Cruise Overview

Miami is one of the world’s most popular holiday spots.

It has so much to offer; from its countless beach areas, to culture and museums, from spa and shopping days out, to endless cuban restaurants and cafes.

Miami is a multicultural city that has something to offer to everyone.
Located closer to Havana than Miami, Key West is synonymous for all that is fabulous.

Whether it’s beaches, back country or just a brilliant time that you’re after, Florida’s most southern point holds a wealth of intrigue, both past and present.

Famed for its unique originality, Key West is a condensation of the best of the sunshine state – fantastic weather, laid back attitude, deep-rooted history and masses of fantastic, fresh seafood; it’s little wonder that nobody ever wants to leave.Floating in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico, the island has two very definite personalities: bookish and bizarre.

On the one hand, the literary festivals, exquisite Caribbean architecture and splendid art galleries attract the bourgeoisie, while on the other, the eccentricity and reticence to be associated with “the mainland” attracts all kinds of “happies” –new era hippies.

The two dichotomies live peacefully side by side and have done ever since travellers started arriving in the 1960s — Key West being one of the three big K’s on the hippie path to enlightenment (Kuta and Kathmandu are the others).But past the idiosyncrasies of the Key Westers, and you will find an island that is literally brimming over with spectacular sights and wonderful wilderness.

From Henry S.

Truman’s Little White House and Ernest Hemmingway’s house and studio, to botanical gardens and marine sanctuaries, visitors will leave this fascinating island wanting more.Best seen by foot, bike or boat, this is an island to be explored al fresco.
It's not another Cancún yet, but Cozumel's days as a rustic divers' hangout are history.

Whether arriving by plane or at the island's gleaming ferry terminal, visitors soon realize there's nothing deserted about this island.

That has its advantages.

It's rare to find such stunning natural beauty, glass-clear aquamarine seas, and vast marine life combined with top-flight visitor services and accommodations, and as a result Cozumel's devotees are legion.

Divers sharing stories of lionfish and sharks sit table-to-table with families tanned from a day at the beach club, while Mexican couples spin and step to salsa music in the central plaza.

But the elephant in Cozumel's big and bountiful room are the throngs of cruise-ship passengers who take over the countless crafts and jewelry stores along the seaward boulevard downtown any day there are ships in port—which is to say, just about every day.

But take just a few steps off the beaten path and this little island offers big rewards.

Deserted, windswept beaches, wild and vibrant natural parks, and 600 miles of coral reef are still yours for the discovering.

Just 19 km (12 miles) off the coast, Cozumel is 53 km (33 miles) long and 15 km (9 miles) wide, making it the country's third-largest island.

Plaza Central, or just "la plaza," is the heart of San Miguel, directly across from the docks.

Residents congregate here in the evening, especially on weekends, when free concerts begin at 8 pm.

Heading inland (east) takes you away from the tourist zone and toward residential areas of town.

Most of the island's restaurants, hotels, stores, and dive shops are concentrated downtown and along the two hotel zones that fan out along the leeward coast to the north and south of San Miguel.

The most concentrated commercial district is between Calle 10 Norte and Calle 11 Sur to beyond Avenida Pedro Joaquin Coldwell.

Cozumel's solitude-seeking windward side also has a few restaurants and one hotel.

Unless you want to stick around your hotel or downtown San Miguel for your whole stay, you'll do well to rent a car or a scooter.

Most worthwhile sites, such as the island's Mayan ruins and pristine windward beaches, are only readily accessible with wheels.

Taxi fares are astronomical, and after just a few trips a rental car is clearly a better deal.
