Caribbean cruises mean turquoise water, year-round sunshine and island hopping across Nassau, Cozumel, St. Maarten, Jamaica and the cruise lines' own private islands. Most sailings depart from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Port Canaveral or San Juan — all easy to reach from anywhere in the U.S.
Royal Caribbean, Carnival, MSC, Norwegian and Disney concentrate the departures, many aboard mega-ships with water parks and Broadway-style shows. The classic 7-night Eastern or Western Caribbean itinerary is the most popular, with 3–5 night getaways sailing from Florida every week.
