Tidal Surge – Mexico from Tampa

About this cruise

If you don't need a long holiday but still want to get out on the water, this is a solid pick. 5 nights from Tampa on September 11, 2027, visiting Costa Maya and Cozumel. The shape of this trip works well: open water on either side with 2 port calls clustered in the middle. Rum punch at the beach bar, snorkelling off the dock, sunsets that are genuinely worth staring at. Don't rush through Costa Maya, which is known as Mexico's quieter Caribbean escape among Mayan ruins. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on Radiance Of The Seas. 2 restaurants come with the fare, plus 8 more when you feel like treating yourself. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All told, 2 ports across 5 nights covers a lot.
