2023-2024 Caribbean Cruises
Our new 2023-2024 Caribbean season is our most exciting yet, because our next Edge® Series ship, Celebrity Ascent, is debuting in the islands. There’s no better place for a ship designed to connect you more closely than ever to the sea and all the sun-soaked places on the horizon. But that’s just the start, because with Celebrity Ascent, we’ll have eight stunning ships covering the Caribbean—including three revolutionary Edge Series ships—from the colorful reefs of Belize to the white sands of St. Lucia. Choose from a wide variety of sailings ranging from 4 to 11 nights for just the right amount of island time, departing from Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and Tampa. Plus, we’ve added the new port of Scarborough, Tobago to our already impressive lineup of tropical destinations, and we’ve brought back a popular double-overnight stay in New Orleans during Mardi Gras. There are so many amazing Caribbean sailings this season, you might want to book more than one.
Itineraries
Returning port, scarborough, tobago.
Scarborough is steeped in history going back to the 1600s, and the British, Dutch, and French all left their mark here. That history comes to life at Fort King George, built in 1781, with its well-preserved prison, canons, and other intriguing relics. Nature lover? The Nylon Pool is your ideal escape. It’s a naturally formed swimming area in the middle of the sea created by an offshore sandbar. Nearby Buccoo Reef is a great place to snorkel. Not to be outdone, Pigeon Point Beach and the Main Ridge Forest Reserve offer even more natural beauty to enjoy.

The Best Caribbean Cruises 2023—With Stops at Rugged Volcanic Islands, Tropical Forests, and Serene Beaches
Caribbean cruises have long been a favorite with travelers for their picture-postcard attributes. White sand beaches front turquoise waters. But these tropical itineraries have something for every type of traveler. Activities abound—perhaps it’s shopping on one island, hiking through nature reserves and snorkeling among coral reefs on another, or having a beach day on a cruise company’s private retreat. Many Caribbean itineraries skew toward tried-and-true standards, but a number of cruise lines will have a handful of unique sailings put together for particular tastes or the seasoned cruiser who has already tried them all.
Some of these sailings visit offbeat destinations like volcanic Montserrat, while others take a non-traditional southern track from Panama along the northern coast of South America. Others visit sleepier, less-frequented destinations like St. Croix, St. Barts, and Mayreau, in addition to stopping at banner spots like St. Lucia and Aruba for dramatic vistas and spectacular beaches.
Here are some of the best Caribbean cruises to book for 2023.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises
Itinerary: Sunny Beaches & Emerald Forests
Departure: March 11, 2023
Experience: This 10-night sailing from Miami embarks on Regent Seven Seas' newest ship, Seven Seas Splendor , for a leisurely sail through the Caribbean’s windward isles. Hike to waterfalls in Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic, explore Puerto Rico’s El Yunque National Forest, or relax on a sailboat excursion off minute St. Barts , which Splendor is right-sized to visit. Take an aerial tram through the rainforest canopy on St. Lucia or snorkel Champagne Reef on Dominica, watching bubbles and warmth rise from geothermal activity beneath the ocean floor. Excursions are included in the cruise fare with Regent—as are beverages, gratuities, transfers, specialty dining, Wi-Fi, and laundry service.
Itinerary: Panama, Colombia, & Caribbean Islands
Departure: March 9 and 17, 2023
Experience: Voyage from the gates of the Panama Canal to the French West Indies, with a wealth of diversity in between. Experience Afro-Caribbean heritage in Portobelo, Panama, and Indigenous Kuna fishing communities in the San Blas Islands. Next, it’s on to Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, and then the coral reefs of Bonaire for diving. The spices of Grenada and St. Lucia’s volcanic pitons round out the itinerary before the intimately appointed ship Le Bellot (with fewer than 92 staterooms and suites) anchors in the turquoise waters of Fort-de-France for a fond farewell.

Celebrity Cruises
Itinerary: Southern Caribbean
Departure: December 11, 2023
Experience: Offering a little of everything, this 11-night roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale includes calls at cobblestoned Cartagena, Colombia, the white-sand beaches of Aruba, and the famous colonial houses and swinging drawbridge of Curaçao. As an added bonus, Grand Cayman and Falmouth, Jamaica, also appear as ports to help break up the long journey south from Florida. The sailing takes place onboard the brand-new Celebrity Beyond , packed full of original art, Infinite Veranda staterooms—so-named for the floor-to-ceiling windows that open into a private balcony at the push of a button—and ocean-going gastronomy at Le Voyage, Chef Daniel Boulud’s first signature restaurant at sea.
Windstar Cruises
Itinerary: Windward Ways & Tobago Cays
Departure: January, February, November, and December 2023
Experience: Almost purpose-designed for cruisers who prefer their shore excursions to be on or in the water, this seven-day sailing onboard Windstar's Star Legend starts in the Dutch islands, offering up serene Aruba’s white-sand beaches and tranquil Bonaire’s 50 species of coral. “Isle of Spice” Grenada is next (nutmeg ice cream is a must-try), followed by spectacular vistas of the Grand Pitons on “seven times French; seven times British” St. Lucia. Mayreau is the smallest of the Grenadines—here cruisers can enter the water directly from Star Legend’s water-sports platform, then wind up the day with a private beach barbecue.
Valiant Lady will operate Caribbean cruises in spring and winter 2023.
Virgin Voyages
Itinerary: Eastern Caribbean Antilles
Departure: January, February, March, November, and December 2023
Experience: St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands is a less-trafficked port of call known as the “Garden of the Antilles” and Valiant Lady drops in during her Eastern Caribbean sailings, in addition to San Juan , Puerto Plata, and a day at Virgin’s lounge-y Beach Club at Bimini private island.

