Sun-Kissed Paradise – Costa Maya & Cozumel

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Fort Lauderdale on December 26, 2027 and visits Belize City, Costa Maya and Cozumel. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. Rum punch at the beach bar, snorkelling off the dock, sunsets that are genuinely worth staring at. 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, Celebrity Xcel (2025) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 7-night sailing is a strong place to start.
