Creator's Key Takeaways

I love cruising the Caribbean and would recommend it despite the good and bad

the best time to go in my personal opinion is if you can early December because the weather's fantastic and it's before the big crowds

the worst thing of all of a Caribbean cruise is the crowds and how busy it is

one of the worst things about cruising the Caribbean is the reports and the news and the concern that crime is growing across the islands

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Think about the type of experience you want because there is plenty of choice and options
βœ“Be sensible and careful when visiting islands with reported crime issues
βœ“Ignore the shopping obsession and avoid the shopping expeditions

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Crowds and busy ports β€” Look at smaller cruise lines like Azamara to avoid crowds and go to more unusual places
Crime on islands β€” Be sensible and careful, as crime is mostly petty like pickpocketing
Islands blurring into one β€” Recognize that islands are similar, but some like St. Lucia and Barbados are more memorable
