Caribbean Beach and Cruise with Kids
By Heather Diller
Tired of the typical whereabouts? Are you seeking for a new
place to visit and enjoy? Why not try the Caribbean cruise
routes and have fun under the sun. You can go through lots
of fantastic places from Florida down to Puerto Rico. These
are just some of the Southern Caribbean destination stops
you will surely love.
If you are taking your Caribbean cruise, along with your
family, it is best to do an exploration upon touching into
various Southern Caribbean ports. These ports are less
crowded as compared to Eastern or Western Caribbean
cruises.
Moreover, your kids will surely love the sight of
waterfalls, caves and the beach. They will definitely enjoy
a walk in the butterfly farms or the ports in Curacao,
Dominica, Antigua, St. Kitts, Puerto Rico, Sta. Lucia and
much, much more. Not to mention that these trips are surely
affordable and convenient for the family.
As part of the Caribbean cruises, you and your family would
definitely love a stay at Antigua's Halcyon Cove Hotel.
Here, the water is calm and the kids can enjoy a swim in the
beach. Your kids may also swim out to nearby St. John's Fort
James Beach where you can swim to your heart's content and
never worry about amenities. The beach has beach umbrellas,
lounge chairs and picturesque shade huts.
Part of the Caribbean cruise is accommodation amenities at
the Halcyon Cove Hotel in Antigua. The beaches nearby are
warm and calm and your kids can swim to their hearts'
delight without you having to worry that they have swam too
far out or too much. The pretty St. John's Fort James Beach
has all the amenities like lounge chairs, shade huts and
beach umbrellas for the family.
Do not miss the places of interest like Shirley Heights
Lookout, the Blockhouse, and Dockyard Museum. You only need
to go to the Nelson's Dockyard National Park, where all of
these three places you would have a tour into.
Meanwhile, if you are interested in extreme water sports,
then why not head out to Aruba for its open beaches and
surfing spots? You just need to spend a minimum of 12
dollars from the port going to these areas, using a taxi. In
the Oranjested main street, you might take an interest in
the Atlantis semi-submarines. A ride into one of these would
greatly amuse your kids to no end. It would be one of the
greatest adventures of their lifetime.
Aside from that, you can take them to the Aruba butterfly
farm where they can see those beautiful creatures of
different colors. You can also check out Aruba Donkey
Sanctuary which is just located near the AYO rock
formations. You can simply rent a jeep to discover these
places and to take your kids for a tour. These are just some
of the dozens of Caribbean cruises you can surely take
pleasure in and keep going back for more.
