Overview
Cruise Itinerary
Day 1
Fly from the UK to Miami, USA
Fly to Miami for an overnight hotel stay in central Miami South Beach area.
Day 2
Miami Beach, USA
A further overnight hotel stay in Miami Beach. Ocean Drive is the main beach drag where the tanned and toned rub shoulders with the diners, drinkers, sunbathers and swimmers. This is party central with everything contained in one area. For shopping centres visit Biscayne Bay on the mainland or the impressive Port Aventura Mall in North Miami Beach.
Day 3
Miami, USA
Make your own way to the nearby Port of Miami and embark the ship.
Day 4
At sea
Relax and make the most of the myriad of facilities available on board the ship, from fantastic entertainment to delicious and diverse dining options.
Day 5
Ocho Rios, Jamaica
There are some top attractions on Jamaica – the biggest one being Dunns River Falls ( close to Ocho Rios) made famous by the James Bond film Dr No. Gentle bamboo rafting on the Martha Brae river made famous by Errol Flynn is exceedingly tranquil and worth doing. Another great trip is horse riding through the sugar cane plantations, on to the beach then swimming on your horse in the sea - absolutely marvellous. Perhaps visit the Blue Mountains and the coffee plantations for a unique souvenir or gift.
Day 6
At sea
Relax and make the most of the myriad of facilities available on board the ship, from fantastic entertainment to delicious and diverse dining options.
Day 7
Cartagena, Columbia
Cartagena is a modern port city on Colombia’s Caribbean coast. At its core is the walled Old Town, with 16th-century plazas, cobblestone streets and colorful colonial buildings. With a tropical climate, the city is a popular beach destination. Reachable by boat are the nearby shores of Isla de Barú and Islas del Rosario, known for their coral reefs and scuba diving.
Day 8
Panama Canal, Panama
One of the seven wonders of the world linking the Caribbean to the Pacific Ocean by a series of locks taking huge ships across the Central America via the Gatun Lake. A must do journey on anyone's bucket list the ship squeezes through narrow canals seemingly floating across dry land. A Journey through the Panama Canal is achieved by the ship rising up and down through huge locks. On this Itinerary the ship will travel through the first set of locks (comprising of three stepped tiers) from the Caribbean to the Gatun lake and back. Your Panama Canal taster experience ends with a port of call on Cristobal for Colón which is known as Panama's second city and it is the capital of Panama's Colón Province.
Day 9
Puerto Limon, Costa Rica
Stretching along the Caribbean Coast, Limon is considered to be one of the most pristine and lush regions of Costa Rica. Roughly 125 miles of shoreline lies between Nicaragua and Panama which boasts picturesque white-sand beaches lined with coconut trees for an ultimate tropical paradise.
Day 10
At sea
Relax and make the most of the myriad of facilities available on board the ship, from fantastic entertainment to delicious and diverse dining options.
Day 11
Harvest Caye, Belize
A day to spend on the beach sinking your toes in to the sand and enjoying a free beach BBQ courtesy of Norwegian Cruise Line on their private island. Perhaps try an exhilarating zip-wire experience, the jet skis or a selections of water sports.
Day 12
Cozumel, Mexico
This island is just 12 miles long and situated 20 minutes ferry ride from the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Cozumel is really a staging post for cruise passengers to visit mainland Mexico with its Mayan ruins at Tulum. Cozumel town is lively with its many bars and myriad of shops. Explore the Xel Ha aquatic park with its subterranean rivers, natural pools and sacred Mayan Lagoon. We found the scuba diving here to be the best in the Caribbean. The best beach is located in the Punta Sur Ecological Park.
Day 13
At sea
Relax and make the most of the myriad of facilities available on board the ship, from fantastic entertainment to delicious and diverse dining options.
Day 14
Fly from Miami USA to the UK
Disembark the ship after breakfast and make your own way to Miami airport for your overnight flight home.
