Embark from Florida: A Gateway to Caribbean Wonders & Beyond
Key West, as part of the Florida Keys archipelago, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. As a matter of fact, you can easily get there by taking one of the cruises that depart out of Fort Lauderdale.
Fort Lauderdale welcomes many cruise ships throughout the year at Port Everglades cruise terminals, offering a wide range of itineraries to Key West. A cruise out of Fort Lauderdale is one of the most popular ways to experience the Caribbean islands. Several of the world’s best-known cruise lines, including Celebrity Cruises, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean, and Viking Cruises, are all based in Fort Lauderdale.
But this coastal South Florida city is a worthy destination in and of itself. It is worth exploring before or after going on a cruise to Key West. Fort Lauderdale is well-known for its beaches, bars and restaurants, shopping, arts, culture, and events. There are also more than 165 miles of canals running through the city, earning it the nickname “Venice of America.” Take in the sights from a new perspective on a tour by water taxi, gondola ride, paddleboard, or even yacht.
So, if you want to relax before or after your cruise to Key West, Fort Lauderdale is the place to be.
As part of the Florida Keys archipelago, Key West is famed for its pastel-hued, conch-style houses, it’s a cruise-ship stop also accessible from the mainland via the Overseas Highway. It’s known more for its coral reefs, destinations for diving and snorkeling, than for its beaches.
On land, shopping, museums, art galleries, tours, theaters and more await you. Or you can simply relax in the sand at one of our Key West beaches, by the pool at your Key West hotel, or on Duval Street with a cocktail in hand. Visit the Museum of Art and History at the Custom House, a “must-see” when in Key West. At night, streets filled with sidewalk cafes, open-air bars, legendary pubs and world-class restaurants with island specialties come alive. Drama, musicals and comedy flourish on local stages.
Florida has the largest selection of cruise deals to Key West.
