Sail with Your Faith.
Journey with Your Community.
Faith • Fellowship • Adventure
Imagine waking up to the open sea, sharing morning prayer with fellow believers, and exploring beautiful ports — all while deepening your faith and making lifelong friendships.
Our Vision
Travel That Feeds the Soul
At Dream Destinations by Heather & Joe, we believe travel is one of God's greatest gifts — a chance to experience the beauty of His creation, connect with others, and step away from the noise of everyday life.
Faith-based cruising brings that belief to life. You'll sail alongside fellow Christians, share meals and laughter, explore incredible destinations, and return home refreshed in body and spirit.
We welcome all Christians — Catholic, Protestant, Baptist, Methodist, non-denominational, and every tradition in between. What unites us is our faith and our love of adventure.
All Christians Welcome
Every denomination, one community

The Good Shepherd
A Special Gift
A Catholic Priest on Board
Heather's brother is a Catholic priest — and he loves to cruise. When his schedule allows, he joins our faith-based sailings to offer the sacraments at sea.
Father Daniel Christe
Heather's Brother
Father Daniel is a Catholic priest with a heart for community — and a love of the open sea. When his schedule allows, he joins our faith-based sailings to bring the sacraments to fellow travelers in a truly unique setting.
His presence on board means Catholic travelers can attend daily Mass, receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and enjoy the warmth of pastoral fellowship throughout the sailing. He's also just great company at dinner.
The Experience
What a Faith-Based Cruise Looks Like
Morning Devotional
Start each sea day with optional group devotional time — scripture, reflection, and prayer to set the tone for the day ahead.
Daily Mass (when Father joins)
Catholic travelers can attend daily Mass celebrated by Father Daniel in a reserved onboard space. A truly unique blessing at sea.
Group Shore Excursions
Explore ports together — from historic cathedrals and sacred sites to beautiful beaches and local culture. Faith and adventure, hand in hand.
Fellowship Meals
Share dinners, laughter, and conversation with fellow believers. Some of the deepest friendships are formed over a meal on the open sea.
Free Time to Explore
Faith-based doesn't mean every hour is scheduled. Enjoy the ship, the pool, the spa, and the ports at your own pace.
Closing Reflection
End the sailing with a group reflection — sharing what moved you, what you're taking home, and how the journey deepened your faith.
