Ember Glow – Mexico from Tampa

About this cruise

5 nights from Tampa, visiting Costa Maya and Cozumel. It sails June 19, 2027 and it's the sort of trip where you come back saying "I needed that." The shape of this trip works well: open water on either side with 2 port calls clustered in the middle. Clear water and warm sand at every stop. It's the Caribbean, so you probably already know what to expect. Cozumel alone is worth the trip, Mexico's Caribbean island of Mayan mystery. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Radiance Of The Seas keeps you well fed. 10 places to eat, with 2 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. A strong pick for first-timers. Not too long, not too short, and you get a taste of the routine. If you can, add a night in Tampa before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. Worth booking. That's the short version.
