BL Ports - February - Sargassum?

[tbmrt]

We are close to booking a Feb 2024 cruise.  I came across lots of info and pics about sargassum problems at the various ports in Feb. 2023 which concerns me.   I had read that sargassum usually comes later in the year.

 

Am I overreacting???

 In a word... Yes. 

It can be cleared if its need by port authorities and should not affect your voyage in any way.

We have no control over mother nature. I have a bunch of friends who are on the Brilliant Lady itineraries and am very close to pulling the trigger myself. Honestly, besides the Valiant 8-night Eastern Caribbean from Miami, those are two best Caribbean itineraries Virgin has going right now.

That's funny, a friend just booked that exact date and is trying to get us to come along. 🙂 You never know....
