Cruises Enhance the Romance for Valentine's

(NewsUSA) - Want to do something different for Valentine's Day this year? Forgo the flowers and chocolates and take your loved one on a cruise vacation.

Nothing can match a cruise for romance - sun-filled days, exotic ports of call, golden sunsets and evenings of fine dining and dancing beneath the stars.

And while your significant other doesn't have to know, a cruise is an affordable, all-inclusive experience. All meals, entertainment and a wide variety of activities are included.

Your cruise can be as active or as relaxing as you desire. Whether it's stretching out with a book on a deck chair, seeking out local crafts in port or engaging in watersports off a white-sand beach, there's something for every couple to enjoy.

Cruise ships also offer many programs for weddings, honeymoons and vow-renewal ceremonies, whether on a ship like Windstar or a more traditional luxury cruise vessel like the Holland America Line fleet.

Holland America offers nuptials at sea and ashore on itineraries throughout the Caribbean, Alaska and other destinations in the Americas and Europe.

For vow-renewal ceremonies, one trip offers the rustic Bahamian chapel overlooking the blue waters of the Caribbean on Holland America Line's private island, Half Moon Cay.

Featured on most Holland America Caribbean itineraries, Half Moon Cay is a paradise of white beaches and adventures like swimming with stingrays or horseback rides on the beach.
