What is your favorite cruise port to leave from??

My favorite is Miami with NY a close second, both are awesome ports

I have only been three cruises and all I am certain of is that I did not enjoy Miami.

 

Sailing out of San Juan on the cruise was incredible, it felt like an invasion moving past those forts!

I loved sailing out of NY and sailing down the Manhatten skyline and by the Statue of Liberty.

While our favorite Departure Port is Charleston, SC, none of our favorite ships or cruise lines depart from there. :(

So far, Galveston is my favorite. It is very organized and the employees are friendly. I also have family in Houston so it makes it easy to visit with them before heading out.

I loved leaving out of Baltimore! Very convenient since i live in Delaware and embarkation took only about 30 minutes to check in and get on the ship! Would totally do that port again!

Leaving NYC from Manhattan with the NY skyline, Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, and then going under the Varrazano Bridge with the ship blasting her horn and everyone letting out a whoop as our cruise vacation has started.

 

My number two would be Venice, Italy. The ships tower over the buildings of that special one-of-a-kind city. That will be changing as they are trying to ban the mega ships from using that port. The ban started in January, but a judge may be revoking it.

I have to say Civitavechio only because that means I've been to Rome. We're lucky to live in south Florida and be close to four major ports, they all have their good and bad points, but best of all is they all have cruise ships waiting to take me away.

New York!

 

Every time we sail from NY it is getting quiet on a ship when we pass Ground Zero...

 

and it always takes your breath away when you sail by Statue of Liberty.

Here is a photo from our Venice Sail Away two years ago...we were on the maiden voyage of the Breeze. It is not the best photo as we were in an aft wrap on the wrong side of the ship, so when we passed St Marks square, I had issues with the bright sun. You pass by some of the oldest churches and buildings in Europe.....We will never forget the sail away though...absolutely incredible!!!

 

 

That is lovely.

 

I liked sailing from Mobile a lot.

But now it's New Orleans.

We have sailed from Mia , FLL , Port Canaveral. Our next cruise will take us to San Juan . First time. so far .I have to say for us we enjoy Mia South Beach , Biscayne Bay Side Market . The best so far. Next would be Port Canaveral . We stayed at the Radisson Inn a great start to a vacation . Coming from the great white north anywhere warm is great. Cruising addicted.:D
