Eastern or Western Caribbean
For me, West is best for fun (I love Cozumel, Sting Ray City and Dunn's
River Falls). When we go East, I enjoy the uncrowded ship (pool and spa, particularly). Candy -- East is next Been on a few cruises, but looking at doing the Caribbean. Which one is better, Eastern or Western? |

Which is better "in your humble opinion". I guess what I'm asking for here
is input from those who've done both and pros and cons of each. "Tom & Linda" wrote in message . net... Better as far as What? --Tom "Marlinmike" wrote in message ... Been on a few cruises, but looking at doing the Caribbean. Which one is better, Eastern or Western? |

There a kazillion ports in the Eastern, some great, some good, some aren't worth getting off in. Then there is the debate as to which is in the Eastern and which is in the Southern Caribbean.

Eastern or Western Caribbean
I love snorkeling. To me that's a MAJOR priority.
The Western has Cozumel and Cayman which I'd rate at a 10 on the 1-10 scale. It also has Jamaica, Key West and Labadee (for RCI) which I'd put closer to a 1 on the 1-10 scale (but others disagree). Costa Maya is somewhere in between. I've not been down as far as Belize or Roatan. The Eastern has a lot of different variations. I love St. Thomas - because that's where I always take a taxi to St. John. On the 1-10 scale... I'd put St. John at a 10+. I also like St. Maarten (I go to Pinel Island which is like a private island so to speak), and I like Antigua. I'm not a big fan of Nassau or Puerto Rico by cruise ship (though I go there on business all the time and love Puerto Rico). If you find an NCL or RCI itinerary that goes to either Great Stirrup Cay or CocoCay, I love those. Personally I love the Southern Caribbean the best when you sail from San Juan down to places like Barbados, Antigua, St. Lucia, St. Thomas (St. John), Martinique, Aruba, Curacao, St. Kitts, etc. The Southern itineraries typically give you 5 ports (which I love) because you don't waste a lot of time getting down to the islands like you do from Florida. --Tom "Marlinmike" wrote in message ...
