The deck rocks with a slow, regular rhythm as the cruise slips between towering limestone towers and open green water. Morning fog lifts off the bay and reveals cliffs freckled with shrubs; kayaks dot the surface like dark paint strokes. Onboard, teak and linen give way to the salt air and a steady program of exploration—sunset cocktails, a hands-on cooking lesson, a dawn Tai Chi class on the sundeck.
