Cruising & Sailing Information

Affordable Weekend Getaways? Romantic Cruises!


If you are looking for affordable weekend getaways, romantic cruises may just be the answer. Unless you are living in the middle of a desert, there will undoubtedly be cruises of some nature within driving distance of your home.

Cruising has long been associated with romance. There's nothing quite like being on the water, watching as the world passes you by in tranquility. It does not matter whether that water is from a river, a lake, or a sea - romance and cruising go hand in hand.

An evening sunset cruise can cost less than - and be more memorable than - an evening "on the town". Make that a dinner sunset cruise, and you have the makings of an unforgettable and very affordable romantic getaway. And these types of cruises are available all over North America!

Extend your cruising pleasure with a river cruise for a day or two perhaps along the St. Lawrence River or down the Mississippi. Small boat charters are also available for those who choose to cruise by themselves. A houseboat rental cruising a lake or river near you can be an adventure filled romantic experience that you will not soon forget!

To add even more luster to your romantic getaway, how about a two or three day cruise to the Bahamas aboard one of the magnificent cruise ships. Major cruise lines are recognizing that many potential cruisers are looking for shorter and more frequent vacations and are adding two and three day cruise itineraries.

For example, there are three and four day Baja cruises provided by Carnival out of Long Beach, California. Carnival also offers two day cruises from Norfolk and New York as well as three day cruises from San Diego.

Perhaps a two or three day tall ships cruise is more to your liking? How about a paddle wheeler cruise? Even catamaran sailboat operators can provide a fantastic cruise experience for your romantic getaway.

No matter what type of romantic weekend cruise getaway you choose, you're sure to experience an unforgettable vacation. The only problem may be that it proves to be too short!
