To explore further afield, head to the Southern Caribbean on a 12-night cruise and immerse yourself in the culture of seven different islands. Snorkel through crystal-clear water, bask on white sand beaches, savor fresh seafood, and sink into the rhythm of the islands.

Discover the raw beauty of wild Patagonia, a landscape of jagged, snow-capped mountains and lichen-draped forests. From Ushuaia, spot sea lions basking on the rocks of the Beagle Channel, or hike the vast landscapes of Tierra del Fuego National Park. Observe thousands of Magellanic penguins on Magdalena Island, near Punta Arenas, or spend a day on an estancia to learn about the life of a Patagonian farmhand, followed by a feast of slow-grilled lamb and Chilean wine.

The Galapagos

Explore the awe-inspiring natural beauty of the Galapagos Islands on a seven-night March cruise, enjoying the style and comfort that only Celebrity can provide. Start your adventure in Quito before flying to the islands. Explore the red sand beaches of Rabida, swim among wild sea lions, hike volcanic trails and admire jagged landscapes and creatures found only in this remote archipelago. March is the perfect time to book a Galapagos cruise, and Celebrity’s ships are specifically designed for expeditions to this group of pristine islands.

Discover New Zealand’s lush scenery, from the snow-draped peaks of the Southern Alps to Fiordland National Park, where mountains plunge straight into the aquamarine sea. Explore the art deco charm of Napier and Dunedin’s grand Victorian architecture and Scottish heritage. Immerse yourself in Wellington’s coffee culture. Cycle through the serene Marlborough region and taste legendary wines, or join a guided hike, listening to birdsong.

The 5 best cruises from Galveston for every type of traveler

Gene Sloan

What are the best cruises from Galveston, Texas ? I've been on all the cruise ships that sail out of the fast-growing cruise port (and visited all the places they go), and I know which one I would pick: A seven-night sailing on Norwegian Cruise Line's Norwegian Prima.

I'm a big fan of this new Norwegian vessel's stylish design and upscale feel, and I love its luxurious Haven suite complex. It also offers a solid itinerary out of Galveston that visits several of my favorite ports in the Western Caribbean.

That said, a seven-night Norwegian Prima sailing out of Galveston isn't necessarily the best Galveston cruise for you.

Whether you'll have a better time on one of the other seven cruise ships that regularly sail out of Galveston will depend a lot on the type of traveler you are. The best ship for a cruise out of Galveston with your family might not be your top pick for a couple's cruise or girlfriends' getaway.

Here we list our top picks for the best cruises from Galveston for five different types of travelers.

Best for families: Allure of the Seas

cruises in march from texas

Looking for the best family cruise from Galveston? It's hard to go wrong with a sailing on Royal Caribbean 's giant Allure of the Seas.

Designed specifically to appeal to families, the world's fifth-largest cruise vessel is chock-full of more family-friendly activity zones than just about any other cruise ship at sea.

Thanks partly to its enormous size — it's 18 decks high and nearly 1,200 feet long — the 5,484-passenger Allure of the Seas has room for three separate main pool areas, a kiddie splash zone, surfing simulators, a miniature golf course, a basketball court and even a zip line. And that's just on its top decks.

Inside Allure of the Seas, you'll find all sorts of family attractions, including counselor-staffed play areas for kids, a teen club and an indoor ice skating rink. The ship also offers lots of family-friendly performances, such as ice skating shows at the rink and acrobatic and diving performances at an outdoor "Aquatheater." At the back of the ship, a New Jersey boardwalk-themed fun zone features rock-climbing walls and a hand-carved carousel.

In short, whether you have toddlers in tow or command a troop of teens and tweens, you'll find all sorts of activities to keep them squealing with delight — more than on any other ship that sails out of Galveston, including Disney Cruise Line's family-focused Disney Magic.

Allure of the Seas sails out of Galveston every Sunday on seven-night voyages to the Western Caribbean. The ship stops at Roatan, Honduras; and Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico.

