Miles of sandy beaches, lively outdoor events, and a charming web of waterways help to make Fort Lauderdale a relaxed, vacation capital of Florida. The excitement is palpable, as cruise ships and gleaming yachts gather in the harbor ahead of adventures and luxury journeys across the waves.

There are no long lines, and the process, which includes security, a health check, and final registration, is typically quick and efficient. Upon boarding, you can enjoy lunch and drinks while your suite is prepared, with luggage generally delivered to your stateroom later.
