Creator's Key Takeaways
We're a travel loving couple who have been on over 26 cruises, sailed 19 different ships, and explored 51 ports of call across 24 countries.
Bahamas and the Caribbean are 100% the most popular places to cruise and also the most popular places that people pick specifically from the US to cruise for the first time.
If you do really end up enjoying it, you will probably really regret doing a shorter sailing.
I think it's really important to note that there is a trend that is going on in the cruise industry right now, specifically with the Caribbean and the Bahamas, which is that they are putting more ships out to do shorter sailings.