Note that in November 2023, Allure of the Seas will be replaced in Galveston with Royal Caribbean's slightly larger Harmony of the Seas. The two ships, both part of Royal Caribbean's groundbreaking Oasis class of vessels , are similar. However, the newer Harmony of the Seas has a couple more bells and whistles that will get your kids excited — most notably the Ultimate Abyss, a terrifying slide that drops nine decks. (Royal Caribbean says it drops 10 decks, but don't be fooled; the line is counting a nonexistent Deck 13.)

Harmony of the Seas also has a water park area, something that has yet to be added to Allure of the Seas.

If either of those two attractions is a must-have for your next cruise out of Galveston, you'll want to book the Harmony of the Seas sailings that start in November. Harmony of the Seas will operate the same itinerary as Allure of the Seas does now.

In addition, Royal Caribbean operates a second, smaller vessel out of Galveston: The 3,602-passenger Voyager of the Seas. The ship mostly sails four- and five-night trips to Mexico.

Best for Disney fans: Disney Magic

cruises in march from texas

As noted above, our pick for the best family cruises out of Galveston are the sailings available on Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas. However, we say that with one big caveat: If your family is a Disney-obsessed family that can't imagine a vacation that isn't infused to the extreme with all things Disney, there is only one choice for your Galveston-based cruise: a voyage on Disney Magic .

Based seasonally in Galveston from December to April, Disney Magic offers the best cruises out of Galveston for the Disney fan. It is, for the record, the only Disney Cruise Line ship that sails from Galveston.

Disney Magic isn't a new ship. It dates to 1998 and is the oldest cruise ship regularly sailing out of Galveston. But it still feels modern, thanks to major makeovers in recent years.

One overhaul to Disney Magic not too long ago brought such cutting-edge features as the AquaDunk — a 37-foot-tall body slide that careens over the side of the vessel — and a new outdoor kiddie fun zone called AquaLab.

Disney Magic is also home to multiple pool areas and indoor children's zones that cover almost an entire deck, plus multiple themed restaurants that Disney fans will love. (In Disney Cruise Line tradition, passengers — and their waiters — rotate each night among three main restaurants.) The ship also has a large showroom for nightly Disney-themed shows.

Like all Disney ships, Disney Magic boasts many cabins with split bathrooms — a boon for families. That's not something you'll find on any of the other Galveston-based cruise vessels.

If you've tried Disney's newer Disney Wish or two Dream-class ships (Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream), you will notice that the 1,754-passenger Disney Magic is noticeably smaller — about 42% smaller than Disney Wish and 35% smaller than the Dream-class ships. That results in fewer and smaller attractions than the latter vessels. On the flip side, it has a much more intimate feel on board.

Related: The 3 types of Disney ships, explained

Disney Magic sails a mix of four- to six-night voyages from Galveston to Mexico. Shorter voyages typically visit Progreso, Mexico, while longer sailings add a stop in Cozumel.

Fares for off-peak sailings on Disney Magic often start around $800 per person for a four-night trip — significantly higher on a per-night basis than the lowest-cost sailings on many of the other ships sailing out of Galveston.

In other words, you'll pay a premium for that Disney magic.

Best for budget travelers: Carnival Breeze

cruises in march from texas

Carnival Cruise Line 's Carnival Breeze is the Galveston-based ship to pick when you're looking for a quick and affordable getaway — something that isn't a big commitment and won't break the bank.

Based in Galveston year-round, the 11-year-old vessel operates short four- and five-night voyages to the Western Caribbean that are often on sale for under $500 per person or less. For off-peak travel, we sometimes see five-night sailings for sale for around $300 per person — or just $60 a night. This is a third of the cost of similar five-night sailings on Disney Magic.

Remember, the rates mentioned for Carnival Breeze above are not just for your room but for meals on the ship, too.

For would-be Galveston cruisers, Carnival Breeze serves as a sort of "test the port" ship. Its short sailings and low pricing mean you're not out a lot in time or money if you don't love the experience. It caters heavily to first-time cruisers, as well as Texas locals and Southerners who can book on short notice and drive to the port for a quickie escape.

One of three ships in the line's Dream class that date to the late 2000s and early 2010s, the 3,690-passenger Carnival Breeze is no longer the newest or snazziest ship in the Carnival fleet. At around 130,000 tons, it's about 29% smaller than Carnival's newer Excel-class ships and has fewer venues, from bars and restaurants to entertainment spaces.

