The Sailing Itinerary
Dust off your passport and join Candies and Kendrick as they celebrate Cajuana’s birthday and Candie’s birthday and yes Candie’s mom’s birthday too! There will be a lot of milestones to celebrate and lots of ways to have fun.
This celebration cruise leaves from the historic port of Galveston, Texas, nestled on the Gulf Coast. Galveston, a bustling commercial hub in the late 1800s, boasts restored architecture and a rich history.
Additionally, the city’s long seawall offers stunning gulf views, enhancing your cruise departure experience. Sprinkled with museums, amusement parks, beautiful beaches, and delicious seafood, Galveston promises a memorable start to your cruise.
Next, after exploring Galveston, you’ll sail towards Cozumel, Mexico, enjoying a fun day at sea on the way there.
In Cozumel, you’ll discover an island brimming with Caribbean charm. Despite its size, Cozumel offers a vast array of activities, sights, flavors, and adventures.
The next day after Cozumel, you’ll get to explore Progreso, Mexico. The area is full of history, architecture, culture and natural wonders.
