Tropical Escape – Grand Cayman & Cozumel

About this cruise

This is the kind of trip that just works. 5 nights from Tampa, visiting Grand Cayman Island and Cozumel, sailing January 3, 2028, and nothing about it feels forced. 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. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
