Western Caribbean Ports on Disney Cruise Line

Planning a Disney Cruise? If your voyage takes you to the Western Caribbean, you may have a chance to enjoy these ports of call!

We go about 50/50 on excursions occasionally choosing to explore on our own instead of joining in on an organized expedition. Here we’ll include any excursions we’ve experienced, as well as a few other shots of the Western Caribbean ports.

If you opt to do an excursion, consider booking through Disney Cruise Line to ensure you’re not chasing after a slow moving ship and being recorded by all the state room passengers dockside. Additionally, when booking through Disney Cruise Line, you will be given exact times and places to meet, as well as basically being handheld through the entire experience.

For my adventurous voyagers, many of the Disney Cruise Line port excursions can be booked independently and occasionally at a lower price point. Additionally, there are a number of excursions not bookable through Disney Cruise Line that may interest you. Buyer beware and be sure to make sure you keep an eye on that ever important “all aboard” time!

Castaway Cay

An almost guarantee on a Caribbean itinerary is Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay. This picturesque island is a true paradise and always one of our favorite stops!

Grand Cayman

The largest of the Cayman Islands, this port offers a number of snorkeling and diving opportunities to explore its bright and beautiful reefs. Because of the reefs, ship guests tender to and from the port.
