The 9 to 5 grind has got you down and you have to get away. Enjoying a real escape from your responsibilities means leaving the blackberry behind and jetting away to a faraway paradise. Naturally, you can’t cut the corporate ties by staying too close to home. A cruise is the perfect way to get away and forget your worries for a few days, weeks, or even months.
Ask anyone to tell you her or his vision of paradise. The answer will likely be “powder white sand beaches, bright sunlight, and cool ocean breezes”. That pretty much sums up the Caribbean, and certainly, it’s not that far away.
Caribbean cruise specials make it affordable and easy to get away from it all. Everything you require for a week of pure pleasure is all there in one bundle, and at one payment. Cruising the Caribbean is truly paradise perfection.

So, take as much time as possible for your Caribbean cruise. Travel from port to port, and explore as much as you can to experience this wonderful region. Shoppers will delight on the markets in many of the ports, while adventurous types appreciate the natural wonders at each destination. Visit modern cities for shopping or sightseeing excursions, or try horseback riding or hiking through unspoiled terrain. Pristine beaches, cascading waterfalls, and uninhibited rainforests will have you wishing you would never leave this fantastic part of the world.
The best part about Caribbean cruises is that you return to the ship every night, unless alternate arrangements have been arranged. So you can explore the ports-of-call during the day, while relaxing in luxurious, comfortable accommodations at night. Cooking over an open fire and sleeping in a native grass hut may make an explorer’s heart beat faster, but it simply can’t compare to a room service on a silver tray, or lounging in a king-size bed.
Certain cruise packages may give you the option to camp or stay in a native village, but this is a choice, not a requirement of visiting the region. You can rough it all day long, and then unwind in comfort when nature gets the best of you.
