Bookend your Caribbean cruise with a stay in sultry Miami and the tropical Florida Keys
Florida is a popular jumping-off point for a Caribbean cruise, so why not extend your holiday, exploring the steamy wetlands, sultry cities and sandy shores of the Sunshine State too?
Start in Miami, a sizzling city that sashays to a Latino beat, thanks partly to its many Cuban exiles who hotfooted it from the motherland, bringing the party with them. Sunny, suggestive and never taking itself too seriously, Miami is a city worth lingering in. There’s its delicious, stick-to-your-ribs Latino cuisine and exquisite selection of seafood, its hedonistic nightlife and, of course, the famous art deco architecture.

But let’s not forget that cruise – a ship such as the Celebrity Equinox offers all manner of dining facilities and activities on board as it sails between stunning island ports in the Eastern Caribbean. Well-chosen ports of call provide opportunities to marvel at San Juan’s 17th-century San Cristobal fort and tropical rainforest, explore the 37-mile-square St Maarten and drink in the natural beauty of St Kitts.
There's plenty of time to relax and indulge on a cruise around the Caribbean.
