Join The Nation on our 7-night Western Caribbean Cruise — December 8th to 15th, 2024 — to come together with friends, family, Nation writers and some of the most effective activists on the planet. Sign up today for this one-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

We’ll set sail from Ft. Lauderdale, FL after a special event on land, and glide through calm waters to blissful destinations: Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, and Cozumel. Relax and soak in the sun or embark on thrilling, can’t-do-anywhere-else adventures. Float a bamboo raft down a river in Jamaica. See Grand Cayman’s shimmering reefs from a submarine. Spend the day on the water aboard a catamaran in Cozumel. Meet trade unionists in Ocho Rios. Most importantly, we’ll have time to share stories and laughter with old friends and new as we discuss and debate today’s most urgent issues. 

Join Katrina vanden Heuvel, John Nichols, Sasha Abramsky, Bhaskar Sunkara, and many more to be announced soon!

The time at sea will be marked by our Nation Conversations. We’ll talk about Election 2024, the future of progressive politics and the fragile state of democracy, war and peace, hopeful signs of a resurgent labor movement, the fight to save reproductive rights in the US, the on-going fight for racial justice, a rapidly escalating climate crisis, what COVID-19 has shown us about averting the next pandemic, and much more. Sign up today!
