mickeychief@live.com Posted July 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I am looking for advice on Southern Caribbean cruises particularly around Christmas anywhere from 7 to 12 days long. We have done Eastern & Western Caribbean already so we prefer itinerary that doesn't include St Thomas or St Martin. We were hoping to do the cruise around Christmas with our 2 four year olds. We would like something fun but affordable. Any advice you have would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 24, 2017 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Take a look at some trvel agent web sites where you can enter your search parameters and look at all cruise lines. If you select the departure port of Port Everglades and Miami, you will see some 10-12 day cruises to the Southern Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted July 24, 2017 #3 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Go to http://www.cruisetimetables.com. Choose your departure port, and then your dates. It will show you who is sailing, and their itineraries. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted July 24, 2017 #5 Share Posted July 24, 2017 The Royal Princess has a 10-day southern Caribbean cruise that begins Dec. 10. It goes to the Dominican Republic, St. Thomas, Dominique, Grenada, Bonaire, and Curacao. I know you said you'd like an itinerary without St. Thomas. You can always skip going off the ship and treat it like another day at sea if you'd like. We've done that many times on cruises where we were in ports that we'd been to before. It's very relaxing and uncrowded. If you choose a cruise that includes Christmas, it will be a lot more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted July 24, 2017 #6 Share Posted July 24, 2017 There are several options. My suggestion would be to get a TA who specializes in cruising to help you with this. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted July 24, 2017 #7 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Around Christmas and New Years, as long as it is the week or two before and after, will be relatively affordably priced. A cruise those Holidays that will include them will be at premium pricing. We also did the RCI 9-night Labadee and ABC's as another mentioned and it was a very good itinerary. There are others as well so agree we checking with a TA for options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
