Tex/Mex Cruise

For quick cruise flings to Mexico, most cruisers set their sights on Florida departure ports. We propose spicing things up a bit with a little Tex/Mex flavor, by setting sail from Galveston, Texas instead. You can kick off your vacation before you even hit the high seas – Galveston’s port is near to stunning beaches, newly built resorts, and an old-fashioned boardwalk lined by carnival-like attractions. Then catch a Carnival of another type – in the form of a cruise ship, with 4-night year-round sailings available on a Carnival “Fun Ship” through the Gulf of Mexico to Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, stopping at Progreso and Cozumel, where shore excursions to Mayan ruins and folklore shows await. Onboard Ecstasy, guests can expect diversions like water slides, mini-golf, first-class bars and lounges, and a full sports deck to keep the excitement going 24-7.
