Sunken Galleon Route – Cartagena, Panama & Cozumel
About this cruise
If you've got 12 nights to work with, this sailing from Fort Lauderdale on November 11, 2027 through Oranjestad, Cartagena and Panama Canal, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 7 port calls start. Crossing 6 borders through the Caribbean: Aruba, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Cayman Islands and Mexico. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Oranjestad stands out. It's Aruba's cheerful Dutch-Caribbean capital. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Caribbean Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All in all, it's a solid trip.
