Crystal Endeavor and Crystal Serenity rendezvous in the Bahamas

Crystal Endeavor was on its inaugural sailing from Miami, a two-day preview voyage for travel partners and media, while Crystal Serenity was on the last leg of a weeklong Bahamas cruise that departed PortMiami Oct. 18.

To the tune of 'What a Wonderful World'

With the company’s signature sail-away song, 'What a Wonderful World,' playing, the 20,200gt expedition yacht circled Crystal Serenity. Those aboard both vessels waved and the captains saluted each other with blasts of their ships’ horns.

Crystal Endeavor is to depart PortMiami today on a nine-day cruise en route to San Juan then spend the austral summer season in Antarctica on a series of 11- to 19-night voyages. Crystal Serenity continues its Bahamas cruises through Nov. 8.
