Sunlit Verandah – Santos & Ilhabela from Itajai
About this cruise
3 nights from Itajai, visiting Santos and Ilhabela. It sails March 24, 2027 and it's the sort of trip where you come back saying "I needed that." No sea days at all on this one. 2 ports, one after another. Pack accordingly. Colourful colonial towns, long coastlines, and steak that deserves its reputation. People come back from this cruise talking about Ilhabela: São Paulo's island escape of waterfalls and trails. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 132,500 gross tons, Costa Diadema is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Itajai before boarding. It's a good city to wander. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. 2 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
