The thematic cruises
Navigating to dream destinations by combining holidays and passions? It is the principle of thematic Cruises, today proposed by the majority of companies.

Unless otherwise indicated, prices are quoted in Canadian dollars and do not include airfare, transfers, taxes or port charges.
Golf
Why don’t you go play golf on a sailboat? That’s What Club Med is offering. Here, no chief of the village; it is rather the captain of a sumptuous five-masted that takes you to the most beautiful routes of the Caribbean.
