Short Ocean Escape – Key West, Bimini Islands & Miami
About this cruise
You leave Miami on December 3, 2026 and come back 4 nights later with a tan and a few good stories. The route visits Key West and Bimini. It splits nicely: 2 days seeing places and 1 days doing nothing at all. Old harbours, fresh lobster, and autumn leaves if you time it right. Classic New England stuff. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Scarlet Lady takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 12 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you're new to cruising, this length is ideal. Long enough to relax, short enough to not over-commit. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Miami has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. While everyone else deals with the December cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
