How to Pick Your Cruise Port

Your cruise port sets the stage for your entire experience. Each city offers unique benefits, from a convenient location to specific destination access.

Popular U.S. cruise ports include:

Miami

The Cruise Capital of the World, with sailings to the Caribbean and Bahamas.

Port Canaveral

One of the busiest cruise ports, perfect for pairing your sailing with visits to Orlando theme parks or beaches.

Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)

A hub for Caribbean and transatlantic sailings.

Tampa

A smaller, easier-to-navigate port, with itineraries to the Caribbean and Mexico.

Galveston

A great choice for those based in Texas or nearby states.

Seattle and San Diego

Popular starting points for Alaska and Pacific voyages.

When selecting a port, we encourage travelers to think about the convenience of that location, airfare, and the type of cruise destinations offered from each city.

Preferred Cruise Line & Destinations

Every cruise line offers a unique experience.

Royal Caribbean, for example, is known for its innovative cruise ships and extensive range of destinations, while other lines, such as Viking and AmaWaterways, focus more on luxury or boutique-style itineraries.

Of course, destinations play a significant role in your decision. Many of our clients look for:

Caribbean and Bahamas cruises for sunny beaches and short travel times
Alaska cruises for breathtaking scenery and wildlife encounters
Longer transatlantic voyages to Europe to experience rich history and culture

We work with you to choose a cruise line and itinerary that aligns with your travel style and goals.

Is It Worth Traveling to Different Ports for a Better Itinerary or Price?

Sometimes, the best itinerary or price isn’t available at your nearest port. For example, Miami may offer more choices than Tampa, or Fort Lauderdale may feature a route that fits your schedule and travel interests. While traveling farther requires a bit of extra planning, it can be worthwhile for the savings or to secure your perfect itinerary.

When to Arrive at Your Port

We recommend arriving at your port city at least 1 day before your cruise sails. This allows you extra time in case of travel delays and provides an opportunity to explore. Cities like Miami, Orlando, and Seattle offer beaches, dining, and attractions worth enjoying before you board.
