Some of the following tips can help you make the right choice for you.

The first tip is to check the itinerary of each Caribbean cruise line you are considering. There are various Carribean cruises to take a good look at.Eastern, western, or southern Caribbean are some of the areas you can choose to take a cruise to.  Each cruise line will vary as to where their specific stops will be. If you are interested in seeing a certain area of the Caribbean be sure that it is one of the stops of the cruise line.

Excursions offered at each port will vary with each cruise line. Check to see if the excursions offered by the cruise line are enjoyable for the whole family or more for adults and couples. For this reason your choices of a Caribbean cruise line may be limited.

There are cruise lines that are more of a child-free cruise geared to entertain adults while other cruise lines provide the environment and programs that invite young children aboard. If the cruise is family oriented they will have facitites and programs specifically for children aboard the ship and well as excursions that are suited for families.  Adult only cruises will have a more relaxing atmosphere and activities of their own to enjoy. Most often the cruise line is chosen based on the vacation desired.

Besides asking friends and family you can find reviews about cruises and cruise lines. This can be helpful in finding the perfect you cruise experience.
