Whether you're just looking to taste this xxx region or even returning for another fix, India ocean cruising is a beautiful experience. There are only a handful of cruises that depart from the country (usually from Mumbai), however there are many more than incorporate coastal ports into their itineraries. You'll find that most mainstream itineraries visit the hubs of Cochin and Mumbai, but if you're interested in visiting less frequented ports, make sure to have a look at the smaller-shipped cruise lines like Seabourn, Silversea and Regent Seven Seas.
