Your Guide to a Caribbean Island Cruise

By Irene Mmari

Often considered the vacation of choice for a certain age group, Caribbean cruises are now increasingly used by a much younger generation and especially families. It should be on everyone's list of vacations with tropical Caribbean islands, clear, clean beaches and of course a fun filled time on board the cruise liner. How long you sail for really is up to your budget and what standard of cabin you want but these tours can be add-ons for other vacations or as long as fourteen or more days.

Vacations like this are about enjoyment and it what these companies do best irrespective of weather or environment, it is your choice; enjoy the on board entertainment or that at each destination. If anything, you will have a hard time keeping up with everything that you can possibly do on a cruise liner.

Research is the key here if you want something that matches your interests so pay a visit to your local tour agents and find out more about what's available. Caribbean cruises travel to most parts of the world, but with different price packages for each itinerary together with the duration and the number of places visited.

Some cruise vacations to the Caribbean are for people that like to party with plenty of discos and non-stop entertainment and may not be the ideal place for families. While your travel agent can give more details, so can the Caribbean cruise liner website and information on the types of packages should be more in depth.

One important thing to remember is the type of clothes you pack for your trip as you will have the opportunity to wear all you normal holiday clothes plus those for dressing up in the evening. These are ideal opportunities to dress up which many of us do not get the chance to do these days so the ladies will want at least two evening gowns and the men will require a tuxedo.

Even if you intend to bring along your children on a family cruise vacation, there are plenty of programs to occupy them and they will not have a dull moment. There will be probably more for your children to do than at a standard resort, in fact you probably won't see them much during the day.

Some Caribbean cruises are specifically for adults only, which ideal for couples, honeymooners and people that just want to have a child free vacation. Other cruise liner packages are available and have been created for special occasions like weddings, honeymoons and anniversaries.

The whole idea of a Caribbean cruise vacation is that you enjoy yourself and just let go for however long you are on board because it may be some time before you go again!
