Ocean Discovery – San Diego, Cabo San Lucas & Puntarenas
About this cruise
Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 14-night sailing leaves San Diego on October 3, 2026 and visits Cabo San Lucas, Puntarenas, Panama Canal, Colon, Cartagena and Miami. You wind up in Miami, so it's worth planning a night or two there. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 5 countries, from Mexico to United States. Miami stands out. It's Where Latin energy meets Art Deco cool. Around 8 hours per port on average, so pick your priorities beforehand. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Poesia has 5 dining spots on board, most of them included. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