Experience: Ritz-Carlton has drawn on their vaunted properties to design everything from onboard dining to shore excursions on board the all-suite Evrima . Guests can visit Grenada’s Tower Estate to sample their famous blue tea, made from estate-grown butterfly peaflower, with cucumber sandwiches, cupcakes, and fresh fruit picked onsite. On Bequia, in the Grenadines, it might be a windjammer excursion to nearby Mustique for a seaside lunch, or a private car and driver arranged at one of the ports.
Silversea Cruises
Itinerary: 9 Day Bridgetown to San Juan
Departure: February 18, 2023
Experience: When not luxuriating onboard Silversea’s newest ship, the all-suite Silver Dawn , passengers might explore this itinerary’s most unique destination: Montserrat. Once a favored haunt of the jet-set, volcanic activity that earned it the nickname “The Pompeii of the Caribbean” has kept tourism development low-key, and visitors few, but cruisers on this itinerary will discover an Emerald Isle reminiscent of Ireland, and some of the Caribbean’s most beautiful, secluded beaches. Unspoiled Deshaies, on Guadeloupe, is another under-the-radar call for this spectacular ship boasting butler service in every suite and a guest-to-crew ratio of nearly one-to-one.
A suite onboard Norwegian Prima
Norwegian Cruise Line
Itinerary: Caribbean: Harvest Caye, Cozumel, & Roatan from Galeveston
Departure: December 15, 22, and 29, 2023
Experience: In December 2023, the new Norwegian Prima begins sailing the Riviera Maya from Galveston, also including port calls at resort-like Harvest Caye in Belize , where guests can rent private cabanas, and Roatan, in Honduras’s Bay Islands, home to a large Gumbalimba eco-preserve and animal sanctuary. Onboard, Norwegian has enhanced The Haven, the VIP suite area on this ship, with some the largest suite accommodations in the fleet, and all public areas in the suite enclave now have ocean views.
Princess Cruises
Itinerary: 5 Day Caribbean Getaway with Grand Turk
Departure: October 31, 2023
Experience: Not all Caribbean cruises need to be a week or two in duration. Princess Cruises offers a Halloween weekend getaway onboard Caribbean Princess that’s just five nights in duration, with two unbeatable ports—Grand Turk, and Princess Cays, the line’s private island in the Bahamas. A highlight of this seasonal sailing can be sitting in the ship’s piazza, watching festive passengers promenade their inventive costumes for spooky onboard revelry—a Princess tradition dating back to the days of the original “Love Boat” series.
Booking tips for Caribbean cruises
What are the best months to take a caribbean cruise.
Although some cruise lines operate in the Caribbean year-round, the widest selection of sailing dates and itineraries can be found between November and March.
What part of the Caribbean is best for a cruise?
The best Caribbean cruise is a matter of personal taste. Many cruises focus on a region, like the Southern, Eastern, or Western Caribbean, and itineraries, regardless of destination, often feature stops at cruise line operated private islands in the Bahamas.
What are the cheapest months to cruise in the Caribbean?
Generally, the beginning and end of the November-to-March season can be affordable—any time when North American schools are widely in session are also good times to cruise for lower fares.
Do you need a passport to go to on a Caribbean cruise?
Check with the cruise line before booking. U.S. citizens traveling on cruises calling at most Caribbean countries can do so with both an enhanced state ID and an original birth certificate in lieu of a passport, but a passport is by far the easiest form of identification (and most strongly recommended by both the U.S. State Department and most cruise lines) for U.S. citizens outside the country. It’s also important to note that documentation requirements can change, and passengers are ultimately responsible for having the required documents at embarkation or they may be denied boarding.

