3 days, round-trip Asia from Keelung Taipei

About this cruise

This is the kind of trip that just works. 3 nights from Keelung, visiting Naha and Ishigaki, sailing August 5, 2026, and nothing about it feels forced. Every single day is a port day. 2 stops with no sea days in between. You're busy from start to finish. Karaoke bars, hot springs, and temples draped in moss. East Asia does culture and chaos in equal measure. Most ports give you about 8 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Serena: 3,014 guests, 13 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
