Fri, Nov 07, 2008
Picture yourself snorkelling in a secluded cove, wandering through narrow cobblestone streets, or sunbathing on a stretch of powdery white sand. The Caribbean offers thrills aplenty for the winter weary. Departure cities, itineraries, and ports of call may vary, but a Caribbean cruise practically guarantees sun-kissed shores, tranquil turquoise waters, azure skies, and balmy climes. Evelyn Byrne, Managing Director of Castle Travel, is a true cruise convert and has enjoyed cruises in this region among others.
The ports of call you visit will depend on the itinerary and cruise line, but how you spend the day on shore is entirely up to you. Book excursions before setting sail or while on board, or make your own arrangements in port.
