Your sea legs will develop sooner than you think, the ship rocks and rolls with the waves - but fear not, with the wind as your only propulsion (apart from entering and leaving harbours). The ship is fully in keeping with its nautical heritage and feels both authentic and opulent, brass fixtures and light coloured walls and furnishings, dressed in dark wood. A Royal Clipper cruise is far more intimate than some of the larger cruise ships, at 439 feet and with room for only 227 passengers.

Or to the piano bar for a more laid back evening, head to the tropical bar with a varied selection from crab racing to a steel band, for entertainment during your holiday. Tropical bar and spa facilities, a piano bar, a three deck atrium with dining room, on-board you will also find three pools on the main deck. They each come with a spacious bathroom and a TV and DVD player for any night owls on board. The cabins are full of storage space and have some of the most comfortable beds on the seven seas.

Allowing any nautical enthusiasts to converse with the captain and gain new insight into the workings of this beautiful ship, the Royal Clipper also has an open bridge policy. And panoramic views of the Caribbean, you can climb the mast (safety harnesses provided) to a crows nest and be privy to a bird's-eye-view of the ship, if having two feet on the deck and beautiful views isn't quite enough, however. So sit back and relax with a cooling drink while you watch the waves rush past, there are ample chairs on the sun deck. 940 square feet there is plenty of deck space and you'll rarely feel crowded, at 18.

And these can be booked during your voyage, excursions are also available on each island you visit at an extra charge. Though diving equipment requires an extra fee, sunfish and zodiacs is free of charge, snorkelling equipment and loan of the kayaks. Allowing you to partake in a spot of water sports, the Royal Clipper has a marina platform that lowers from the stern, for those of you who like being both on and in the water.

Caribbean holidays are an unforgettable treasure trove of adventure for any visitor, in fact. Or you fancy the chance of bumping into your very own Captain Jack Sparrow (or Elizabeth Swann) then a Royal Clipper cruise may well prove the perfect choice for your holiday break, if taking to the waters of the Caribbean makes you feel at home, so.
