Tropical Escape – Grand Cayman & Cozumel

About this cruise

5 nights, 2 ports, one very easy decision. This one heads out of Tampa on January 4, 2027 and visits Grand Cayman Island and Cozumel. Sea days bookend the port visits. You settle in, see the ports, then have time to wind down before heading home. Turquoise water, white sand, and that particular Caribbean slowness where nothing feels urgent. Around 8 hours per port on average, so pick your priorities beforehand. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Paradise has 6 dining spots on board, most of them included. 5 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
