Cruise Diva's CRUISE DIARY
~ Western Caribbean "Sunshine Sojourns"~
Sail on a virtual cruise through the western Caribbean with Cruise Diva on board one of the most distinctive vessels at sea, Radisson Seven Seas Cruises' ssc Radisson Diamond.
Her innovative SWATH (Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull) design utilizes a narrow hull area in contact with the waves and fins which, controlled by computers, virtually negate the motion of the sea and provide unparalleled stability. The degree of vessel roll is only one-fifth that of a monohull cruise vessel. The ssc Radisson Diamond offers her guests unrivaled cruising comfort.
But before we go aboard, take a short photo tour between her twin hulls for a close up look at her incredible futuristic design. How often do you get to sail BENEATH a cruise ship?!?
Fort Lauderdale Embarkation & a day in Key West
Embark with us on this unique vessel and then amble around Key West.
Relax during a sea day & then hit the beach in Grand Cayman
After an active day at sea, we arrived in Grand Cayman. What to do... shop in the posh boutiques, swim with the stingrays, or laze on Seven-Mile Beach? How about a sea kayak excursion?
An uncommon "overnight" in Cozumel
Most cruise ships spend the day at best, but we had the opportunity to sample local cuisine and a bit of Cozumel's lively nightlife.
After another day at sea, it's time for final impressions
The cruise is complete and I share some of the experiences that make a RADISSON DIAMOND cruise a special treat.
