2023-2024 Caribbean Cruises

Our new 2023-2024 Caribbean season is our most exciting yet, because our next Edge® Series ship, Celebrity Ascent, is debuting in the islands. There’s no better place for a ship designed to connect you more closely than ever to the sea and all the sun-soaked places on the horizon. But that’s just the start, because with Celebrity Ascent, we’ll have eight stunning ships covering the Caribbean—including three revolutionary Edge Series ships—from the colorful reefs of Belize to the white sands of St. Lucia. Choose from a wide variety of sailings ranging from 4 to 11 nights for just the right amount of island time, departing from Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and Tampa. Plus, we’ve added the new port of Scarborough, Tobago to our already impressive lineup of tropical destinations, and we’ve brought back a popular double-overnight stay in New Orleans during Mardi Gras. There are so many amazing Caribbean sailings this season, you might want to book more than one.

Itineraries

Returning port, scarborough, tobago.

Scarborough is steeped in history going back to the 1600s, and the British, Dutch, and French all left their mark here. That history comes to life at Fort King George, built in 1781, with its well-preserved prison, canons, and other intriguing relics. Nature lover? The Nylon Pool is your ideal escape. It’s a naturally formed swimming area in the middle of the sea created by an offshore sandbar. Nearby Buccoo Reef is a great place to snorkel. Not to be outdone, Pigeon Point Beach and the Main Ridge Forest Reserve offer even more natural beauty to enjoy.

The Best Caribbean Cruises 2023—With Stops at Rugged Volcanic Islands, Tropical Forests, and Serene Beaches

Caribbean cruises have long been a favorite with travelers for their picture-postcard attributes. White sand beaches front turquoise waters. But these tropical itineraries have something for every type of traveler. Activities abound—perhaps it’s shopping on one island, hiking through nature reserves and snorkeling among coral reefs on another, or having a beach day on a cruise company’s private retreat. Many Caribbean itineraries skew toward tried-and-true standards, but a number of cruise lines will have a handful of unique sailings put together for particular tastes or the seasoned cruiser who has already tried them all.

Some of these sailings visit offbeat destinations like volcanic Montserrat, while others take a non-traditional southern track from Panama along the northern coast of South America. Others visit sleepier, less-frequented destinations like St. Croix, St. Barts, and Mayreau, in addition to stopping at banner spots like St. Lucia and Aruba for dramatic vistas and spectacular beaches.

Here are some of the best Caribbean cruises to book for 2023.

Seven Seas Splendor ventures to some of the Caribbean's most iconic isles.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises

Itinerary: Sunny Beaches & Emerald Forests

Departure: March 11, 2023

Experience: This 10-night sailing from Miami embarks on Regent Seven Seas' newest ship, Seven Seas Splendor , for a leisurely sail through the Caribbean’s windward isles. Hike to waterfalls in Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic, explore Puerto Rico’s El Yunque National Forest, or relax on a sailboat excursion off minute St. Barts , which Splendor is right-sized to visit. Take an aerial tram through the rainforest canopy on St. Lucia or snorkel Champagne Reef on Dominica, watching bubbles and warmth rise from geothermal activity beneath the ocean floor. Excursions are included in the cruise fare with Regent—as are beverages, gratuities, transfers, specialty dining, Wi-Fi, and laundry service.

Itinerary: Panama, Colombia, & Caribbean Islands

Departure: March 9 and 17, 2023

Experience: Voyage from the gates of the Panama Canal to the French West Indies, with a wealth of diversity in between. Experience Afro-Caribbean heritage in Portobelo, Panama, and Indigenous Kuna fishing communities in the San Blas Islands. Next, it’s on to Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, and then the coral reefs of Bonaire for diving. The spices of Grenada and St. Lucia’s volcanic pitons round out the itinerary before the intimately appointed ship Le Bellot (with fewer than 92 staterooms and suites) anchors in the turquoise waters of Fort-de-France for a fond farewell.

Celebrity Beyond 's Luminae Restaurant

Celebrity Cruises

Itinerary: Southern Caribbean

Departure: December 11, 2023

Experience: Offering a little of everything, this 11-night roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale includes calls at cobblestoned Cartagena, Colombia, the white-sand beaches of Aruba, and the famous colonial houses and swinging drawbridge of Curaçao. As an added bonus, Grand Cayman and Falmouth, Jamaica, also appear as ports to help break up the long journey south from Florida. The sailing takes place onboard the brand-new Celebrity Beyond , packed full of original art, Infinite Veranda staterooms—so-named for the floor-to-ceiling windows that open into a private balcony at the push of a button—and ocean-going gastronomy at Le Voyage, Chef Daniel Boulud’s first signature restaurant at sea.

