Terre-de-Haut

Terre-de-Haut offers a cruise-call with a distinctive, intimate island rhythm that sets it apart from bustling port towns: a sheltered, walkable harbor where guests step straight into Guadeloupe’s warm culture and turquoise seas. Signature experiences center on the climb to Fort Napoleon for sweeping views over Bourg and the surrounding islets, a snorkel excursion in crystal-clear waters around Ilet a Cabri, and a relaxed stroll along whitewashed streets lined with market stalls, cafes, and craftsmen wares. The destination invites day trips to the Îles des Saintes archipelago—gentle island-hopping, pristine beaches, and calm coves that feel like a well-kept secret—making it ideal for families and couples alike. Fleet features at the port emphasize compatibility with mid-sized ships and agile tenders, shallow-draft moorings, and streamlined turnarounds that minimize waiting time while preserving the island’s pristine ambiance. Onboard services reflect Guadeloupean hospitality with Creole-inspired cuisine highlighting fresh seafood and tropical fruits, rum tastings and live music that celebrate local culture, spa and wellness options to unwind after a sun-filled day, and dedicated shore-excursion desks that help guests tailor offline adventures, photography sessions, and small-group experiences. In short, Terre-de-Haut combines intimate scale, captivating landscapes, and authentic service to deliver a uniquely memorable Caribbean port of call.