Related: The 8 types of Carnival ships, explained

That said, Carnival Breeze still has a huge amount to offer for all sorts of travelers, from couples to families with kids. The ship was, notably, the first Carnival ship to feature a 4D "thrill theater" and one of the first Carnival ships with a ropes course, both attractions that appeal heavily to teens and tweens.

Carnival Breeze also offers a water park with waterslides on its top decks, a miniature golf course, a sports court for basketball and volleyball, and multiple pools.

Interior venues on Carnival Breeze include a comedy club, piano bar, casino and showroom for big production shows. The dining options are similar to what you'll find on many Carnival ships, including an extra-charge steakhouse and Italian eatery, Cucina Del Capitano, as well as no-extra-charge main restaurants. It also has a sushi restaurant and a version of Carnival's Caribbean-inspired watering hole, RedFrog Pub.

Most Carnival Breeze sailings out of Galveston stop at Cozumel, with some adding a stop at Costa Maya, as well.

Carnival has two other vessels based year-round in Galveston: Carnival Vista and Carnival Dream. Both ships operate longer, generally more expensive sailings. Carnival Vista mostly sails seven-night trips out of Galveston, while Carnival Dream alternates between six- and eight-night voyages out of the Texas port.

Best for luxury lovers: Norwegian Prima

cruises in march from texas

There are no luxury-focused cruise lines, such as Silversea Cruises or Seabourn Cruise Line , sailing out of Galveston. Still, you can get a luxury cruise experience on a voyage from Galveston by sailing on the one mainstream vessel based in the city that has a separate "ship-within-a-ship" luxury zone: Norwegian Cruise Line 's new Norwegian Prima .

Hands down, the 3,215-passenger ship offers the best Galveston cruises for luxury lovers.

Unveiled in 2022, Norwegian Prima is the first of a new class of Norwegian vessel that the line has designed to be "elevated," in its words, as compared to earlier Norwegian ships. That is, it's designed to be more upscale.

The upscale turn included loading Norwegian Prima with an unusually large variety of suites (13 categories in all), including what the line says is the largest three-bedroom suites of any recently unveiled cruise vessel. If it's swanky digs you're after (and you have the money to spend), you'll find plenty of options on this ship.

Notably, the entire back of Norwegian Prima is devoted to an upscale luxury enclave for well-heeled travelers called The Haven. Rising eight decks high, it's home to 107 of the aforementioned suites, a sprawling private indoor lounge area, private outdoor lounge and pool areas, and a private restaurant — all exclusively for the use of those who pay up for one of its suites.

Related: The best cruise lines for elegance and exclusivity

Outside of The Haven, the entire ship has a more elegant feel than you'll find on other Norwegian ships. It has more of the feel of the ships you find in the fleets of Norwegian's higher-end sister brands, Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises — albeit on a bigger scale.

Alas, Norwegian Prima only is based in Galveston seasonally for the winter, from December to March. It offers seven-night sailings to the Western Caribbean with calls in Roatan, Honduras; Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico; and Harvest Caye, Belize.

Best for retirees: Regal Princess

cruises in march from texas

Looking for a cruise out of Galveston that isn't jammed full of families with children? Look no further than the sailings out of the city on Princess Cruises ' Regal Princess.

Unlike the other major cruise ships that sail out of Galveston each year — operated by family-focused Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian and Disney — Regal Princess wasn't built with families in mind as the core customer. As is the case with all Princess ships, it's more of a ship geared toward middle-aged and older travelers without kids, including lots of retirees.

Notably, the 3,600-passenger Regal Princess lacks nearly all the gee-whiz attractions for families found on the other ships that sail out of Galveston. You won't find big waterslides, kiddie splash zones, zip lines or go-kart tracks on this ship.

For the most part, the top decks of Regal Princess only offer pools, whirlpools and sunning areas, as is typical for Princess ships. As a result, it draws far fewer families than the vessels above and caters more to an older crowd of mostly couples.

