Set sail from a historic jewel in the Gulf of Mexico on Carnival cruises out of Galveston, Texas. Perched on the Gulf Coast, Galveston was a major commercial port in the late 1800s and has the restored architecture and proud history to show for it. Galveston’s long seawall stretches from beach to beach and offers gulf views the whole way. Sprinkle in a few museums, amusement parks, attractive beaches and tasty seafood restaurants, and you’ve got a great start to your cruise from Galveston. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9f7f4a_a61e70d72d43455ca2ba74a65ff147b9~mv2.jpg

Let yourself get carried away to Costa Maya, an area surrounded by white-sand beaches and boasting the ancient splendors of pre-Columbian civilization. Dive and snorkel in the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, home to an array of colorful fish and diverse marine life, book a day trip to the mighty Bacalar Fort and the magical Seven Colors Lagoon or marvel at the stunning images of the Sun God, Kinich Ahau, decorating the Templo de los Mascarones. Regardless of your interests, an array of enticing attractions awaits you in the tropical paradise of Costa Maya.

Cruise to Mahogany Bay and you’ll feel like you won the island lottery. With silky-sand beaches and diamond-clear seas, the island of Roatan is one of the Caribbean’s hidden gems. And there’s no better way to experience this natural paradise than on a cruise to Honduras. The largest of Honduras’s Bay Islands is a real beauty, built on a backbone of volcanic rock and ringed by the world’s second largest coral reef. MSC cruises to Roatan promise superb diving and fishing, plus totally swoon-worthy beaches. The lush landscape of the wildlife reserves and pristine marine parkland of Roatan awaits you on your cruise to Isla Tropicale-Coxen Hole in Honduras. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9f7f4a_d2d48bc4740644ac8baad430d94beb54~mv2.jpeg

Cozumel is proof that Mexico can do ‘island flavor’ with the best of the Caribbean. It may not be the biggest island in the sea, but Cozumel offers a huge variety of things to do, see, taste and explore. This island just happens to be perched atop a coral reef, which promises hours of snorkeling or scuba diving fun. Cruises to Cozumel dock at the island’s heart — just minutes from San Miguel’s seafront shops and the white sand beach at Chankanaab National Park. Drift among star corals and sea fans on a Cozumel diving excursion or simply kick back on the beach beneath your own palm palapa as the turquoise waves roll in. With non-stop zip line action, ancient discoveries at the nearby Mayan ruins, or time spent with your toes in the sand, a cruise to Cozumel may just top your best vacations list… before you even get home. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9f7f4a_21fbdb5017c74fb1865070d0fc2cffa1~mv2.jpg

No port today! You've packed tons of fun into the last 6 days, so perhaps you'll spend part of the day relaxing by the pool, but if you're ready for even more Texans-Themed fun, we've got you covered. This is our final day of the voyage and we're celebrating all the fun you've had and memories you've made this week. Join us for all of our events today, but be sure to make time for the cruise awards show. There will be a wrap up video, our final round of giveaways, and celebrations of passengers who really stood out during the cruise. We'll be handing out the hardware to recognize and remember some of our favorite moments. We're looking to celebrate FUN and many of the awards won't have a name until we see it. We think there might be awards for Most Spirited or Best dressed, but there could also be an award for Best Dance Moves on the pier in Cozumel. We simply never know all the things we will celebrate until you, the passengers, bring the fun. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9f7f4a_d24e1cbf017c4458a7f77673c60aecfd~mv2.jpg
