Mayan Maze – Cozumel & Progreso

About this cruise

5 nights from Galveston, visiting Cozumel and Progreso (Mérida). It sails June 5, 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. Turquoise water, white sand, and that particular Caribbean slowness where nothing feels urgent. Of the stops, Cozumel tends to be the one people talk about: Mexico's Caribbean island of Mayan mystery. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Horizon has 14 dining spots on board, most of them included. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
