8 Night Bahamas -Philadelphia

Nassau cruise port is one of the most visited in the Caribbean, with up to six ships docking at Prince George Wharf on a busy day. The port sits directly on Bay Street in downtown Nassau, so you're essentially stepping off the ship and into the city.

Great Stirrup Cay is Norwegian Cruise Line's private island in the Berry Islands chain of the Bahamas, about 120 miles northwest of Nassau. The island has been NCL's exclusive beach destination since 1977, making it one of the oldest private cruise islands in the Caribbean.

Orlando's cruise port is Port Canaveral, located on Florida's Space Coast about 45 miles east of the city. It's one of the busiest cruise ports in the world, and almost entirely an embarkation port.

Jacksonville is a sprawling north Florida city that serves as a smaller, less congested alternative to the state's bigger cruise ports. The JAXPORT cruise terminal sits on the St. Johns River, about 20 minutes from downtown Jacksonville and roughly 15 minutes from Jacksonville International Airport.
