Day 1
Welcome to Tampa, Florida – the gateway to an epic voyage!
Welcome to Tampa, a bustling coastal city known for its Cuban culture, amusement parks, and stellar beaches. You might decide to extend your trip by enjoying this killer town for a few days before the voyage or fly in on the day. Whatever you choose, be sure to make your way to the Norwegian Dawn in time for our ship departure — embarkation is at 4:00 pm! Check-in at the desk, head to your room, and prepare for an adventure to some of the best Caribbean islands. The cruise ship itself has plenty to offer, so start exploring. Grab a bite or a drink to kick off the trip, unwind in the swimming pool and hot tubs, or simply explore the deck and get settled in your new home!
Day 2
Raise a glass to a day on the ocean
Good morning, cruisers! Today is a day of pure serenity as you glide across the ocean in pursuit of your first destination. You’ll have the entire day to relax, unwind, or get stuck into the ship’s supply of champagne! Spend some time in the fitness center, book a massage or treatment at the spa, browse the many enticing shops, or simply float your way across the pool for a day. Once the sun goes down, try your luck in the casino, slip your dancing shoes on, find some entertainment, or explore the bars and restaurants at your disposal. Who knew life on the ocean could bring such an unlimited amount of excitement?
Day 3
Return to dry land on glorious Cozumel, Mexico
Cozumel is the best of all worlds. You can have a relaxing day on the pristine shoreline or get adventurous and see everything the island has to offer. The island is famous for its snorkeling and diving, and its coral reefs are nothing short of spectacular. Be sure to lookout for the majestic sea wall murals too, and get ready with your camera! Go inland and you’ll have the island’s town of San Miguel to discover a tranquil setting where life moves at a gentle pace. Just beyond the town, there’s the option of exploring some ancient Mayan ruins with a trip to the San Gervasio Archaeological Site. However you plan to spend your day on dry land, be sure to head back to the ship by 6:00 pm for a well-deserved rest and to find some scrumptious dinner.
Day 4
Enjoy the pleasures of Roatán Island, Honduras
Shake off your sea legs and gather yourself for another day in a different paradise! Just 30 miles off the coast of Honduras, you'll find Roatán, the largest of the country's Bay Islands and home to some of the best pillar coral in the Caribbean. You’ll have the beautiful Tabyana Beach at your disposal, and if you want to discover the waters that teem with marine life, we highly recommend a snorkeling or diving excursion to explore the Honduran Reef. If you head inland, the lush jungle awaits. Adventurers might want to embark on a jungle canopy tour to meet some local wildlife! At 5:00 pm, return to your ocean carriage, collapse into a lounger and get set for another night of partying, cruise style.
Day 5
Spend a day on the private island of Harvest Caye
By now, you should be feeling like a proper sailer! Today, you’ll have the joy of waking up in the idyllic setting of Harvest Caye, Belize. The island is part of the Belize barrier reef — the largest of its kind in the west — and its diverse ecology includes jungles, rainforests and swamps. It’s also a great stop to chat with the locals to get the lowdown on the region, as everyone speaks English! On Harvest Caye, you might want to add some water activities to your itinerary, go ziplining through the jungle, or visit the ancient mayan city of Nim Li Punit, before setting sail again at 4:00 pm.
Day 6
Take in the magical world of Costa Maya, Mexico
Today, you’ll awaken to semi-familiar territory in the shape of the Yucatan Peninsula, only in the new setting of Costa Maya. This coastal paradise features some of the softest sand and bluest seas you’ll ever see! You’ll also have a vast choice of activities to add to your vacation if you’re feeling adventurous. Travel to see ancient Mayan ruins, take a journey through the jungle, enjoy a wellness retreat or go swimming with dolphins. With tomorrow being another leisurely day at sea, don’t forget to grab some souvenirs in Costa Maya, and get back to the ship for a 4:00 pm sail.
Day 7
Glide on the ocean with the Norwegian Dawn at your disposal
As you sail across the ocean today, take a moment to reflect on your adventure so far, from Mexico to Honduras to Belize. Now’s the time sift through photographs, check in with your social media, and fill your Instagram with all the best snapshots… or you could leave that for a rainy day and dive into the ship’s best amenities! Be sure to try a new restaurant or two, make the most of the bars and loungers, and if you haven’t already done so, get yourself down to Elements in the evening. This is the ship’s exclusive musical show, and the perfect way to end your cruise.
Day 8
Wake up in Tampa and prepare for dry land
Wake up in Tampa and grab a hearty breakfast to set you up for the day! Once you’ve disembarked from the ship and said your goodbyes, why not extend your vacation by enjoying some of the city sights? You’ll have the Busch Garden Theme Park, the bohemian Tbor district to explore, and some fabulous museums to take in, including those of art and science. Whatever your plans, enjoy your final day and come cruise with us again soon!
