Disney Cruise Line Will Sail to Jamaica for the First Time in 2013
Disney Parks Blog fans, we want you to be the first to know…Disney Cruise Line is headed to Jamaica next year! That’s right, for the first time ever we’ll call on this beautiful tropical island during select Caribbean sailings from Texas.
The new seven-night Western Caribbean cruises stopping at Jamaica will depart from Galveston in late 2013. In addition to Falmouth, Jamaica, these voyages will call on Grand Cayman and Cozumel, Mexico.
So what are some of the best things to do in Jamaica? Nature lovers can snorkel the turquoise waters and relax on the beautiful beaches…take a bamboo raft ride along the Martha Brae River for exceptional views of the island’s lush tropical scenery…or visit nearby Ocho Rios to see the spectacular Dunn’s River Falls.
If you’re looking to experience the history and culture of Jamaica, you can explore Falmouth, one of the Caribbean’s best-preserved Georgian towns. Whether you take a trip through time on a horse-and-buggy ride, shop for arts and crafts or indulge in a meal with Jamaica’s signature jerk recipes, you’ll most definitely enjoy your time in this quaint port town.
What’s your favorite Caribbean port of call?

This is definitely a great addition! Is anyone planning a Disney Cruise for next year? If you are, you might want to think about having the opportunity of being among the first DCL Guests to stop in beautiful Jamaica!
I'm surprised by this. Disney has always carefully selected their ports of call. For those who have never been to the Carribean, most of the islands don't look like the brochures. Many are very poor, run down, and unsafe. Jamaica is such an island. Unless you enjoy being constantly solicited by prostitutes and drug adicts, I would suggest staying on board.
