Creator's Key Takeaways
We've actually taken two cruises out of the east coast of the United States, one from Florida and one from New York City.
We've done two out of the West Coast as well. We've gone out of Seattle and the port of Los Angeles.
All of these cruises were with Norwegian Cruise Line.
I'm happy either side of the country. I would go on an East Coast cruise. I would go on a West Coast cruise.

East Coast cruise vs. West Coast cruise, which one is right for you? 🚢 In this video, we compare East Coast cruises and West Coast cruises using our real-life cruise experiences to help you decide which option fits your travel style. We’ve sailed Alaska cruises out of Seattle and Mexican Riviera cruises out of Los Angeles on the West Coast, and Caribbean cruises out of Port Canaveral plus a Bermuda cruise out of Manhattan on the East Coast. We talk about differences in cruise port cities, itineraries, onboard vibe, sea days, weather, and why the time of year you cruise can completely change your experience. From a packed Thanksgiving Mexican Riviera cruise filled with families and large groups, to a quieter January Caribbean cruise that felt under capacity, and a summer Bermuda cruise right after kids got out of school, we share how seasonality impacts crowd levels, ship atmosphere, and overall cruise enjoyment. This honest cruise comparison isn’t about which coast is better, it’s about choosing the right cruise based on destination, itinerary length, and when you’re able to travel. Let us know in the comments, do you prefer East Coast cruises or West Coast cruises? And how much does timing matter when you plan your cruises?
