Set sail on a salsa cruise for rousing dancing and Latin rhythms.

Feel The Beat

Are you a salsero (a salsa dancer or fan)? Do you enjoy the warm air and soft breezes of ocean cruising? If you answered yes to both, then a salsa cruise should be a must-do on your travel bucket list. Over the years, I’ve experienced many dance cruises — from ballroom to tango to zydeco — but nothing compares to the vibe of a salsa cruise.

Salsa, Salsa Everywhere

As soon as I boarded Carnival Cruise Line’s colorful Carnival Victory, there was no mistake that I was on a salsa cruise. The enticing rhythm of salsa music was playing everywhere. Exploring the ship, the Latin beat could be heard from the dining room to the casino and all the way up to the top deck.

Salsa was the background music for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and all hours of the day and night. Passengers could choose between a live band or a visit to the different venues with DJs at the helm. The fun and the cool energetic sound thrilled any salsa enthusiast, whether they were a dancer or a spectator.

The 4-day cruise was filled with activities such as Zumba classes, advanced salsa dance classes, an outdoor concert in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, and, of course, leading lineups.
