What is the best month to cruise to the Caribbean?

Images of palm trees, white powdery beaches, crystal clear and warm ocean waters are why so many people choose a Caribbean cruise.

I tried the cheapest Carnival Cruise Line cabin I could find and here's how it went

There are few things in life that I love more than finding an incredible cruise deal. For me, it’s so thrilling to find a last minute cruise deal that doesn’t break the bank and actually works with my crazy schedule.

Happy Saturday from Cozumel! It's Day 3 of our 4-night cruise and the weekend is flying by.

I can't believe we are able to be whisked away to Mexico over the weekend - one of the many reasons I love cruising and living in the south. It was so easy to get to the cruise port from my home that this really makes the perfect weekend getaway.

Angie and I had another busy day both ashore in Cozumel and onboard Carnival Ecstasy!

It’s our second day onboard Carnival Ecstasy and we had a busy day exploring everything this old girl has to offer.

It almost seems like we’ve entered a time warp to the 90s onboard this ship. Everything is brightly colored with neon shades everywhere you look. The ship wasn’t designed for easy navigation either, as we constantly have trouble figuring out where we need to go.
