Celebrity Cruises Celebrity Equinox
Join your bear buddies and friends on remarkable and memorable BearCruise to Western Caribbean aboard the Premium Celebrity Equinox. Explore the best of the Western Caribbean with BearCruise as we sail to four stunning islands. Enjoy exploring the crystal clear waters and underwater scenery of Cozumel, the gay friendly town of Key west, and swimming with the stingrays in Grand Cayman. This cruise inspires a feeling of getting away...way away.
On a Caribbean cruise, life's a beach—actually hundreds—some long and straight, some tucked between cliffs, some brilliant white, some volcanic black. But our Caribbean cruises are more than beaches.
Dive and snorkel coral reefs teeming with tropical fish—the Great Maya Reef is the largest living thing in the West. We'll take you climbing up waterfalls and descending into caves. Play golf on a lush green course, ride horseback through turquoise waters, and swim with friendly dolphins. We take history buffs to ancient Maya temples and Spanish colonial churches.
Since pirate days, bargain hunters have come to trade. Today, cruises to the Caribbean include fashion and fragrances, designer jewelry and Mexican silver, Cuban cigars, even blue Delft figurines.
Foodies love our Caribbean cruise vacations, where chefs fuse traditional dishes with local fruits for enchanting flavors. Enjoy mahi-mahi, grouper, kingfish, red and yellowtail snapper, and conch from the iconic shell. Get chicken, pork, and duck served fried, grilled, or roasted. For lunch on the go, grab some hearty empanadas, and in Mexico, don't miss the guacamole and margaritas.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida
In the 1800s, William Lauderdale built a fort. Today, 16 million visitors come each year for miles of broad white sandy beaches, dozens of lush green golf courses, and Caribbean cruises from Fort Lauderdale. Stroll the famous beachfront promenade, just 15 minutes from the port, and plunge into the warm Atlantic.
Head downtown to Las Olas Boulevard, paralleling New River, to sip lattes in outdoor cafés, shop chic boutiques, and catch concerts at the performing arts center. Stop at Stranahan House, the city's oldest structure, built in 1901 as a trading post and preserved as a museum, or explore a whole village of historic buildings at History Fort Lauderdale. Join a Segway tour along the river or a waterborne cruise of Millionaire's Row.
Key West, Florida
Spain, Cuba and the Bahamas inform this cultural potpourri – not forgetting key lime pie! Snorkel at Coral Reef State Park, or visit Hemingway’s house to see descendants of his 6-toed cats. Ernest Hemingway made wild, colorful Key West his home, and you will want to do the same. Home to modern-day adventurers, artists and poets, the island's charming Old Town teems with restaurants, bars and unique shops. Add pristine coral reefs, coconut palms and a laid-back attitude that's truly contagious, and it's easy to see why so many visitors to Key West never leave.
Costa Maya, Mexico
Best known for its tropical jungles, idyllic beaches and translucent lagoons, Costa Maya is a dream destination for outdoor recreation. You'll find everything from snorkelling to jungle treks. Costa Maya boasts beautiful beaches on the Caribbean Sea, which is ideal for divers and snorkelers alike who enjoy exploring the beautiful Banco Chinchorro coral reef that lies just off the coast. History buffs will surely love exploring the lesser-known Mayan ruins, Cacchoben and Kohunlich; meanwhile there's something for everyone at the new shopping mall, which, while great for shopping, also features a central plaza with saltwater pools and 'swim-up' bars.
Cozumel, Mexico
The ‘Island of Swallows’ is as rich in Mayan culture as in wildlife. Glass-clear waters around coral reefs offer you a world-class encounter with majestic eagle rays. Amid the largest coral reef in the West, this Caribbean island lures anglers, divers, snorkelers, and beachgoers. Fish the flats or head out to blue water to hunt for big game—mahi-mahi, marlin, sailfish, and more. Bring your dive card with you on your cruise to Cozumel and witness all the natural wonders waiting below the surface, like neon tropical fish, swaying sea fans, and vibrant coral colonies. Or, go snorkeling to see the show without a dive card. Curl up on the beach in a hammock with a cold one. At Playa Mia, you can even fly down Twin Twister waterslides.
George Town, Grand Cayman
Grand Cayman’s largest island is the perfect spot to soak up the sun and unwind. At Stingray City, you can snorkel, scuba dive, or handfeed friendly stingrays. No destination blends global finance with the Caribbean lifestyle quite like the Cayman Islands. This upscale destination offers world-class restaurants, designer boutiques, and duty-free shopping, plus white sand beaches, brilliant blue waters, and teeming coral reefs. Enjoy postcard views of George Town, Seven Mile Beach, and West Bay from the custom-designed Cayman Explorer. You can step down easily into shallow waters to interact with the welcoming stingrays.