Related: The best cruises for seniors who love to travel

Regal Princess is based in Galveston on a seasonal basis from November to March. It operates some of the longest sailings from the Texas port, including 10- and 11-night trips to Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, Honduras, Belize and Mexico. They're the sort of sailings that generally appeal to a retired crowd because these trips require a long time away from home.

The shortest sailings that the 10-year-old Princess Cruises ship operates out of Galveston are seven nights in length.

Bottom line

Galveston, Texas, offers a relatively wide range of choices for cruise ships and itineraries. Five different cruise lines sail four- to 11-night voyages that visit such Western Caribbean ports as Mexico, Belize, Honduras, Jamaica and the Cayman Islands.

What is the best cruise from Galveston for you? That'll depend on your personal interests and travel style, as there are cruises from Galveston that appeal to everyone, including family travelers, budget travelers and retirees.

THE BEST CRUISES FROM TEXAS

Published on June 5, 2020

Royal Caribbean's Instagram for Live Updates

Did you know the Lone Star State is a gateway to top-rated shores in the Caribbean and Mexico? We’ve put together a guide to some of the best destinations you can visit on a cruise from Texas.

Texas is famous for a lot of things — cowboy boots, rodeos, live music, and some of the best barbecue in the United States, just to name a few. But most people don’t realize it’s also a great jumping off point for anyone interested in exploring the sun-soaked shores of Mexico and the Caribbean. The city of Galveston, Texas — a lively hotspot on the Gulf of Mexico — serves as the home port for thrill-filled cruise ships — each headed to beautiful tropical destinations like Costa Maya, Cozumel, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and more. From shorter tropical getaways that pack plenty of new discoveries into just a few days, to longer adventures that bring you to iconic Caribbean ports and some off-the-beaten-path gems, Royal Caribbean offers plenty of great itineraries to choose from if you’re looking for an unforgettable cruise from Texas. Keep reading for more information on some of the best spots you can visit in the Caribbean on a sailing from Galveston.

1. Georgetown, Grand Cayman®

Grand Cayman Couple Walking on the Seven Mile Beach

Grand Cayman encompasses everything that comes to mind when you think of a stunning Caribbean paradise. It has a big selection of picture-perfect, award-winning beaches — including the iconic Seven Mile Beach — fantastic snorkeling, a great restaurant scene that serves up world class island fare made by top international chefs, and warm hospitality. It’s one of the most popular ports to visit among guests sailing on cruises from Texas, and it should be right at the top of your Caribbean wander list.

2. Roatan, Honduras

Pier with Water Taxis at the West End Village,  Roatan, Honduras

Roatan is known around the world for its unparalleled dive sites, but this gorgeous chain of islands off Central America’s northern coast offers plenty in addition to great undersea adventures. If you love a good hike, you’ll find lots of rugged trails through lush rainforests and jungles, plus mangrove forests you can kayak around. Roatan is also famous for its incredible food scene and its vibrant culture. It’s home to a large population of Garifuna — a community that traces its ancestry to Africa, the Caribbean islands, and native Arawak people — and you can immerse yourself in some of that rich heritage during your visit. Sail Roatan on a cruise from Texas and discover a destination brimming with gorgeous landscapes and unique cultural surprises.

3. Cozumel, Mexico

Family Beach Sports Kayaking, Cozumel, Mexico

There are so many reasons to add Mexico to your travel list. It’s full of vibrant culture, captivating ancient sites, amazing food, and beautiful natural wonders. One of the most popular destinations in Mexico is Cozumel , a stunning island just off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. Many cruises from Texas make a stop at this amazing destination, where you can dive deep into history and culture at the San Gervasio Maya ruins, or take adventure under the waves on snorkel and diving excursions at Chankanaab National Park. If you’re more about lazing the day away on a sunbaked beach, it doesn’t get better than the white-sand shores at Dzul-Ha and Playa Bonita.

4. Falmouth, Jamaica

Martha Brae River Falmouth Jamaica

Another popular destination you can sail to on a Caribbean cruise from Texas is Falmouth, Jamaica . Life at this laid-back island port moves at a slower pace. You’ll have your pick of beaches — like the world-famous Chukka Beach and its quieter, more secluded counterpart, Burwood Beach. If you’re craving a bit of outdoor adventure, set out on an excursion to Ocho Rios — home to the iconic Dunn’s River Falls. Or hang out in Water Square, the buzzing heart of Falmouth, where you can listen to live reggae music in the street and unwind at plenty of great bars and cafes serving delicious jerk chicken, refreshing tropical cocktails, and all the island vibes Jamaica is known for.

