Just about every cruise line has special Christmas Cruises each holiday season. Of course, most Christmas cruises are headed for hot places, but the cruise lines try to keep the atmosphere onboard as “Christmassy” as possible. These theme cruises typically include Christmas decorations, Christmas music, Christmas themed meals, Santas, and more. While Christmas cruises will offer much in the way of holiday spirit, guests can still gamble, club hop, relax at a spa, swim, and sign up for fun excursions.
Just a few of the best Christmas cruise this year include Norwegian Cruise Lines 9-night Southern Caribbean Cruise, Carnival Cruises 8-night Western Caribbean Cruise, Celebrity Cruises 8-night Eastern Caribbean Cruise, and P&O’s popular Calypso Christmas and Magical Mediterranean.
