5 days, round-trip 5 Night Western Caribbean from Fort Lauderdale Cruise

About this cruise

If you don't need a long holiday but still want to get out on the water, this is a solid pick. 5 nights from Fort Lauderdale on August 1, 2026, visiting Cozumel and Disney Castaway Cay. There's a nice rhythm here: explore a port, recover at sea, do it again. You never feel rushed or restless. Snorkelling, palm trees, rum. Each stop does it a bit differently. Cozumel alone is worth the trip, Mexico's Caribbean island of Mayan mystery. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Disney Destiny joined the Disney Cruise Line's lineup in 2025. Still has that new-ship feel. A strong pick for first-timers. Not too long, not too short, and you get a taste of the routine. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. Worth booking. That's the short version.
