Destinations where Our Southeast U.S. Cruises Travel
Our Southeast U.S. cruises explore some of the most scenic and historically significant waterways in the country. Sail through the Chesapeake Bay, cruise the protected Intracoastal Waterway, and experience the vibrant coastal cities of the Southeast. Popular routes include journeys between Charleston and Amelia Island on the Southeast Sea Islands Cruise, Florida Gulf Coast itineraries, and cruises visiting historic ports along the Mid-Atlantic and southern East Coast.
Intracoastal Waterway
Cruise along the Intracoastal Waterway, a protected network of rivers, bays, and canals that winds past quiet marshlands, charming coastal towns, and scenic waterfront homes. Along the way, watch for coastal birds like herons, egrets, and ospreys, as well as dolphins and other native wildlife that thrive in these sheltered waterways. This smooth, East Coast inland passage is a relaxing way to experience the natural beauty of the Southeast.
Everglades & 10,000 Islands
Explore the beauty of the Florida Everglades and the 10,000 Islands, a remote maze of mangroves, waterways, and untouched wilderness. Aboard a covered pontoon, navigate the serene Faka Union Canal and coastal labyrinth while watching for dolphins, manatees, alligators, and native birds. Along the way, local guides share fascinating insights into the region’s ecology, wildlife, and history, bringing this remarkable ecosystem to life.
Dry Tortugas
Seventy miles west of Key West lies Dry Tortugas National Park, one of North America’s most remote national parks. Surrounded by the Gulf, it is renowned for pristine beauty, abundant marine life, and pirate legends. At its heart stands Fort Jefferson, the Western Hemisphere’s largest brick masonry structure. Arrive by scenic seaplane over turquoise waters, then explore the fort, relax on tranquil beaches, or snorkel vibrant coral reefs.
Colonial Williamsburg
Step back in time in Colonial Williamsburg, the world’s largest living history museum. Stroll through restored streets, meet costumed interpreters, and experience daily life in 18th-century America. As Virginia’s capital, Williamsburg was a center of revolutionary activity, where colonial leaders debated independence, challenged British authority, and gathered at sites like the Raleigh Tavern in the years leading up to the Revolutionary War.
Featured Ports on Our Southeast U.S. Cruises
Key West, FL
As the southernmost point in the continental U.S., it’s no wonder Key West is an absolute paradise. Once a haven for pirates, it quickly became one of the wealthiest cities per capita in America due to its lucrative salvage industry. Today, its colorful streets, Hemingway’s former home, and century-old bars capture the rebellious, free-spirited charm that has attracted artists, writers, and everyone in between for generations.
Savannah, GA
Steeped in Southern charm and rich history, Savannah welcomes visitors with moss-draped oak trees, elegant squares, and beautifully preserved architecture. Stroll along the lively River Street waterfront, explore historic landmarks, or savor the city's renowned cuisine while experiencing one of the South's most beloved destinations.
Charleston, SC
Charleston’s cobblestone streets and colorful homes transport you back to the past. As one of America’s oldest cities, its history is filled with tales of colonial grandeur, Revolutionary battles, and Civil War turmoil. Jasmine and other flora are found throughout the historic districts, decorating centuries-old churches and preserved mansions standing as timeless reminders of its historical impact.
Baltimore, MD
Known as the birthplace of the national anthem, the city’s history is tightly woven with American identity.
