“Positive Impact Travel, sometimes known as Regenerative Travel, is the idea that we should leave a destination better than we found it. It’s about moving beyond “sustainable” and actively contributing to the flourishing of local economies, cultures, and ecosystems.

When we choose experiences that give back, our travels become more than just a memory, they become a tool for meaningful change.” -

Kayla shares her experience in making her impact on our planet. Thank you Kayla for thinking of 💚

owner Sean, supported 700+ passengers & donated an estimated 300+ lbs of school supplies that his two sons delivered to the Beaches resort in Jamaica.

In early March of this year 500+ passengers came through again with another 200-300 lbs of school supplies that their whole team helped get off the ship and then his sons took it to Avila Beach Hotel in Curacao.

With the remainder they couldn’t get off the ship, they took the last box of supplies to Manchebo Beach Resort in Aruba where they gave out the supplies to special needs students who happily received the art supplies.

“We love having a positive impact on the destinations that bring us so much joy. I will definitely continue to promote the program to individual and group travel that we serve.” -Sean Harmon

While school was no longer in session, the team was still able to connect with secondary school students and teachers, providing supplies and sending students home with backpacks in hand.
