When you decide you want to enjoy your vacation by taking a cruise to the tropics, the possibilities are almost endless. Choose one of the tropical cruises to Hawaii and enjoy cruising around the islands. These cruises are available in durations on 7 nights or 15 nights depending on the cruise line you decide to use. The seven-night cruise lists the following ports of call:
- Honolulu, Oahu
- Hilo, Hawaii
- Kahului, Hawaii
- Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
- Nawailiwili, Kauai
If you take the 15 night cruise, you will depart from San Diego and sail across the Pacific giving you plenty of time to enjoy the sunshine on deck and relax around the pool. The ports in which you will stop when you reach Hawaii include:
- Hilo, Hawaii
- Honolulu, Oahu
- Lahaina, Maui
- Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
The cruise to Hawaii that you finally decide to take depends on how much time you want to spend at sea and how much time you want to actually spend in Hawaii. It also depends on whether or not you want to join the cruise in San Diego or if you want to fly to Honolulu to join the cruise.
The Caribbean is another tropical destination with a wide variety of cruises available. You can even take a short cruise of 3 or 4 days to a few of the islands and get a chance to enjoy spectacular sightseeing and shopping onshore. A seven-night cruise of the Eastern Caribbean departs from Fort Lauderdale and sails to San Juan, Puerto Rico. You will have eight hours of fun in this city before sailing off to Basseterre on the island of St. Kitts. Spend the day here and then head out to Philipsburg, St. Martin for a full day before heading back to Florida.
You don't have to limit yourself to Hawaii or the Caribbean when you want to take a tropical cruise. Europe is filled with exciting destinations, such as a Mediterranean cruise or a cruise of the Greek Islands all of which are in tropical locations and give you the opportunity to see the sights of the ancient world. What about a cruise to Southeast Asia to French Polynesia, Thailand or even Bali? Even better, think about the possibilities of discovering untold treasures by taking a tropical world cruise when you have three months of the year to spare. In this manner you can escape the full brunt of winter and return home relaxed and tanned.