Windstar Cruises

Itinerary: Windward Ways & Tobago Cays

Departure: January, February, November, and December 2023

Experience: Almost purpose-designed for cruisers who prefer their shore excursions to be on or in the water, this seven-day sailing onboard Windstar's Star Legend starts in the Dutch islands, offering up serene Aruba’s white-sand beaches and tranquil Bonaire’s 50 species of coral. “Isle of Spice” Grenada is next (nutmeg ice cream is a must-try), followed by spectacular vistas of the Grand Pitons on “seven times French; seven times British” St. Lucia. Mayreau is the smallest of the Grenadines—here cruisers can enter the water directly from Star Legend’s water-sports platform, then wind up the day with a private beach barbecue.

Valiant Lady will operate Caribbean cruises in spring and winter 2023.

Virgin Voyages

Itinerary: Eastern Caribbean Antilles

26 Best Fall Boots for Travelers

Departure: January, February, March, November, and December 2023

Experience: St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands is a less-trafficked port of call known as the “Garden of the Antilles” and Valiant Lady drops in during her Eastern Caribbean sailings, in addition to San Juan , Puerto Plata, and a day at Virgin’s lounge-y Beach Club at Bimini private island. Onboard, Wi-Fi and “essential” non-alcoholic drinks and gratuities are included on the adults-only ship, which touts over 20 eateries and a number of inventive ways to find a glass of champagne.

Holland America Line

Itinerary: 11 Day Panama Canal Sunfarer

Departure: March 14, 2023

Experience: Part Caribbean surf, part jungle excursion, this 11-day roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale onboard Eurodam calls first at Aruba and Curaçao for a taste of Holland America Line’s namesake Dutch culture before skirting the coast of South America for several days of scenic cruising the Panama Canal and Gatun Lake, taking in the maximum biodiversity (over 500 species of birds) of the Canal Zone, juxtaposed with the engineering wonders of the lock system.

A Signature Suite on board Evrima

Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection

Itinerary: Bridgetown Roundtrip 7 Nights

Departure: March 19 and November 19, 2023

Experience: Ritz-Carlton has drawn on their vaunted properties to design everything from onboard dining to shore excursions on board the all-suite Evrima . Guests can visit Grenada’s Tower Estate to sample their famous blue tea, made from estate-grown butterfly peaflower, with cucumber sandwiches, cupcakes, and fresh fruit picked onsite. On Bequia, in the Grenadines, it might be a windjammer excursion to nearby Mustique for a seaside lunch, or a private car and driver arranged at one of the ports.

Silversea Cruises

Itinerary: 9 Day Bridgetown to San Juan

Departure: February 18, 2023

Experience: When not luxuriating onboard Silversea’s newest ship, the all-suite Silver Dawn , passengers might explore this itinerary’s most unique destination: Montserrat. Once a favored haunt of the jet-set, volcanic activity that earned it the nickname “The Pompeii of the Caribbean” has kept tourism development low-key, and visitors few, but cruisers on this itinerary will discover an Emerald Isle reminiscent of Ireland, and some of the Caribbean’s most beautiful, secluded beaches. Unspoiled Deshaies, on Guadeloupe, is another under-the-radar call for this spectacular ship boasting butler service in every suite and a guest-to-crew ratio of nearly one-to-one.

A suite onboard Norwegian Prima

Norwegian Cruise Line

Itinerary: Caribbean: Harvest Caye, Cozumel, & Roatan from Galeveston

Departure: December 15, 22, and 29, 2023

Experience: In December 2023, the new Norwegian Prima begins sailing the Riviera Maya from Galveston, also including port calls at resort-like Harvest Caye in Belize , where guests can rent private cabanas, and Roatan, in Honduras’s Bay Islands, home to a large Gumbalimba eco-preserve and animal sanctuary. Onboard, Norwegian has enhanced The Haven, the VIP suite area on this ship, with some the largest suite accommodations in the fleet, and all public areas in the suite enclave now have ocean views.

Princess Cruises

Itinerary: 5 Day Caribbean Getaway with Grand Turk

Departure: October 31, 2023

Experience: Not all Caribbean cruises need to be a week or two in duration. Princess Cruises offers a Halloween weekend getaway onboard Caribbean Princess that’s just five nights in duration, with two unbeatable ports—Grand Turk, and Princess Cays, the line’s private island in the Bahamas. A highlight of this seasonal sailing can be sitting in the ship’s piazza, watching festive passengers promenade their inventive costumes for spooky onboard revelry—a Princess tradition dating back to the days of the original “Love Boat” series.

