My Top 4 Things To Do On A Caribbean Cruise

My first visit to the Caribbean was in 2013 and I was charmed by each island that I visited. So much so, I’ve been back several times and fallen in love with many other places. Each island is different and has its own unique charm and characteristics, and one thing you’re never short of in…

Fred. Olsen World Cruise 2018: Bermuda, Cuba And Cozumel

We’re now onto day 19 of this wonderful 108-night cruise and I am loving every moment – even the non-sunbathing days that force me to sample the bar menu and try my hardest to get more than 2 points in the morning quiz! I’m doing well so far and even managed to WIN one day….

Caribbean And USA With P&O Cruises – Part 3

Jamaica was another hot and sunny day and I was met at the port by my guide for the day, Marsha. We left the ship behind and drove Downtown, which was a fantastic experience! This is where the locals like to do their daily shopping and it was a real glimpse at typical Jamaican life….

Port Planning With A Difference

Caribbean Cruise Cozumel

Ahhh Cozumel! The day that we had planned as a beach day and what happened, the Carnival Legend pulled up next door and it started raining! OK I can’t blame the Legend as it only rained briefly and it was still so muggy and warm it felt like you could barely breathe. We made our…

Leaving The Caribbean

Hello from the Atlantic Ocean! It’s not quite as exciting this time around though as we are now heading back towards the cold of the UK. Since my last blog we have been more or less all over the Caribbean. We enjoyed a partial transit of the Panama Canal which was fantastic. We went through…

Nachi Cocom Beach Club Cozumel

It’s our first booked with the cruise line but we do already have one other day arranged that we will be doing on our own. Nachi Cocom Beach Resort in Cozumel, Mexico. It comes highly recommended and…

Caribbean Port Planning

So my friend and I have been planning what to do on our upcoming cruise. Usually I don’t plan a lot to be honest, I just go with the flow when I get there unless there is something I really want to see, for example I really wanted to see the leaning Tower of Pisa,…
