Jade & Amber Trail – Cozumel & Progreso

About this cruise

Some of the best trips are the ones you barely had to plan. 5 nights from Galveston on December 21, 2026, visiting Cozumel and Progreso (Mérida), and you're home before the laundry piles up. The sea days at each end give the whole trip a natural arc: build-up, exploration, cool-down. Port to port, the water changes colour and the music changes too. That's the fun of it. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Cozumel, Mexico's Caribbean island of Mayan mystery. Roughly 8 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 5 nights. Galveston itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