Booking tips for Caribbean cruises

What are the best months to take a caribbean cruise.

Although some cruise lines operate in the Caribbean year-round, the widest selection of sailing dates and itineraries can be found between November and March.

What part of the Caribbean is best for a cruise?

The best Caribbean cruise is a matter of personal taste. Many cruises focus on a region, like the Southern, Eastern, or Western Caribbean, and itineraries, regardless of destination, often feature stops at cruise line operated private islands in the Bahamas.

What are the cheapest months to cruise in the Caribbean?

Generally, the beginning and end of the November-to-March season can be affordable—any time when North American schools are widely in session are also good times to cruise for lower fares.

Do you need a passport to go to on a Caribbean cruise?

Check with the cruise line before booking. U.S. citizens traveling on cruises calling at most Caribbean countries can do so with both an enhanced state ID and an original birth certificate in lieu of a passport, but a passport is by far the easiest form of identification (and most strongly recommended by both the U.S. State Department and most cruise lines) for U.S. citizens outside the country. It’s also important to note that documentation requirements can change, and passengers are ultimately responsible for having the required documents at embarkation or they may be denied boarding.

Eastern Caribbean Cruises

Beaches, azure waters — what comes to mind when you think of cruises to the caribbean.

Best Multi-generational

Cruise Line

2022 Reader’s Choice Award, Porthole Magazine

Picture the Caribbean. Soft sandy beaches, warm winds blowing through palm trees and crystal-clear waters stretching as far as the eye can see. That's the Eastern Caribbean cruise experience. But that's just the start. After a morning swimming, snorkeling or sailing, an entire world awaits on land. Vibrant cultures, rich histories and oh-so-many spots to shop. Dive in; the Caribbean is waiting.

What will you do on an Eastern Caribbean cruise?

Island time. Beach time. You time. There's no one correct way to pass the days in the Eastern Caribbean.

Island shore excursions

Experience the best an Eastern Caribbean Cruise has to offer with award-winning shore excursions that immerse you in thrilling experiences, unique culinary delights and peaceful rejuvenation. Sail on a tall ship at sunset, snorkel with vibrant sea life through teeming reefs, and explore old shipwrecks near the picturesque coastlines.

Late night departures

The Caribbean has a different feeling at night. Revel in its warm evenings and enticing music with our More Ashore program. Later stays in ports such as St. Thomas and Barbados let you soak up the full Caribbean experience, like a fresh-caught seafood dinner on the beach or street fair full of local crafts and flavors. With More Ashore, you get more time to enjoy the vibrant island nightlife.

Breathtaking Beaches

The Eastern Caribbean is renowned for its pristine, sun-kissed beaches, offering crystal-clear waters and powdery white sands that stretch as far as the eye can see. From the famous Maho Beach in St. Maarten, where planes soar overhead, to the secluded shores of Trunk Bay in the Virgin Islands, each beach promises a unique and unforgettable experience. Whether you’re looking to relax under swaying palm trees, snorkel among vibrant coral reefs, or indulge in exciting water sports, the Eastern Caribbean’s beaches are a paradise for every traveler.

Local Culture

Immerse yourself in the rich and diverse cultures of the Eastern Caribbean, where each island offers a unique tapestry of traditions, music and cuisine. Explore the lively markets of San Juan, Puerto Rico, where you can savor local delicacies like mofongo and listen to the rhythmic beats of salsa and reggaeton. Discover the historic charm of Charlotte Amalie in St. Thomas, with its cobblestone streets and centuries-old architecture. Engaging with the warm and welcoming locals, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation of the islands' vibrant heritage and way of life.

Old-world Charm

The Eastern Caribbean is a treasure trove of old-world charm, blending colonial history with enchanting landscapes. Wander through the narrow streets of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico, where pastel-colored buildings and imposing fortresses tell tales of the past. Visit the historic sites of Philipsburg in St. Maarten, or explore the serene beauty of Princess Cays with its quaint beachfront and rustic allure. Each island’s rich history and preserved heritage offer a captivating glimpse into a bygone era, making your cruise an enriching journey through time.

Featured Eastern Caribbean Cruise Ports

Get an overview of some of the Eastern Caribbean’s top islands (plus our main departure port).

  • Princess Cays®
  • St. Maarten
  • Ft. Lauderdale

With a half mile of white-sand shoreline and 40 acres of relaxation, shopping and picturesque beaches, Princess Cays® is one of the best private Eastern Caribbean cruise line ports in the world. Relax in a private cabana, dive into the dozens of available water activities, explore the gorgeous back roads of Eleuthera in a dune buggy, or indulge in shopping from local craftspeople.

