No, pirates have not attacked any cruise ship in the Caribbean. And, no, the area isn't the hotbed of pirate and terrorist activity against ships that other area (Somalia, Nigeria, Indonesia) are.

But, there HAVE been a few acutal pirate attacks in the Caribbean. Three were reported in 2005, and I'll post the stories of those in the next three posts.


So, if no cruise ships have been attacked, what's the point of this thread?

Just a reminder that, although we tend to feel SAFE on our cruises, we DO lsometimes venture into areas with dangers of which we are unaware, and it's wise to pack a dose of caution along with your sunscreen. And hold your children close.
