The  beautiful Bank Barrier coral reef wavers just beneath you as your ship makes the break to the bird sanctuary of Prickly Pear Island, so named because it is dotted with prickly pear cacti.

After all that, you’ll be ready for an evening drink on the beach — where you can admire your Windstar ship aglow in the harbor.
