Mexico
As we all first think of the Caribbean when we hear the word ‘tropical’, we tend to ignore all these breathtaking places that have the same climate and many other similarities. One of them is actually pretty close to the Caribbean Sea – Mexico. Turquoise water, white sand beaches, hundreds and hundreds of cocktails, palm trees, etc. If that’s not enough, keep in mind that Mexico was home to Mayan people who have left one of the most inspiring footprints in the world.
Mexico is also rich in culture and art, so it’s impossible not to find something for yourself. From delicious food such as tortillas and empanadas to one of the most famous drinks in the world – tequila. The great thing about choosing Mexico as your cruise destination is that it’s close to other beautiful countries, whether it’s in the Caribbean Sea or not i.e. Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Colombia.
Central America
If you’re more interested to explore the destinations southern from Mexico, a few of them mentioned above, how about visiting the famous Panama Canal and countries in Central America? All of them have so much to offer when it comes to the gastro scene, nightlife, classic touristic activities, wildlife, stunning views, etc.
Let’s not forget that some of the most beautiful beaches in the world are located in Central America. Near the Panama Canal, you will find so many beaches that it would be difficult to see all of them on your cruise. The good news is there are truly hundreds of different packages when it comes to the Caribbean cruise so you can choose a longer one where you will see more of these beautiful places and, of course, beaches.

Middle East
Let’s be honest, the Middle East wouldn’t be the first region that comes to mind when talking about tropical destinations. However, famous places such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Muscat and Bahrain will provide you with the exquisite experience that can only be found in the tropics. Companies that organize cruises in that part of the world ensured the complete diversity of their offer, so you can find anything from great shopping to amazing beaches and exciting nightlife.
