Ocean Discovery – Cozumel, Roatan Island & Costa Maya

About this cruise

7 nights, 3 ports, all from Tampa on January 9, 2028. The route visits Cozumel, Roatan Island and Costa Maya and the whole thing just flows. Port days and sea days take turns, which is about as well-paced as a cruise itinerary gets. Snorkelling, palm trees, rum. Each stop does it a bit differently. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Brilliance Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 8 restaurants to choose from. 2 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Tampa has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
