"We prefer Fort Lauderdale over Miami for cruising. The port is easier to navigate, the beaches are better for a pre-cruise day, and the cruise lines here tend to be a notch up—Princess, Celebrity, Holland America. The prices are comparable to Miami, sometimes better. We track both ports, but Fort Lauderdale often has the deals we recommend."
