Panama Canal Journey – Cartagena & Cabo

About this cruise

You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 15 nights from Miami on April 17, 2028, visiting Cartagena, Colon and Puntarenas, with additional stops along the Caribbean. The trip wraps in Los Angeles, so you won't retrace your steps. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. The route threads through 6 countries along the Caribbean coast: Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico and United States. Keep an eye out for Cabo San Lucas: Where the desert kisses the sea. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Norwegian Joy has 14 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. Miami itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And April is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. That's 15 nights well spent.
