Florida Cruising


If you want to go on a cruise...come to Florida.With the longest coastline in the lower 48 at over 1,350 miles Florida offers multiple choices for cruisers.  There are 5 ports in Florida that cruise ships sail from, more than any other state. Four are shown on this map and the port of Jacksonville also has limited cruise ships operating from it. 







The port of Miami is the largest cruise ship port in the world. Over 4 million people cruised from this port last year. All major cruise lines sail out of Miami.



Just up the road in Fort Lauderdale is Port Everglades



A little farther north is Port Canaveral. When you sail out of Canaveral you can see the launch towers at the Cape.



 Of course I am very biased towards the port below...the Port of Tampa




The Florida Aquarium right outside the door



Ride the streetcar to downtown Tampa or Ybor City.









Sailing out of Tampa is absolutely beautiful



Under the Skyway Bridge and out to sea...thanks to my daughter Andrea for the idea !!
