Wiesbaden, August 26, 2013 – Unspoilt
white sand beaches and turquoise water, colourful schools of fish, Mayan
temples and lush tropical forests – in the coming winter season 2013/14,
Norwegian Cruise Line’s modern fleet stands ready to take guests to the prime
Caribbean attractions and more. Departing from Miami ,
Tampa , New Orleans ,
New York and Boston ,
the cruises that range from 2 to 15 nights, offer guests the chance to combine
the hustle and bustle of a big city with relaxed island-hopping in the Caribbean . And Norwegian Cruise Line’s own Freestyle
Cruising® contributes
to this relaxed experience, thanks for example to Freestyle Dining with no
fixed dining times or pre-assigned seating. A varied activity programme on
board with sports, spa and world-class entertainment as well as a huge range of
shore excursions ensure that every guest can enjoy a holiday according to his
or her preferences.
Among the line’s nine ships sailing the Caribbean is the brand
new Norwegian Getaway which will start her inaugural season on February 8, 2014
and offer 7-night cruises from Miami to the Eastern Caribbean year-round. Being developed as “Miami’s
ship”, Norwegian Getaway will feature ground-breaking entertainment, among
others with the first GRAMMY®Experience at sea, The Illusionarium,
an all-new dining and entertainment experience and the musical Legally Blonde,
along with 26 dining choices, an Aqua Park with five thrilling water slides and
a variety of flexible accommodation choices ranging from Studios specially
designed for solo travellers, to balcony and family staterooms and opulent
suites in The Haven, the ultimate in luxury.
Other options include the line’s biggest ship to date, Norwegian
Epic, which sets sail from Miami for 7-night
cruises to the Eastern and Western Caribbean
from November 2013 to April 2014. Longer cruises from Miami
on board Norwegian Sun to the Southern Caribbean are also available along with
