Caribbean cruises sail year-round. December to April is the driest and most popular stretch. June to November is hurricane season, which often brings lower fares.
The main departure ports are Miami, Port Canaveral and Fort Lauderdale in Florida, and Galveston in Texas.
Many Caribbean itineraries take less than a week, which makes them easy to fit into a vacation. Longer sailings reach the Southern Caribbean.
Rules depend on your itinerary, including whether it’s a round trip from a US port and which islands you visit. Ask your advisor for your sailing’s requirements; a valid passport is always the simplest option.
Several do. Royal Caribbean has Perfect Day at CocoCay, Carnival has Celebration Key on Grand Bahama, Norwegian has Great Stirrup Cay and Harvest Caye in Belize, MSC has Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve and Disney has Castaway Cay. Many short sailings from Florida stop at one. See our Bahamas cruises.
The Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. Cruise lines track storms closely and change itineraries when needed, so a port may be swapped or a day added at sea. Your advisor can explain each line’s policy and whether travel insurance makes sense for your dates.