5. Costa Maya, Mexico

Mexico Costa Maya Blue Waters in the Jungle

Located on the southeastern coast of the Yucatan peninsula, this beautiful destination is home to great beach clubs, vibrant nightlife and wild natural beauty. And though it may feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it’s easy to reach this tropical hotspot on a cruise from Texas. Whether you choose to spend the day relaxing on a gorgeous beach, like Mahahual, sipping margaritas at one of the many seaside bars located just off the pier, venturing out to discover cenotes hidden deep in the jungle, or diving the world-famous Banco Chinchorro — the biggest coral atoll in the northern hemisphere — you’ll find there’s no shortage of ways to spend your day in Costa Maya .

6. Key West, Florida

Key West Florida Local Home

Less than 200 miles south of vibrant Miami, Key West invites visitors to move a little slower, loosen up, and go with the flow. This idyllic destination checks all the boxes — you’ll find plenty of history to get lost in as you cycle past centuries-old pastel-colored estates, and lots of outdoor adventures like snorkeling, diving, fishing and more. And if you’re looking for good food and drinks, hit scenic Mallory Square or buzzing Duval Street, where finding a slice of great key lime pie and the perfect piña colada is a given.

Like what you’ve read so far? Keep in mind that these are just a few of the incredible places Royal Caribbean can take you to when you book a cruise from Texas. Check out all the different itineraries available here — you’ll find plenty to fit your schedule, from short getaways to weeklong adventures.

Nikki Haley ends presidential campaign with 'no regrets,' ceding GOP nomination to Trump

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley dropped out of the 2024 presidential race Wednesday after losing every state but Vermont in Super Tuesday's primary contests, ceding the Republican nomination to former President Donald Trump.

Haley's decision to end her campaign effectively kicks off the general election, with Trump and President Joe Biden taking unofficial command of their parties early in primary season after a string of victories.

"I am filled with the gratitude for the outpouring of support we've received from all across our great country, but the time has now come to suspend my campaign," Haley said in a speech Wednesday morning. "I said I wanted Americans to have their voices heard — I have done that. I have no regrets. And although I will no longer be a candidate, I will not stop using my voice for the things I believe in."

Haley didn't announce an endorsement during her remarks Wednesday. Instead, she encouraged Trump, who is close to having the delegates needed to win the GOP nomination, to earn the support of Republicans and independent voters who backed her.

"It is now up to Donald Trump to earn the votes of those in our party and beyond it who did not support him, and I hope he does that," she said. "At its best, politics is about bringing people into your cause, not turning them away. And our conservative cause badly needs more people. This is now his time for choosing."

Haley said that being a private citizen is “privilege enough in itself” and that she looks forward to “enjoying in all likelihood” that Trump will be the Republican presidential nominee.

“I congratulate him and wish him well. I wish anyone well who would be America’s president,” she said. “Our country is too precious to let our differences divide us.”

In a statement on Haley’s withdrawal from the Republican presidential primary, President Joe Biden acknowledged the “courage” it took to “speak the truth” about her GOP opponent.

“It takes a lot of courage to run for President — that’s especially true in today’s Republican Party, where so few dare to speak the truth about Donald Trump,” he said. “Nikki Haley was willing to speak the truth about Trump: about the chaos that always follows him, about his inability to see right from wrong, about his cowering before Vladimir Putin.”

Biden also urged her supporters to support his re-election campaign.

“Donald Trump made it clear he doesn’t want Nikki Haley’s supporters. I want to be clear: There is a place for them in my campaign,” Biden said. “I know there is a lot we won’t agree on. But on the fundamental issues of preserving American democracy, on standing up for the rule of law, on treating each other with decency and dignity and respect, on preserving NATO and standing up to America’s adversaries, I hope and believe we can find common ground.”

In response to news of Haley dropping out of the race, Trump slammed his former challenger in a statement.

