The Cost Fortuna |
Cruising Italian Style...
Costa offers a way of cruising unlike any other. Festive. Elegant. Delightfully
different in service, cuisine and ambiance. We call it Cruising Italian
StyleSM . Reflecting our rich Italian heritage, no detail has been overlooked
in bringing you the style and generous hospitality of Italy. From the
first Buon Viaggio Celebration to the last Bacchanal Parade, the stage is
set for a week of unforgettable enjoyment. Have a ball behind Venetian masks
and party like the Romans. Let your hair down in the atmosphere of Festa
Italiana, while taking in Italy's favorite pastimes. A Costa Caribbean cruise
is more than a cruise it is an experience. Remember, cruising is good. But,
Cruising Italian Style is Magnifico!
Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Fort Lauderdale, as its name suggests, was originally a fort built to protect
the vital railway and the coastal area from pirates. The city of Fort Lauderdale,
in Broward County, is a modern, wealthy metropolis, much of whose fortune
rests on tourism. One of the focal points is the Riverwalk, a panoramic
promenade along the bay, lined with boutiques, restaurants, shops and museums.
St. Thomas, USVI
This is one of the most beautiful regions in the world. Charlotte Amalie
is the capital and major passenger port of the island of St. Thomas, which
together with St. Croix and St. John form the principal islands of the United
States Virgin Islands. Formerly a private hideout, St. Thomas is now a haven
for duty-free shopping. Discover small boutiques, historic buildings and
scenic waterfront views. St. John offers 12,000 acres of National Park land,
20 miles of biking trails, beautiful white sand beaches and some of the
best snorkeling the Caribbean has to offer.
San Juan, Puerto Rico
American-owned Puerto Rico is the largest and most populated of an archipelago
of several islands. It is a rectangular shaped island with fertile coasts
and a rugged, fairly mountainous interior with lush rainforest. Christopher
Columbus first landed on Puerto Rico in 1493 with Ponce de Leon, who who
thought the island might be the location of the Fountain of Youth. The status
of the island was consolidated by legal statute in 1917, when the population
was given US citizenship, but not the US vote.
Turks and Caicos
The beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands are situated 575 miles southeast
of Miami. Take the time to explore Cockburn town's wonderful selection of
historical buildings including many Burmudian and Colonial style buildings
and ruins. That's just the beginning of all the things to see and do in
Grand Turk. Turks and Caicos Islands has the third largest coral reef system
and the best tropical beaches in the world, making it a premier beach, diving
and snorkelling destination.