St. Kitts and the neighboring island of Nevis were once considered the crown jewels of the Caribbean, and it's easy to see why. Green hillsides, fields of sugarcane and dramatic volcanoes rise into the strikingly blue sky. With its beautifully restored colonial buildings, imposing Brimstone Hill Fortress and museum of Alexander Hamilton at his birthplace, history lovers will have plenty to explore after relaxing on the beautiful beaches on a cruise to St. Kitts.

Two islands in one, St. Maarten is split between France and the Netherlands, but comes together as one memorable experience. From the Dutch-inspired port of Philipsburg with its historic colonial architecture and warm beaches, to the French hub of Marigot full of designer boutiques and bistros, a cruise to St. Maarten has something for you.

Cruise to St. Thomas, an American paradise that contains everything alluring about the Caribbean: sparkling sands, pirate history, coral reef snorkeling and shipwreck dives. Plus, take relaxation to a whole other level, with all the sun, rum punch and island music you could ever dream of.

The "Venice of America" has been the premier destination among spring breakers for almost six decades, but don't let that fool you into thinking the city is one big party. From the Everglades, a UNESCO World Heritage Site home to an amazingly rich biosphere, to seven miles of white-sand beaches, Ft. Lauderdale is a beautifully diverse city offering a diverse array of attractions.

Top-Rated Eastern Caribbean Beaches

10-DAY CARIBBEAN CRUISES

Because island time deserves more time

Tabs View Cruises

  • View Cruises

There’s no better place to relax than in the Caribbean islands. With a 10-day cruise to the Caribbean, you’ll have more time to sink into island time. More beach time. More snorkel time. More listening to music time. More local dining time.

On our 10-day Caribbean cruises, you’ll visit gorgeous islands like Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao while you immerse yourself in comfort while on board. Embark on one of our award-winning cruise ships and experience elevated dining options, spa services, modern staterooms, and exciting entertainment options. Unwind on a long, leisurely vacation through the tropical islands of the Caribbean with Celebrity Cruises.

Itineraries

Departure ports for 10-day caribbean cruises, fort lauderdale.

Your starting point for a 10-day Caribbean cruise is Port Everglades, one of the largest cruise ports in the world. Arrive a few days early or stay a little later and enjoy world-class dining and shopping on Las Olas Boulevard. Take an exhilarating airboat ride through the one-of-a-kind Everglades and see alligators, herons, and soaring eagles. Bring the family to the Museum of Science and Discovery, and lounge on Fort Lauderdale’s expansive white-sand beaches.

One of the most diverse and vibrant cities in the world is home to Port Miami, where you’ll begin your 10-day Caribbean cruise. Allow a few days before or after to explore all that the Magic City has to offer. Relax on the sands of South Beach, lined with iconic, pastel-colored Art Deco buildings and hotels. Visit Calle Ocho for authentic Cuban cuisine, streetside domino games, and a bit of salsa dancing. Marvel at the impressive street art in Wynwood. Stroll around Vizcaya Museum and Gardens on Biscayne Bay, built in the early 20th century with an ornate villa, formal gardens, and a spectacular swimming pool grotto.

Your 10-day Caribbean cruise departs from Port Tampa Bay on the Gulf Coast.  Visit historic Ybor City, where you can enjoy Cuban sandwiches, microbrewed beer, and cigars. Art lovers can head to the nearby Dali museum in St. Pete, where the largest collection of the surrealist’s works outside of Europe resides. Tampa has several magnificent stadiums where sports fans can take in a baseball, hockey, or football game.

Featured Destinations

Abc islands.

From white-sand beaches and azure waters to spectacular diving and exotic animal encounters, the islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao boast something for every sun-lover. Unwind on Aruba’s Eagle Beach, with its soft white sand, crystal clear water, and the supremely photogenic divi tree. Explore the diver’s paradise of Bonaire, which features 85 incredible sites. Experience Curaçao, a tropical version of Amsterdam, with colorful buildings and the floating Queen Emma Bridge which offers a fantastic view of the historic harbor.

One of the Caribbean’s brightest gems, the dual-island country of St. Kitts and Nevis has it all. Here, you’ll find an impressive history, exotic rainforests, soft sand beaches, and a dormant volcano. Explore Nevis, the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton, on a day trip across The Narrows. Skirt the coast of St. Kitts in a catamaran, then cool off with a snorkel adventure in the ocean. Hike through the rainforest to the volcano, then hike up for sensational views of the rocky coastline.

