Pirates once plundered the shores of Tampa Bay, but today this swashbuckling city attracts beach seekers, outdoor enthusiasts and museum lovers alike. Its low-key beach vibe blends seamlessly with its glistening downtown atmosphere— and there’s no shortage of thrills for all ages. Explore Ybor City’s cigar-rolling history or brave rollercoasters at Busch Gardens.

Tampa cruises allow you to discover a treasure trove of adventures, from the beach to the bay.

7 Night Western Caribbean Cruise | Royal Caribbean Cruises (17)

Belize City

Tendered from 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM

With all the heart of a Central American country and all the soul of a Caribbean Isle, Belize opens the door to one-of-a-kind exploration. Here you can choose adventures like trekking ancient Maya ruins and scouting the only jaguar preserve in the world. Hike along rainforest trails and take a zip line through lush treetops. Or hop on an inner tube and float through spectacular limestone caves, passing tumbling waterfalls along the network of rivers flowing to the Caribbean. And for ultimate relaxation, dig your toes in the sand anywhere along the breathtaking 200-mile-long coastline with hundreds of tiny islets called cayes (pronounced “keys”).

SKY-HIGH SIGHTS

Cruise to Belize and trek to the tallest building in the nation— an ancient temple built by the Maya. Standing 137-feet tall, the pyramid ruins of the Sky Palace, El Caana, preside over Caracol, one of the country’s 900 pre-Colombian archaeological sites.

Insider tip

Cruise ships anchor outside of Belize City harbor and guests tender in.

7 Night Western Caribbean Cruise | Royal Caribbean Cruises (32)

FLOAT INTO ADVENTURE

If you’re looking for a unique experience, you can’t miss cave tubing in Belize. Float down the river stream on an inflatable tube through an intricate network of limestone caverns — which the Maya believed were the entrance to the underworld. Learn about cave geology and rich Maya history while admiring stalagmite formations and ancient offerings left behind centuries ago.

Insider tip

Look for green license plates to identify certified taxis.

7 Night Western Caribbean Cruise | Royal Caribbean Cruises (33)

Roatan

Tendered from 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Roatán’s diverse blend of cultures and traditions is enough to charm anyone. But its mangrove forests, dense jungles, and swaths of white-sand beach will make you want to stay forever. Divers and snorkelers from all over the globe flock to the largest of Honduras’ Bay Islands every year see to the world’s second largest barrier reef firsthand. Roatán cruises provide access to laid-back beach towns and secluded shores. On the Big Island, you can mingle with monkeys and “Jesus” lizards, snorkel with stingrays, and zipline through rainforest canopies. If it’s culture you crave, the island’s unique and vibrant blend is more than satisfying—made up of ex-pat sun seekers, Hondurans from the mainland, descendants of European settlers, and Garífuna, whose Afro-Carib-Arawak heritage still flavors centuries-old communities like Punta Gorda.

At the Gumbalimba Park nature reserve you can hang with monkeys and parrots, snorkel alongside exotic fish and rays, chill in a beach hammock, and zipline through the rainforest canopy.

Insider tip

The best way to travel between Roatán’s West End and West Bay Beach is by water taxi.

7 Night Western Caribbean Cruise | Royal Caribbean Cruises (40)

Wander the West End Village to get a real taste of Roatán life. At this bohemian island enclave, you’ll find lots of restaurants, bars, craft shops, and piers lined with water taxis waiting to ferry you to popular spots along the coast.

Insider tip

If you run out of sunscreen, pick up some cactus juice lotion. Produced locally, it protects against the sun’s rays and also repels bugs.

7 Night Western Caribbean Cruise | Royal Caribbean Cruises (41)

DIVE IN

Head to the Sandy Bay-West End Marine Reserve for some of the best diving in the world during your Roatan cruise. Encompassing 8 miles of coastline, the reserve is home to 38 unique dive sites, all within a 15-minute boat ride from the coast.

LOCAL CUISINE

Local Cuisine

Cozumel’s cuisine is dominated by Mexican, American and international cuisine. Fresh seafood is always a good choice, and so is the cochinita pibil— a slow-roasted, highly seasoned pork dish. Cool off with a michelada, made with beer and freshly squeezed lime juice over ice in a salt-rimmed glass. Or keep it traditional with Mexico’s signature spirit, tequila.
