Tide & Temple Dash – Cozumel & Progreso

About this cruise

5 nights is all it takes to completely reset. This cruise from Galveston on July 26, 2027 visits Cozumel and Progreso (Mérida) and you'll feel it from day one. You start at sea, hit the ports, then finish at sea. The ports feel like the centrepiece, framed by lazy ocean days. Snorkelling, palm trees, rum. Each stop does it a bit differently. You get around 8 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Carnival Horizon takes the food seriously, with 14 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Galveston has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. 5 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
