The Caribbean is a region of this world frequently travelled. From sun-seekers, honeymooners, families, and singles, the Caribbean offers something for everyone. With hundreds of islands to choose from, there’s an abundance of activities, sights, scenery, and culture to immerse yourself in. However, with the long flight time, high demand, and all-inclusive resorts, the Caribbean isn’t the cheapest holiday destination.
While for many it is a dream destination and not one they could afford to visit every year, there are ways to explore the Caribbean on a budget.
Caribbean cruises: the best way to see the islands
A Caribbean cruise is a great way to tick off a large majority of the Caribbean’s 13 countries in one trip. With cruises setting sail from various ports around the world and a wide range of cruise lines offering excellent deals and packages, a cruise is one of the most efficient and cost-effective ways to explore the Caribbean on a budget.
What’s more you’ll be able to explore and unveil a huge variety of sights and experiences, while sailing around the many islands. Rather than staying in one place, your home away from home onboard will keep you comfortable as the captain and crew manage the safe embarkment and dis-embarkment of the ship from one Caribbean port to another.
Cruises to the Caribbean include stops in some of the world’s most luxurious islands. From the romantic beaches of the Dominican Republic, to some of the best parties and nightlife in Jamaica. From Aruba to Turks and Caicos, a Caribbean cruise will unlock the very best of this stunning part of the world. Introducing you to the relaxed atmosphere, pristine beaches, friendly locals and incredible cuisine that it has to offer.
Cruises unique to your travel requirements
Whether you’re travelling alone, with your family or as a couple, with a cruise you can choose from a wide variety of options. From the many cruise lines, each with their own unique style, to the onboard facilities, activities, and entertainment. Many of the world’s largest and most modern cruise ships are equipped with just about everything and more you could imagine. Some of them have even been dubbed “floating cities”. From rollercoasters, plunge pools, archery, and mini-golf for kids. To spas, luxury fine-dining restaurants, and specialised wellness facilities for adults and couples, there’s a cruise for everyone.
Stress-free travel
While a cruise deal will allow you to explore the Caribbean on a budget, this style of travelling will also ensure you experience a completely stress-free travel experience. No one likes the stress of navigating a new destination alone, particularly after a long-haul flight. One of the key benefits of a cruise for so many people, is the ability to step onboard and no longer have to worry about how, where, and when. Simply allow the crew and captain to take control, while you relax and unwind onboard. Surrounded by luxury amenities and facilities, a cruise ship is designed to ensure you enjoy every moment of your holiday from your excursions ashore to your nights onboard.
It’s one of the easiest ways to travel and so simple to book too. With hundreds of deals available, you can visit the Caribbean by cruise with prices as low as £399 per person.
