Hello there, Monique!
Thanks for your question and welcome aboard! Looking for a cruise itinerary is so much fun, but I know it can also feel a little overwhelming. I'm happy to help you find the perfect option!
When you arrive at the
Disney Cruise Line website (I recommend using a computer for this, not a mobile device) you'll see a bar across the top of the page that allows you to search for a cruise using several filters.
I built a search for cruises departing in October 2023, sailing to the Caribbean, and found a few options! The sailing I would choose is the 7-Night Eastern Caribbean Cruise from Port Canaveral, which is offered on two dates in October this year. Currently, I see all four stateroom types available for this sailing, so you should have some good options!
My family has actually cruised this same itinerary, so I can say with confidence that it is a lovely one! In Tortola, we did
A Day at the Baths as our Port Adventure. The hike to the beach led us through some fascinating caves and rock structures, and it was the perfect amount of adventure for our kids who were 6 and 9 at the time. We spent our day on
Castaway Cay just relaxing and playing on the beach, much to the delight of our kids. Personally, my favorite Port Adventure on Castaway Cay is
Parasailing, which is surprisingly relaxing!
There's another magical benefit to cruising in October...it's
Halloween on the High Seas! It looks like the itinerary I recommended is on the list to celebrate with some spooky fun, including themed activities, extra treats and entertainment, and our favorite pals dressed in their own Halloween costumes. Don't forget to pack your own costumes to celebrate with them!
Monique, I hope this information helps you dive in and start planning! If you have more questions (staterooms, dining, kids clubs, you name it!) you're welcome to
pop your message in a bottle for me here and I'll head right back over to help you.
Keep moving forward!
Amanda
