Caribbean Travel

The Telegraph The Caribbean is a cruising paradise. With 7,000 islands, gentle trade winds and a year-round warm climate, the region is irresistible to cruise lines and has become the most competitive cruising destination in the world. Major companies such as Royal Caribbean International, Carnival Cruise Lines, Norwegian Cruise Line and Princess Cruises dominate these waters, but the beauty of the Caribbean means there is also room for smaller lines, as they can call at islands that larger ships cannot reach.

Philadelphia Daily News "Do your research, because peak season can vary depending on the destination. For example, it makes sense to visit the Caribbean during the first week of December since rates typically increase Dec. 15."..................An ocean cruise seems like an extravagant vacation, but there are deals to be found. Sail from a nearby port like Baltimore, where a five-night cruise to Bermuda aboard Royal Caribbean Cruise Line (October departure) starts at just $599. Where else can you go to enjoy five-star accommodations, meals and entertainment for $60 a night?
