Separated from the Atlantic Ocean by the sandbar known as Miami Beach, the city of Miami is home port for several of the world's leading cruise lines.

While most cruises sailing out of Miami last for three, four, seven, ten or more days and call at popular Caribbean ports, there are also overnight, weekend, and short "cruises to nowhere" available.

Since Miami is so close to the embarkation port, you can also take advantage of cruise auctions and last-minute sales.

So the next time you're wondering where to go, skip driving or flying out of Miami. Instead, imagine sailing into the blue horizon on a romantic weekend getaway with your partner.
