summer cruise

Warm-weather ocean trip

A summer cruise is a vacation voyage taken during the warm months, typically on a large passenger ship traveling to coastal or island destinations.

The phrase combines the season with the leisure travel format: We're booking a summer cruise to Alaska.

Summer cruises to the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and northern routes like Norway or Alaska are particularly popular.
