At Sea

While at sea, take the time to relax. Lounge by the pool, be spoiled at the spa, play a little golf, and explore the venues on-board.

It's Needia's birthday!

Grand Cayman

This upscale destination offers world-class restaurants, designer boutiques, and duty-free shopping, plus white sand beaches, brilliant blue waters, and teeming coral reefs. You can step down easily into shallow waters. Swim right through the World War II naval vessel USS Kittiwake, now a shallow artificial reef. Swim with the denizens of Stingray City in the crystalline waters of Coral Reef Gardens. After snorkeling with the graceful rays, recharge with an island barbecue on Seven Mile Beach. You'll shop in the duty-free boutiques of George Town. Conch shells were the homes of tasty mollusks. Try Cayman conch in salads, chowders, and fritters. Cruises to Grand Cayman Islands are not complete without a sample of the rich Caribbean curries, and don't miss the fresh produce: coconut, cassava, and plantains. For dessert, have some rum cake.

Stingray City

Cozumel

Amid the largest coral reef in the West, this Caribbean island lures anglers, divers, snorkelers, and beachgoers. Fish the flats or head out to blue water to hunt for big game—mahi-mahi, marlin, sailfish, and more. Bring your dive card with you on your cruise to Cozumel and witness all the natural wonders waiting below the surface, like neon tropical fish, swaying sea fans, and vibrant coral colonies. Or, go snorkeling to see the show without a dive card. Curl up on the beach in a hammock with a cold one. Go cruise shopping for beautiful Mexican silver, amber, and other artisanal gifts in San Miguel. Cozumel cuisine means fresh seafood. Savor the catch of the day served on a banana leaf, or enjoy it marinated in lime juice, cilantro, onion, and tomato. Of course, this is the place for tacos and tequilas.

Cozumel

At Sea

Relax, have a drink, play in the pool, do whatever you like on the ship.

Bimini

A small Bahamian island with a mysterious past once recognized as the location of the Lost City of Atlantis and legendary Fountain of Youth. Today, a hidden gem known for miles of pristine beaches, plenty of water activities, and year-round sport fishing.
