Subtropical Drift – Port Canaveral & Bahamas from New York

About this cruise

You board in New York on July 19, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Port Canaveral, CocoCay and Nassau, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. You do all the exploring first, then the last few days are at sea. It's like a built-in wind-down. White sand, shallow turquoise flats, and easy island days. The Bahamas keep it simple. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Nassau, Colonial charm meets Caribbean colour. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 17 restaurants on Oasis Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. New York itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
