The Caribbean is a popular destination for the most trusted cruise operators, including Norwegian Cruise Lines, Disney Cruise Lines, Princess Cruises, and Carnival Cruise Lines. You’ll find great Eastern Caribbean cruise deals departing from the Northeast, West, and even the sunny ports in Florida. Make sure to choose a ship that fits your personality. For an adults-only retreat, try the Carnival Sensations cruise ship; and for family-friendly getaways, find packages on the Norwegian Gem.
While some cruises offer trips of seven days or longer, some of the best eastern Caribbean cruises are short and sweet. Search our database for five-day round trips from U. S. ports to Bermuda. Here, you’ll spend a couple days exploring the island’s hidden treasures, including the Bermuda Arts Center and Craft Market. The beautiful islands of the Bahamas are another quick cruise option with loads of shoreline fun, and the striking wildlife and tropical vegetation are must-sees!
For a daily adventure in areas of Jamaica or the Cayman Islands, there are Western Caribbean cruises. Explore the dive sites of Cozumel, or take an extended cruise to explore a variety of the region’s thousands of islands. No matter which side of the ocean you choose, you can’t go wrong with the year-round sunshine and beachside bliss of Caribbean vacations.

The Eastern Caribbean brings the somewhat mindless fun-in-the-sun experience many cruisers are looking for. Your getaway includes sandy beaches and opportunity to enjoy an array of watersports. Or sit and do nothing with a frosty rum drink in hand. Duty-free shopping galore – some of the port towns have an ambience akin to shopping malls – and casinos, including at the massive Atlantis resort in the Bahamas, offer diversions for those not focused on sun-seeking. Nature lovers will find the opportunity to explore both on land (especially in St. John) and in the sea (on snorkeling and diving excursions).
Cruises of a week or less sail mostly out of Florida (including Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Port Canaveral, near Orlando) and visit tried-and-true ports in the Bahamas and/or St. Thomas, St. Maarten, and sometimes San Juan, Puerto Rico. Longer itineraries sail from New York and Baltimore.
The cruises are year-round, and packed with families during school break periods.
Depending on which line you book, your itinerary may include a stop at a cruise line-owned Bahamas island, where the sugary sands, beach BBQs, bars and souvenir shops are reserved for cruise passengers only.
Cruise to the Eastern Caribbean if you.
Are seeking sun and tropical heat. Like to be in a popular place with a lot of other people.
Don't go if you.
Are seeking cultural stimulation. Want the beach to yourself.
