As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, many cruise lines were forced to shut down or suspend operations for a while.
But as the world starts getting back to normal, many cruise lines are offering super low prices to attract new customers and help bounce back after the pandemic, making 2022 the perfect year to set sail on the high seas.
Whether traveling alone, with your spouse, or with your whole family, here are four of the top cruise destinations to travel to in 2022.
1. Indonesia
Have you ever dreamed of snorkeling on a secluded island? Or going for a dip under a picturesque waterfall? If so, it’s hard to find a better vacation destination than Indonesia.
Home to some of the best beaches and jungle views in the world, there is no shortage of things to do or places to see in Indonesia. With thousands of islands waiting to be explored, you could visit Indonesia several times and never see the same place twice.
2. Australia
Australia is another dream destination for many travelers due to its breathtaking scenery, both on land and underwater.
Although other places have coral reefs to snorkel around, Australia is home to the famous Great Barrier Reef — the largest coral reef system in the world and one of Earth’s seven wonders. Australia is also home to wildlife that you can’t see anywhere else.
This is a destination you don’t want to miss out on! Due to environmental threats to the Great Barrier Reef, you should visit as soon as possible while you still have the opportunity.
3. Italy and Greece
Mediterranean cruises are unique because they usually dock in several different countries, giving you a little taste of the different cultures in the area. However, if you want to explore the Mediterranean, make sure Italy and Greece are on the itinerary.
These two countries are coveted cruise destinations since they combine thousands of years of history and culture with delicious food and a lively atmosphere. Whether you crave adventure, romance, relaxation, or an authentic fine dining experience, you’ll find it along the Mediterranean coast.
4. Iceland
Most people don’t think of Iceland when they think of cruises, but they should! Despite its name, Iceland boasts a wide variety of lush natural scenery to lose yourself in.
You can stop by the hot springs for a one-of-a-kind relaxation experience, go fishing, or try to spot the majestic humpbacks and orcas that frequent the ocean. In short, Iceland is a paradise for any nature lover.
There is no shortage of natural wonders in Iceland. Visitors can enjoy the breathtaking waterfalls, fjords, and mountains that stretch to the sky. Iceland is also near several other European countries that you can travel to and explore while you’re there.
No matter what cruise destination you decide on, remember that the journey is as much a part of the adventure as the destination. With plenty of food, drinks, and onboard entertainment, there’s no better time to set sail!