5 Day Caribbean Cruises
An unforgettable vacation under the sun
Set sail on a blissful vacation on one of our 5-day Caribbean cruises. These stunning itineraries visit some of the region’s most coveted destinations, including The Bahamas, Mexico, and Key West.
Our 5-day cruises combine visits to beautiful beaches in ports like Nassau, Bimini, and Cozumel with two serene days at sea, where you’ll have the chance to revel in all of the spectacular venues and amenities available on our award-winning ships. Spend your days exploring tropical islands and festive beach towns. Later, unwind onboard and enjoy world-class dining, unlimited entertainment options, and impeccable service.
Itineraries
Featured ports of call, nassau, bahamas.
Experience a tropical paradise in Nassau, where white-sand beaches and turquoise waters are found at every turn. Spend your day exploring the city’s bright colors, mouthwatering cuisine, and heavenly beaches. Snorkel over coral reefs, surrounded by tropical fish and maybe even sea turtles. Shop for gifts in the famous Straw Market, where artisans sell handmade goods. For an indulgent day, head to the Atlantis Resort, a luxurious complex with glorious beaches and thrilling water slides.
Bimini, Bahamas
Sleepy Bimini is surrounded by pristine beaches, dazzling reefs, and thrilling wrecks. Snorkel around the semi-submerged Sapona shipwreck, teeming with tropical fish. Paddle a kayak through sparkling turquoise water, or stand in the warm shallows as friendly stingrays mill around. If you’ve developed a taste for conch, a Bahamian specialty, join a conch cruise to see how locals free dive for the shells. Once you’re back on the island, try delicious conch fritters for yourself.
Cozumel, Mexico
You’ll find it easy to relax on the island of Cozumel, an untouched slice of paradise just off the coast of Mexico. Lounge under the sun on pristine beaches with powder-soft sand like Playa Palancar and El Cielo, which fittingly translates to “heaven.” Dive into crystal-clear waters and spot starfish, sea turtles, and dazzling coral reefs. Or embark on an unforgettable day trip to the nearby ruins of Tulum or Chichen Itza, where you’ll walk on the former grounds of an ancient Mayan citadel.
Key West, Florida
Explore quirky Key West, a tiny Florida town that packs a large punch. Key West is known for its laid-back attitude, which is on full display in famous Duval Street, where you can dip in and out of lively restaurants and bars and try a slice of deliciously tangy Key lime pie. Key West is also the former home of Ernest Hemingway, whose Spanish colonial house is now a museum dedicated to the celebrated American writer.

Best Caribbean Cruise Deals
When you think of a cruise, your mind likely jumps to a scene with umbrella drinks, white sand beaches and crystal clear waters. Caribbean cruises fit this description, and they can be some of the most financially accessible cruise options for travelers originating in the U.S.
Our Best Cruise Lines in the Caribbean ranking includes lines like Disney Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean International, Carnival Cruise Line and Celebrity Cruises. These cruise lines have abundant and diverse Caribbean itinerary offerings and score well among past travelers. Popular Caribbean cruise ports include Grand Cayman; St. Thomas; St. Maarten; San Juan, Puerto Rico; and more. On a Caribbean cruise, you can expect to embark on shore excursions like snorkeling, catamaran outings and sightseeing tours around the islands.
While Disney Cruise Line is considered a more expensive option, you can often find deals on Carnival Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean. In the busy season (typically December through mid-April), rates on these two lines tend to range from $100 to $150 per person, per night. Because of hurricane season, late summer through fall typically brings the cheapest prices. Fares on affordable cruise lines like Royal Caribbean can dip as low as $50 per person, per night for an inside stateroom.

Always, always pack an international travel adapter plug and more than one! You could find one while overseas, but they can be quite expensive and may not be compatible with your devices. Also, never travel without a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated.

It’s easy peasy lemon squeezy – you can book in-store, online, via the phone, homing pigeon, or you can start the process by enquiring online and one of our Travel Experts will get back to you ASAP! We’re joking about the pigeon by the way, they are nearly impossible to track down these days.

ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISE 2024-26 GUIDE
When it comes to planning the ultimate getaway, there are so many reasons why cruise vacations rank among the most popular travel options. First of all, they’re completely stress-free. On a cruise vacation, all the planning is taken care of by the cruise line — from the destinations you sail to and the shore excursions available at each port, to a full range of entertainment and activities happening onboard every day. If you’re not a planner, or if the only things you’re looking to focus on during your getaway is savoring great food, relaxing, and soaking up the sights, cruise vacations are the way to go. A cruise vacation is also a great option if you’re traveling with the whole family, especially when you opt for a Royal Caribbean cruise. All of the ships in this cruise line’s fleet offer family-friendly experiences for guests of all ages. Even little ones will find plenty of ways to play with spaces and activities designed for tots to tweens. One of the top reasons savvy travelers love cruising, though, is because of the incredible value it offers. With Royal Caribbean, your cruise fare includes access to most of the ship’s attractions, select dining venues and all of the entertainment onboard. If you want to make your experience even more all-inclusive, you can opt for beverage and specialty dining packages that cover drinks and dinner at some of the most exclusive restaurants in the fleet. On top of all that, the cruise line presents frequent limited-time offers and seasonal sales, making it easy to score big savings when booking your vacation.
