Caribbean CONUNDRUM
By Amity Moore
While the Caribbean is known for its stunning beaches, clear turquoise waters and warm
tropical breezes, each region offers unique possibilities. Which one will you choose?
A
cruise to the Caribbean seems like an easy
decision - sun-kissed sands, warm waves and
tropical cocktails served beneath swaying palm
trees present a perfect escape. That is until you begin
wading through the itineraries and realize your decision
doesn't end with " I want to sail the Caribbean. " In fact,
unless you have about 14 days or more to sail the entire
region, that statement is only the beginning. From there,
the choices line up like passengers at the ship's buffet.
How do you decide between Eastern Caribbean, Western
Caribbean and Southern Caribbean? Let's dive a little
deeper into each area.
EASTERN CARIBBEAN
Setting Sail: The Eastern Caribbean encompasses
the U.S. Virgin Islands, the British Virgin Islands, Puerto
Rico and St. Maarten/St. Martin. Most cruise lines include
a stop in the Bahamas or Turks & Caicos, even though
these islands are not officially part of the region. Many
cruise lines include their private islands in their eastern
itineraries: Royal Caribbean has Perfect Day at Cococay,
Princess has Princess Cays, Holland America stops at Half
Moon Cay and the list goes on.
Up the Gangway: Popular cruise lines, such as Royal
Caribbean, Carnival, Princess, Celebrity and more sail
this region. You'll often catch your ship in Fort Lauderdale,
Port Canaveral (Orlando) or Miami. Some cruise lines have
embarkation ports in Cape Liberty, NJ; Baltimore, MD;
Charleston, SC and smaller Florida ports, such as Tampa.
Port Talley: Don't miss the Straw Market in Nassau.
Snorkeling is best on the small island of St. John in the US
Virgin Islands. You can take a ferry from your port call at
Charlotte Amalie. You'll get two cultures for one stop in St.
Maarten (Dutch) and St. Martin (French).
Set a Distinctive Course: Gorgeous, white-sand
beaches and hard-to-beat duty-free shopping define this
section of the Caribbean. Each island bears the stamp
of the European nation that settled there. Enjoy these
European touches, set against a backdrop of rum-based
cocktails, lush landscapes and tucked-away coves that
pirates once coveted.
