5 days, round-trip Asia from Keelung Taipei

About this cruise

Sometimes you just need a few days out of your routine. This one sails from Keelung on August 11, 2026, spends 5 nights visiting Sasebo and Yeosu, and gets you back before anyone really notices you were gone. The sea days at each end give the whole trip a natural arc: build-up, exploration, cool-down. Street food that'll ruin you for takeaway back home, ancient shrines, and cities that run like clockwork. Keep an eye out for Sasebo: Japan's naval city at the gateway to Kujukushima's 99 islands. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Serena carries up to 3,014 guests over 13 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. That's 5 nights well spent.
