Disney Cruise Line is adding two new Caribbean destinations to its 2016 lineup, the company announced.

Disney is adding Tortola, British Virgin Islands and the French Caribbean department of Martinique to its early 2016 itineraries, including a return to the homeport of San Juan.

In 2016, Disney Cruise Line will sail from Port Canaveral on a seven-night itinerary to the Eastern Caribbean, including a call at Tortola and the company’s private island in the Bahamas, Castaway Cay.

The company is also returning to San Juan, sailing four seven-night cruises to the southern Caribbean, including a stop in Martinique.

Martinique in particular has seen a significant increase in cruise arrivals in the last year.
