Opal Spray – Riviera Maya & Cozumel

About this cruise

This is the kind of trip that just works. 5 nights from Tampa, visiting Costa Maya and Cozumel, sailing February 14, 2028, and nothing about it feels forced. Sea days bookend the port visits. You settle in, see the ports, then have time to wind down before heading home. Snorkelling, palm trees, rum. Each stop does it a bit differently. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Radiance Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 10 restaurants to choose from. 2 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Good for anyone who can't take two weeks off but still wants the cruise experience. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Tampa has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 5-night sailing is a strong place to start.
