CARIBBE is one of the most popular cruise routes during the winter season. Here everyone feels like in paradise. The warm climate, white sands, and location have made the Caribbean islands the most famous in the world. Not surprisingly, all cruise lines feel obligated to maintain at least one cruise ship in the region.

 

While Caribbean cruises are operated all year round on many ships, we recommend sailing between mid-October and mid-April. And we do not recommend visiting the Caribbean and Florida from August to September due to the high probability of hurricanes.

 

The Caribbean islands are geographically divided into the Greater and Lesser Antilles. But for cruise line routes, the division goes into Western Caribbean, Eastern Caribbean, Southern Caribbean and Bahamas. What ports are visited by cruise ships and what are the features of each subregion:

 

Western Caribbean - Some of the most beautiful cruise lines. On a cruise, you will see the fast-growing metropolitan areas and untouched corners of nature, as well as many attractions such as the Riviera Maya in Mexico, the largest barrier reef off the coast of Belize, or go on an excursion to the rum factory in Tortuga. Cruise companies often arrange routes in such a way that the liner alternates between cruises in the Eastern and Western Caribbean. Thus, our tourists combine Western and Eastern cruises, going on cruises for two weeks on the same liner.

 

Most of the cruise ships dock at ports in Central America. On a cruise along the Western Caribbean route you can visit the following ports:

 

Labadi, Haiti;

 

Falmouth, Jamaica;

 

Montego Bay, Jamaica;

Many exotic places and excursions await you on your travels with Four Gates Ukraine. A multitude of cruise routes, in which you will visit a maximum of countries and islands, are waiting for you.