Antigua’s charms include picturesque colonial buildings, coffee plantations, stunning beaches, and three volcanoes. Immerse yourself in island life and culture with a tour of local estates, artists’ homes, and farms. Indulge in a thrilling catamaran sail across the ocean, complete with a wonderful sit-down lobster lunch and access to an open bar. Enjoy a horseback ride down a beautiful beach. Step back in time on a historic walking tour of the island.

Though Barbados is known for its picture-perfect beaches and turquoise waters, it also has a wild side—a rocky coastline with crashing waves, the oldest rum distillery in the world (built in 1703), and gorgeous gardens everywhere. British influences are abundant. Kids love seeing the protected green monkeys at the Barbados Wildlife Preserve. Bridgetown, the capital, is historic and colorful with a laid-back vibe and plenty of shops and boutiques to find mementos.

On the island of St. Croix, there are numerous beaches where you can relax. For the more adventurous, head to Coakley Bay Beach or Cane Bay Beach for snorkeling and diving. The food scene on St. Croix is a scrumptious mix of Cajun and Caribbean cuisines and never disappoints. Make time to tour a rum distillery, or head to Sandy Point Wildlife Refuge or Buck Island Reef National Park. Nature lovers will be in their element here.

Just 27 miles long and 14 miles wide, this Caribbean island has a wealth of natural wonders and unrivaled splendor. Its volcanic origins have resulted in incredibly lush vegetation and awe-inspiring scenery. Whether you want to lounge on a powdery sand  beach, hike to the top of a volcano, or zip line through the jungle, St. Lucia has you covered. The cuisine here is divine, with a blend of Creole and Caribbean. Soufriere, in the south, offers plantation tours, hidden beaches, and spectacular views of the iconic Pitons.

12-Year-Old Boy Falls to His Death from Balcony of Cruise Ship Heading for Galveston, Texas

"We are deeply saddened to confirm the death of one of our guests," Royal Caribbean told PEOPLE in a statement

A 12-year-old boy has died after falling from the balcony of a cruise ship.

The pre-teen was aboard Royal Caribbean’s Harmony of the Seas — which was en route to Galveston, Texas at the end of a week-long cruise — when the incident happened on Saturday, Sept. 7.

A Royal Caribbean spokesperson told PEOPLE in a statement, “We are deeply saddened to confirm the death of one of our guests. Our Care Team is providing support and assistance to the guest's family during this difficult time. For the privacy of the guest and their family, we have no additional details to share.”

PEOPLE has confirmed that the boy fell at the ‘Central Park’ area of the ship, located on deck 8, where many of the vessel’s bars, restaurants and shops live. He sadly died before the vessel docked in Texas.

The news comes after a 16-year-old boy also fell to his death on the ship back in 2019.

According to multiple outlets, the teenager fell while attempting to climb into his room from the balcony. 

At the time, Royal Caribbean corporate communications manager, Owen Torres, confirmed the death in a statement to PEOPLE. “We are saddened by the loss of one of our guests in a tragic accident,” the statement read. 

Never miss a story — sign up for PEOPLE's free daily newsletter to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer​​, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. 

The Broward Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed to PEOPLE in a statement at the time that the boy was on the eighth floor of Harmony of the Seas when he attempted to climb into his room because he forgot his room key.

According to a press release from Royal Caribbean, Harmony of the Seas was the world’s largest cruise liner when it launched in 2016. She departed on her maiden voyage in November 2016 from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.  

The vessel has 16 guest decks, 2,747 staterooms and can carry over 5,000 guests.

ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISE 2024-26 GUIDE

When it comes to planning the ultimate getaway, there are so many reasons why cruise holidays rank among the most popular travel options. First of all, they’re completely stress-free. On a cruise holiday, all the planning is taken care of by the cruise line – from the  destinations  you sail to and the  shore excursions  available at each port, to a full range of  entertainment  and activities happening onboard every day. If you’re not a planner, or if the only things you’re looking to focus on during your getaway is savouring great food, relaxing and soaking up the sights, cruise holidays are the way to go. A cruise holiday is also a great option if you’re travelling with the whole family, especially when you opt for a Royal Caribbean cruise. All of the ships in this cruise line’s fleet offer family-friendly experiences for guests of all ages. Even little ones will find plenty of ways to play with spaces and activities designed for tots to tweens. One of the top reasons savvy travellers love cruising, though, is because of the incredible value it offers. With Royal Caribbean, your cruise fare includes access to most of the ship’s attractions, select dining venues and all of the entertainment onboard. If you want to make your  experience  even more all-inclusive, you can opt for  drink  and  speciality dining  packages that cover drinks and dinner at some of the most exclusive restaurants in the fleet. On top of all that, the cruise line presents frequent limited-time offers and seasonal sales, making it easy to score big savings when booking your holidays.
