Floridians who enjoy cruising are in luck because the Sunshine State has plenty of ports from which to choose and plenty of cruise lines that sail out of those ports.
Specifically, Florida has six ports – Miami, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Jacksonville and Palm Beach. And Floridians can enjoy cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruises, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, and Viking Ocean Cruises, to name just a few examples.
However, some of Florida’s ports are busier and offer more cruise options than others. There is currently a Florida port that only offers one cruise line – but that may be changing.
About Jaxport: This port in Jacksonville only offers one cruise line – Carnival and the offerings are often limited to trips to the Bahamas. And while traveling to the Bahamas can be a wonderful experience, those wanting more variety might be happy to know that there may be a new option on the horizon.
Yelpers give this port 3.3 out of 5 stars, with many noting the lines are not as bad as some ports. A reviewer named Ashley wrote:
