  1. Day 1

    Miami, USA

    Miami rewards travelers who look beyond its cruise terminals. South Beach pairs pastel Art Deco hotels with Ocean Drive; Little Havana serves Cuban coffee and music along Calle Ocho. The Pérez Art Museum Miami and nearby Design District reveal the city’s creative ambition. For a change of pace, Biscayne Bay and the Everglades place vivid natural landscapes within reach.

  2. Day 3

    Cozumel, Mexico

    Cozumel, off Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, pairs clear Caribbean water with a lively island town. San Miguel de Cozumel offers cafés, shops and a waterfront promenade within easy reach of the cruise piers. Beyond town, reef excursions reveal why divers travel here, while San Gervasio preserves the island’s Mayan history. Choose a beach day, a guided snorkel or a drive around the coast; each shows a different side of Cozumel.

  3. Day 4

    Costa Maya, Mexico

    Puerto Costa Maya sits on Mexico’s Caribbean coast, near the fishing village of Mahahual. The cruise terminal has restaurants, shops and pools; beyond it, the coast feels quieter than Cancún. Spend the day on Mahahual’s beaches, snorkel the Mesoamerican Reef, or head inland to Chacchoben’s Maya temples. For a longer excursion, Bacalar’s clear lagoon offers a striking change of scene.

  4. Day 5

    Belize City, Belize

    Belize City is the country’s largest city and maritime gateway, set on the Caribbean coast. It stands at the mouth of Haulover Creek, where cruise ships anchor offshore. Tenders bring visitors to the Fort Street Tourism Village. From here, explore colonial-era landmarks and local markets, or travel inland to Maya sites and cave systems. Belize’s barrier reef offers excellent options for snorkelling and diving.

  5. Day 6

    Roatan Island, Honduras

    Roatán, the largest of Honduras’s Bay Islands, sits beside the Mesoamerican Reef, the world’s second-largest barrier reef system. That proximity makes clear water and coral gardens the island’s chief attractions, whether you snorkel or dive. Follow the coast between West End’s lively shops and West Bay’s broad, pale-sand beach. For a quieter view of island life, head east toward villages, mangroves, and viewpoints above the Caribbean.

  6. Day 8

    Puerto Limon

    Puerto Limón is Costa Rica’s Caribbean gateway, where Afro-Caribbean heritage meets a lush tropical coast. Visit Cahuita National Park for coral reefs and rainforest trails, or travel inland through banana country toward the jungle. Limón’s markets and waterfront offer a closer look at the region’s food, music and daily life. For a longer excursion, explore Tortuguero’s canals by boat and watch for wildlife in the Caribbean lowlands.

  7. Day 9

    Colon, Panama

    Colón puts you at Panama’s Caribbean gateway, where the Atlantic meets the Panama Canal. At Agua Clara Locks, watch ships pass through the expanded canal toward Gatun Lake. Nearby, Portobelo and San Lorenzo preserve Spanish colonial fortifications built to guard Caribbean trade routes. Colón is best approached as a gateway, with its strongest draws found in the canal, historic coast and surrounding rainforest.

  8. Day 10

    Panama Canal, Panama

    Few journeys change your sense of scale like a passage through the Panama Canal. This 50-mile waterway links the Atlantic and Pacific, lifting ships through locks and across Gatun Lake. Watch the gates close, water rise, and a vast vessel move within inches of concrete walls. On deck, the engineering is the spectacle; beyond it, rainforest edges the route. Bring binoculars, and stay outside for the crossing.

  9. Day 11

    Panama City, Panama

    Balboa sits at the Pacific entrance to the Panama Canal, where ocean-going ships begin their passage between continents. From the port, Panama City’s skyline rises beyond the canal’s working waters. Visit Casco Viejo for restored colonial streets, independent cafés and views across the bay. Or follow the Amador Causeway toward the Biomuseo and sweeping views of ships awaiting transit. Balboa rewards travelers who look beyond the canal to a capital shaped by trade, history and the sea.
