the Virgin Islands, Creole Sweetness or Course for the Dominican Republic, fall during Quebec's spring break weeks. Two of them carry the family label. They fill up early, because the ship has only 184 cabins.
Yes. St. Lucia, with its Pitons rising above the sea, features on ABC Islands Escape and Caribbean Christmas. Barbados is a port of call on Caribbean Christmas, on December 22. Itineraries change from one cruise to the next, and your advisor shows you the day-by-day fact sheet for each departure.
Yes. The Club Med 2 rotates its cruises between Fort-de-France, Pointe-à-Pitre and La Romana, and several departures leave from one port and arrive in another. You therefore need to book a return flight from the arrival port. Your advisor takes care of it and arranges transfers at both ends.