“Nikki Haley got TROUNCED last night, in record setting fashion, despite the fact that Democrats, for reasons unknown, are allowed to vote in Vermont, and various other Republican Primaries,” Trump said, referring to her only Super Tuesday victory in Vermont.

Trump then accused Haley of raising most of her money from Democrats and urged her supporters to get behind his presidential bid.

“At this point, I hope she stays in the “race” and fights it out until the end!” he said. “I’d like to thank my family, friends, and the Great Republican Party for helping me to produce, by far, the most successful Super Tuesday in HISTORY, and would further like to invite all of the Haley supporters to join the greatest movement in the history of our Nation.”

NBC News has projected a near-sweep for Trump in Tuesday's contests, with blowout results in every state except blue Vermont, where Haley won the state's delegates by a more than 4 percentage point margin, with about 96% of the expected votes in.

The Trump campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in an interview on Fox Business that she hoped Haley would endorse Trump "considering again that voters and states across this country have made their choice very clear.”

"It is beyond time for Nikki Haley to get out of this race and to unify around the president," she said. "He has been saying this for weeks, really for months. And so we encourage her to do just that, to adhere to the will of Republican voters.”

But as she turned hard against Trump in 2024 — and suffered a string of double-digit defeats in the early states, including in her home state of South Carolina — Haley resisted mounting pressure to drop out of the race, repeatedly insisting that more Americans deserved a choice.

Haley, a hand-picked member of Trump’s Cabinet from 2017 to 2018, was the first major Republican to launch a challenge against the former president more than a year ago. Her campaign had a slow start, but she gained momentum after multiple strong debate performances last summer and fall. 

“I’m not giving up this fight when a majority of Americans disapprove of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden,” she said at her campaign’s watch party on the night of the South Carolina primary, adding that other states “have the right to a real choice, not a Soviet style election with only one candidate.”

But Republican primary voters made their choice, and Haley lost to Trump in all but one primary, Vermont, on Super Tuesday. Her only other victory was the low-turnout GOP primary in Washington, D.C. 

While she kept her criticism of Trump measured for months in the originally crowded primary field, Haley upped her rhetoric after the New Hampshire primary — where she had one of her best showings with 43% — and the contest became a two-person race. 

Haley told NBC last month that the former president was “diminished” and “unhinged,” explaining away her past support for Trump by bluntly saying “he is not the same person he was in 2016.”

By the end of her campaign, Haley was framing the primary in stark terms. “This is about, where exactly is the Republican Party gonna go?” she told rally attendees in Richmond, Virginia, on Feb. 29. Haley repeatedly brought up the party’s losses under Trump’s leadership and told her supporters that he “can’t win a general” election.

Presidential Candidate Nikki Haley Campaigns In Texas

And she touted surveys like the Wall Street Journal’s December poll — which showed her with a big lead against Biden and Trump stuck in a closer race — at virtually every campaign event, framing herself as a more electable alternative for the GOP. 

“I am giving you every red flag I possibly can about the direction that the country is going in. Now I just need people to hear it. I need states that are voting to act on it,” she said late last month to reporters in Grand Rapids, Michigan. “And I need to see that we can stop this sinking ship before it takes off.”

Although several 2024 GOP candidates gave their support for Trump after withdrawing from the race, Haley said last weekend that she no longer feels bound by a pledge she made to the Republican National Committee to support the party’s nominee. 

“I think I’ll make what decision I want to make, but that’s not something I’m thinking about,” Haley said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” about whether she will endorse Trump. 

With her message of “new generational leadership,” Haley gained support from independents and even some Democrats — which led Trump and his allies to accuse her of not being conservative enough to be the party’s nominee. 

“Not one person can tell you how I wasn’t conservative,” she said to reporters on Jan. 19th. “So you can go and say that I’m moderate. Show me where I’m moderate because I’m not.”

One of the issues that opened her up to this criticism was abortion, on which she struck a softer tone than most of the other GOP candidates running for president.

“As much as I’m pro-life, I don’t judge anyone for being pro-choice, and I don’t want them to judge me for being pro-life,” she said. “Let’s find consensus. … We don’t need to divide America over this issue anymore.”

