Island Odyssey – Cozumel & Belize

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 6-night sailing from Tampa on April 5, 2026 visits Cozumel, Belize City and Costa Maya. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 3 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Port to port, the water changes colour and the music changes too. That's the fun of it. Of the stops, Costa Maya tends to be the one people talk about: Mexico's quieter Caribbean escape among Mayan ruins. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 7 restaurants on Carnival Miracle, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 6 nights. Tampa itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And April is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
