The five-day cruise option from Mobile adds a cruise port stop at either Progresso or Calica, Mexico on the Yucatan peninsula. Progresso provides close access to Mayan ruins as well as beach activities. Calica is the only eastern Mexican port where the cruise ship actually docks instead of tendering passengers to shore. Calica is home to a environmental nature park that features rafting on an underground river. The cruise ships Elation and Fantasy alternate on this cruise. Each cruise ship can accommodate 2,052 passengers.
The seven-day itinerary makes port stops at Montego Bay, Jamaica; Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands and Cozumel, Mexico. Montego Bay offers a historic town and beautiful beaches. Grand Cayman offers a wide range of water sports or just relaxing on the beach. The same two cruise ships, Elation and Fantasy, make the voyage and feature three-deck high water slides, miniature golf, Internet cafe, exclusive clubs for children and teens and a casino.
