Cruise
a different kind of cruise for
a different kind of traveler who
not only wants to see the world,
but do their part to make it a
better place.
Making chocolate at Chocal
On Ground Impact Activities
In Puerto Plata, Fathom™ has
organized opportunities for its
passengers to do community service
work. They’ve done all of the
legwork and made it easy for visitors
to work alongside locals, make
friends and make an impact. Instead
of lying on the beach, vacation days
can be spent making water filters,
working with local school children or
helping a group of entrepreneurial
women using artisanal chocolate to
create jobs in their community.
Chocal chocolate
Fathom™ itineraries leave a
comfortable amount of room to
breathe and explore. Time is set aside
in the journey to enjoy local cuisine,
learn about the culture of the
Dominican Republic or simply relax.
Sailings to Amber Cove begin in April
2016. Cruises to Cuba are scheduled
to begin a month later in May.
It appears Fathom has found a way
to make service work easily
accessible, safe and enjoyable for
travelers of all ages. It might also
change the way some people define
a good vacation.
Dana Rebmann was part of an
international group of media invited
to see Amber Cove and Puerto Plata,
but as always her thoughts and
opinions are her own.
