Destinations perfect for adult cruise experiences

You can travel nearly anywhere with Princess. These are some of the prime destinations that are perfect for romantic adult cruises:

• The Caribbean

  Picture yourself on the satin-soft, white-sand beaches surrounded by turquoise sea. There’s nothing more romantic than that. Set sail to the Caribbean, where you can bask in the tropical sunshine, snorkel, shop, relax on the beach and explore over 30 island ports. This is the epitome of relaxation. After all, sometimes the most romantic activity is to relax and feel at peace together.

• Canada

  You might not immediately think of a Canadian cruise as a prime romantic destination, but that’s just because you haven’t heard enough about it. Canada is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, with nature galore and cosmopolitan cities. It’s the ideal destination to see glaciers and the glittering jewel of Montreal. The excursions on this cruise are geared towards adults. They’re exciting and adventurous—or relaxing and romantic. Plus, fewer families select this cruise destination, so your ship is bound to be quieter.

• New England

  Nothing is more beautiful than rolling hills of fall leaves, and that’s what you get with a New England cruise. Experience the quaint villages of the Northeast and the delicious lobster feasts. This is another quiet and peaceful destination, with excursions designed for adults.

• Panama

  The jungle is the peak of romance and adventure. Have exciting excursions with other adults looking for the adventure of a lifetime.

• The Mediterranean

  The Mediterranean is full of beautiful places to explore. From the ruins of Athens to the white cliffs of Corfu, you can spend your romantic trip exploring Greece. Or you can stroll the streets of Rome and experience the awe-inspiring art of Florence with an Italian getaway. You can even hit Paris, the city of love! Whatever you’re looking for, the Mediterranean offers it all.

• Hawaii

  Imagine staring at a dazzling sunset while strolling a black-sand beach hand-in-hand with your special person. That can become a reality with a Princess cruise in Hawaii. Explore Maui or Kauai and lose yourself in paradise.

Are you prepared for the ultimate adult cruise experience?

Your cruise can be the vacation of a lifetime. Knowing what to expect can help you prepare and maximize your enjoyment:

• Ships are filling up quickly

  In the last couple of years, deals have often been to help fill empty rooms on cruise ships due to the lingering effects of the pandemic. However, 2024 is looking to be a full year of cruising. People are excited to get out and see the world. While you’ll need to book in advance, your ship will be full of other excited travelers to meet and dine with. Are you ready for the adventure of a lifetime? Search cruises now.

• The average age of a cruiser is younger

  The average cruising age in 2024 is expected to be 46. That means whether you’re older or younger than that, there will be plenty of people your age looking to take an adult cruise in 2024. That bodes well for socializing and finding activities tailored to your interests. If you’re not into lounging by the pool the whole time, more people and excursions are designed to provide adventure, too.

• More on-the-water experiences

  More cruises are looking to expand their shipside offerings and provide more experiences. More ships are going to be swoon-worthy vacation destinations in their own right. Add in the ports, and a cruise vacation will be unforgettable.

• Bring all important documentation

  Before you get on your cruise, you’ll want to make sure you have everything you need. The most important thing is to bring all the necessary documents. That includes your ID, passport, visa, medical insurance, and credit cards. Having these in one place can make it easy to pull out anything you need on the ship or the shore.

• Bring smart casual clothing

  Adult cruises can be an elegant or casual experience. Princess Cruises has a smart casual dress code and a wide clothing range. You will want casual outfits to take shoreside (don’t forget a jacket, too) and more formal wear for dining and events. This adult cruise can allow you to dress up and let yourself shine.

A cruise is a dreamy opportunity to get away for a while and relax. It can also be your chance to see sites you’ve only dreamed of. Choose your favorite destination and spend your trip seeing the world. Selecting experiences geared toward adults can help you experience the serenity you want and the adventure you crave. Princess has it all: a day at the spa or zip-lining through the jungle.
