Caribbean Cruise Destinations

When you consider taking a holiday cruise, you might be overwhelmed with the vast amount of offerings to places like Mexico, the Caribbean or the Mediterranean. While each of these destinations are incredible places to visit, some travellers look for something slightly more unique and truly one of a kind. For those discerning passengers, Royal Caribbean offers a wide range of exciting destinations that are off the beaten path. Consider one of these 5 unique Royal Caribbean cruise destinations for your upcoming holiday.

1. Vietnam: For those travellers who want to enjoy attractive beaches while still enjoying some history and culture, Vietnam is often the perfect fit. Consider a cruise to the city of Nha Trang, the capital of the province Khanh Hoa. Not only can you experience Asian and colonial architecture in the centre of the town, but the ship will bring you directly to the white sandy beaches. Enjoy a cocktail or some upscale dining on the many beachfront restaurants along the shore.

2. Australia: With a country as large as Australia, the best way to visit all the largest cities is to try a Royal Caribbean cruise. Make time for the two week cruise that visits all the major ports in the region, including the capital city of Sydney. Experience attractions like the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bride all from your window. The ships dock directly in the harbour, making a cruise ship the ultimate way to experience the capital city of Australia.

3. Hong Kong: This city is truly a blend of East and West. Although technically a part of China, Hong Kong is a completely modern and Westernized destination. It is the ideal place to visit on a cruise holiday as liners are able to pull up directly in the famed Victoria Harbour. Enjoy a ferry ride between Hong Kong and Kowloon Islands, enjoy traditional meals in the Wan Chai District, or try shopping at some of the upscale malls in Central District.

4. United Arab Emirates: Although the UAE may not be the first destination that comes to mind for a cruise holiday, it offers a wide variety of interesting locations, rich history and incredible deep sea diving. Explore the modern and luxurious city of Dubai, ride on the back of a camel in Fujairah or tour Abu Dhabi’s fascinating markets and luxury restaurants.

5. Brazil: Some of Brazil’s most spectacular cities are located along the water, making it easy for your Royal Caribbean ship to sail right up to all the action. Don’t miss out on the excitement of Rio de Janeiro and its famed beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema. The magnificent Christ the Redeemer Statue from Sugarloaf Mountain greets the ship as it pulls up to Brazil’s beautiful shoreline.
