Hit the high seas on a quickie escape
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. Galveston’s port, which is again operational following a rough brush with Hurricane Ike in 2008, is the disembarkation point for 4-night year-round sailings aboard one of Carnival’s “Fun Ships.” Sail through the Gulf of Mexico to Cozumel, where shore excursions to Mayan ruins and jungle adventures 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.
