Margaritaville at Sea Unveils Concept Art for Beachcomber’s Key Spaces

10/10/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

Margaritaville at Sea is giving us a sneak peek at life aboard its brand-new flagship, Beachcomber, sailing from PortMiami in 2027, and let’s just say, it looks pretty, pretty cool! The cruise line dropped concept art of several major spaces on the ship, and if these renderings are anything to…

MSC to Add a Bahamas Straw Market to Ocean Cay Marine Reserve

10/10/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

If you’ve cruised with MSC, you probably already know how incredible Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve is. It’s hands-down my favorite private island — no crazy theme park-style attractions, no rushing here and there, just beach, sand, and plenty of relaxation on an island that never feels crowded and where…

10/09/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

If you’ve ever spent a day on Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island, Great Stirrup Cay, you know it’s the perfect place to kick back with a frozen drink in one hand as you work on a tan to make your friends back home jealous. But if you’ve got a cruise…

Halloween at Sea: What to Expect Onboard A Spooktacular Voyage

10/08/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

There’s something deliciously eerie about being at sea in October. The ocean seems darker, the nights stretch a little longer, and when the moonlight hits the waves just right, you could almost swear you see something watching from the mist. Onboard, pumpkins glow in the atrium, cobwebs hang from railings,…

Five Stupid Things Cruisers Do That Earn Them Lifetime Bans

10/08/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

Cruise lines are pretty forgiving. They’ll tolerate you complaining about sub-par food in the dining room, removing tips on the last day of the cruise, or "reserving" your deck chair at 5:30am but not putting your butt in it until 10am. But there are a few things that will get…

10/07/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

Norwegian Cruise Line’s newest ship, Norwegian Aqua, has officially arrived at her new home in PortMiami for her first winter season in the Caribbean.

Disney Fantasy Gets a New “Nose” During Current Dry Dock

10/06/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

If you’ve been wondering why the Disney Fantasy isn’t sailing the Caribbean right now, it’s because she’s taking a little spa break in the form of a dry dock at the shipyard in Brest, France. After wrapping up her European season, the 13 year old Dream-class ship is getting some…

Missed Ports? Changed Routes? Here’s Why You Won’t Get Compensation

10/03/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

At the end of September and into early October, Mother Nature did what she always does during hurricane season - she stirred things up. A storm system along the East Coast and in the Caribbean forced several cruise ships to adjust itineraries. Some changes were minor - skipping a port…

Sip at Sea: How to Bring Princess Cruises’ Cocktails Home

10/01/2025 Scott Sanfilippo

One of the best things about going on a cruise is the food, and if we're being totally honest, the drinks. There’s just something about having a drink package that gives you the freedom to try concoctions you wouldn’t normally order back home. Maybe you’re a “Jack and Coke” person…
