Welcome to the launch of Caribbean-Island-Cruise.com.  Our site is about experiences and lessons learned while planning and travelling to the Caribbean Islands by cruise ship.

Although my sister had been trying to get me to cruise for years, my first Caribbean island cruise was in 2005 on the Royal Caribbean Mariner Of the Seas ship with my husband.  It was a theme cruise for motorcycle enthusiasts and we cruised to the Western Caribbean Islands.

I fell in love with the contrasting hues of blue waters, mountains, and unspoiled pristine white sandy beaches as well as all of the amenities of cruise travel.

Wanting to see more of the what I consider some of the most beautiful places on earth, anytime my sis gets the urge to cruise the islands, I do everything possible to join her.

Now, with three sisters in tow, we visit the Caribbean Islands by cruise ship at least once a year attempting to visit different islands of the region.

This site is dedicated to sharing our passion of the Caribbean Islands with others who enjoy cruising or might be considering a cruise to the Caribbean Islands.

We also will share with you our photos, experiences, discuss cruise topics like weather, suggested dress, travel policies, places of interest, and cruise line policy. Most of the cruise lines have this information on their own website, but we’re planning to add a personal touch.

We’d love to hear from you and your experiences, too.  We know not all cruises are the same.

Plantation hotels are a big draw because of their sense of history, intimacy and distinctive architectural detailing, such as old stone windmills and ruins of thick volcanic stone walls.

Fresh seafood, warm sunshine and wave-kissed beaches. And just a short hop from the U.S. mainland. Why wouldn’t you want to visit the Bahamas?
