Vibrant Seas – Costa Maya & Cozumel

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 8-night sailing from Tampa on April 17, 2027 visits Roatan Island, Costa Maya, Cozumel and Grand Cayman Island. The shape of this trip works well: open water on either side with 4 port calls clustered in the middle. The route threads through 3 countries along the Caribbean coast: Honduras, Mexico and Cayman Islands. Costa Maya stands out. It's Mexico's quieter Caribbean escape among Mayan ruins. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 10 restaurants on Radiance Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 8 nights. Tampa itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All in all, it's a solid trip.
