I don't think so, but you may have to go to some new places. Ten years ago
I think it was the Caribbean and Europe. Now it seems to be the Far East.
You can still cruise the Caribbean for sure just not the way it was ten
years ago. More expensive. More crowded. More violence. Still some nice
spots though. Belize comes to mind.

More a state of mind I think.

Just my .02

  I love to sail and have been planning my world cruise for a few years
  now. The more I read and learn, and the more I talk to old salts, it
  seems that I've missed the heyday of cruising. Are the quiet,
  secluded anchorages really gone? I'm more than a bit of a hermit,
  and the thought of endless crowded marinas and coves upsets me. I
  love blue water passages, but would have difficulty cruising just for
  that reason. What's the status of cruising life compared to 20 years
  ago? Any speculation as to what it will be like 10 years from now?
