Cruise travel is
getting even more “amazing” with a growing number of destinations accessible by
ship around this ocean-linked world.
As part of “Plan a
Cruise” month, Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) has unveiled the “11
most amazing and unexpected” destinations.
“While Caribbean
paradises may be the first cruise destination to come to mind for many, cruise
lines are continually expanding cruise locales to include hidden gems of the world
and surprising locations,” it says.