While she called herself “unapologetically pro-life,” she long remained vague on what, if any, kind of federal abortion ban she would support, blaming the lack of support from 60 senators and calling instead for “consensus.”

“Can’t we say let’s ban late-term abortions? Can’t we say let’s encourage adoptions and good quality adoptions? Can’t we say that no doctor or nurse that doesn’t believe in abortion shouldn’t have to perform it?” she said in December in Davenport, Iowa. “Can’t we say that contraception should be accessible? And can’t we say that no state law should say to a woman who’s had an abortion that she’s going to jail or getting the death penalty. Let’s start there.” 

Ultimately, her moderate- and independent-heavy coalition was not enough to overcome Trump’s strength in the Republican Party. 

Before resigning in 2017 to join the Trump administration, Haley was the first female minority governor in the country in her home state of South Carolina. She previously served three terms in the South Carolina House of Representatives and before that was an accountant, which she often touted on the campaign trail.

5 Cruises To Take For Spring Break

5 Cruises To Take For Spring Break

If you’re interested in thinking outside the box this year regarding your spring break vacation , consider rounding up yourself, your family, or your girlfriends for a 5-star cruise trip.  

Nowadays, spring break cruises possibly offer more than hotels —given easy access to beachy locations, an array of bars and restaurants on board, and, depending on the location, water sports. What’s most appealing about cruises is there’s something for everyone: the children can enjoy waterslides and roller coasters, while the adults can soak up the sun and consume delicious craft cocktails or go out dancing, all on one ship. However, it’s important to note that specific spring break cruises usually occur during the slower travel months of March and April. 

However, given its popularity, spring break travel Bahamas , Caribbean, and Mexico cruises during peak school holiday weeks can be more expensive and crowded than in the surrounding weeks. Check out our list of the five of the top cruises you should consider for your spring break vacation . 

Royal Caribbean :

Even though college spring breakers usually gravitate toward Royal Caribbean’s shorter cruises, given their school schedules, families and couples find their programming from the Caribbean and the Bahamas just as appealing, given all of the options of the ships at sea like Harmony of the Seas, Icon of the Seas, Oasis of the Seas, Symphony of the Seas and Wonder of the Seas. All the mega-ships boast kid’s clubs and teen hangouts, helping parents get a break. These ships have plenty of fun activities like waterslides, escape rooms, mini-golf, rock climbing walls, and carousel rides. The entire family can enjoy shows that include Broadway musicals, ice skating performances, and acrobatic events. The Royal Caribbean’s two private destinations, Perfect Day at CocoCay in the Bahamas and Labadee in Haiti, offer gorgeous beaches and attractions. 

Carnival Cruise Line

This cruise line is popular because of the amazing, diverse destinations offered for a lower price point. The Carnival Cruise line sails to Bermuda, Alaska, Europe, Mexico, Hawaii, the Caribbean, Australia, and more. Their onboard activities are just as appealing, as they offer spas, sky rides, a serenity adult retreat, and gambling. The only potential downfall is that Carnival requires guests under 21 to travel with someone aged 25 or older. 

Virgin Voyages

This cruise is perfect for taking your girlfriends or significant other on, as no kids are allowed. Virgin Voyages’ ships require guests to be 18 or older to sail, and the activities on the ship have adult themes. On this cruise, you can attend a drag show and let your hair down at late-night pool parties.

Disney Cruise Line :

Consider Disney Magic or Fantasy for your upcoming vacation. Who doesn’t love Disney-themed cruises, especially parents and children? Think of this cruise to get a proper introduction to the Caribbean, as it’s a weeklong voyage throughout the Caribbean and the Bahamas. The upside for this cruise is that the options aren’t just convenient for East Coasters. The line sails ships from Galveston, New Orleans, and San Diego for family vacations to Mexico.

MSC Cruises: 

Get some fun and the sun with a quick Bahamas cruise with a posh flair on MSC Cruises’ MSC Divina, MSC Magnifica, or MSC Seashore. The ships offer three- and four-night cruises to Nassau and Ocean Cay, MSC’s private island, and attract a multinational, multilingual crowd. Also, MSC’s fares are consistently affordable relative to other cruise lines.
