Great Places to Go on a

Caribbean Islands Cruise

Author: Joseph Ducat

There are few more enjoyable ways to spend a vacation than by going on an ocean cruise to the islands of the Caribbean. There, you will be able to lose yourself in a sultry tropical paradise, where adventure awaits you in various scuba diving and snorkeling excursions, and relaxation abounds on luxurious white beaches and clear crystal waters.

Let us explore in words a few of the wonderful places you can visit in the Caribbean on an ocean cruise:

Jamaica is an amazing and fun place, not surprising as it is the birthplace of Bob Marley and the music known as reggae. You can visit the resorts of Montego Bay, famous for its clear waters and lovely beaches. It is a beautiful place, but do be careful--this city is also known for its high crime rate.

The Cayman Islands, near Jamaica, are a very popular cruise destination. There is great scuba diving to be experienced here, including dives at shipwrecks, and there is a famous snorkeling location--Stingray City--where tourists can go snorkeling with wild stingrays that have gotten so used to humans that they pose no threat. If you just want to while away time at a beach resort, then you can stay at the Seven Mile Beach on Grand Cayman.

The Dutch Antilles include the islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao. Aruba is a great place to spend a winter vacation, as it has dry, sunny weather throughout the year. Bonaire is a great place to go scuba diving, being one of the top-rated locations for the sport. The island is surrounded by well-preserved coral reefs, and in fact the entire coastline has been designated a marine sanctuary, so that the ocean life remains very rich and diverse. Another popular tourist activity on Bonaire is flamingo watching.

The independent island nation of Barbados boasts one of the highest standards of living in the developing world. It is a place with many great resorts and tourist attractions, such as the unique Atlantis Submarine diving trip. There are also snorkeling expeditions that feature visits to shipwrecks and swimming with turtles. If you really love turtles, you can see more at the Barbados Wildlife Reserve, where you will see many large specimens, as well as many other types of animal and plant life.

There are a lot more great destinations to explore in the Caribbean. We have not even considered Bermuda, Cuba, or the Virgin Islands, among many, many others.
