Caribbean warm seas wash the beaches of hundreds of beautiful vibrant islands and the cultural influences of Europe, Africa and Latin America. Almost guaranteed sunshine, a friendly welcome and proximity to US mainland ports make the Caribbean the world's busiest and most popular cruise area. The scenery on offer ranges from lush, mountainous to flat arid islands and coral atolls. Bounded by Mexico and Central America to the west, the USA to the north and South America to the south, the area is full of historic sights from Mayan ruins to pirate lairs. Cruises depart from US ports like Houston, New Orleans and the world's biggest cruise port - Miami. There are an increasing number of cruises from the more centrally located Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, Barbados and Jamaica.
