Dreaming of island hopping in the Caribbean? With a cruise those dreams become a reality. You needn’t choose between Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Barbados or the Bahamas when you can visit them all. That’s what makes sailing in the region so appealing.

The moment you board, logistics (and stresses) are left behind. Simply unpack one time, get comfy, and let the captain divert you to some of the world’s most beautiful shores. No additional passport checks needed. All you need to do is decide whether you want to go snorkelling or scuba diving, or perhaps which beach club to park at for an afternoon of cocktails and sunbathing.

Caribbean cruises are most popular when it's cold back home. Sail between December and April for optimum conditions (read: non-stop sunshine) and avoid official hurricane season, which is from June to November. If you’re looking to save money and are ok with a small risk, the shoulder months of May and June might still be warm and dry.

These days, there is a cruise ship for everyone. Younger singles can find options where mingling is encouraged, like on Virgin Voyages, which has fun ‘solo sailors’ meet-ups and single cabin deals, while retired couples might enjoy the all-inclusive nature and upmarket refinement of Royal Caribbean’s fleet. No matter what provider you choose, expect two things: not to go hungry, and a sharp climb in your country-count.

Whatever your tastes, budgets and party size, there’s a Caribbean adventure waiting for you.
