Panama Canal Cruise
January 2 - 15, 2017
CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS
Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos
Let the name fool you, Grand Turk, of the Turks & Caicos islands, may be small but it’s packed with scenic punch and historic
charm. This cruise to Grand Turk delivers you to this enchanted island outpost dotted with old windmills, grassy trails and
picture-perfect beaches. Discover an oasis of green set in aquamarine seas, ringed by a pristine coral reef and the steep wall
of the continental shelf.
Amber Cove, Dominican Republic
In this world full of information on just about everything, Amber Cove is a throwback — it’s the kind of quiet little spot you
won’t find on most maps. But you will find it — brimming with bars and pools, plus opportunities for lounging and shopping
— to be the gateway to island paradise, Dominican-style. Beyond Amber Cove is Puerto Plata, a town that began life as the
first European settlement in the Americas. Its founder? Oh, just a guy named Christopher Columbus… so you know that
arriving by sea is the ultimate way to get here.
Cartagena, Colombia
If you tell someone you’re planning on visiting Cartagena, make sure you tell ‘em which — Colombia’s fifth-largest city found
its namesake in a town in Spain that’s over 2,000 years old. If you find yourself in Cartagena, Jr. — only about 500 years young
— you’ll find a vibrant Colombian city with a range of neighborhoods like a bustling downtown, the traditional Getsemaní,
and even the waterfront Bocagrande… an entire cultural center on a walkable peninsula featuring beaches, shopping and
nightlife galore.
Panama Canal (Partial Transit)
Best known for connecting east to west, the Panama Canal is the right thing in the right place for speeding up transit by
sea. But what about taking it slow? It’s great for that too! With its mouth located on the Atlantic near the city of Colón, this
decades-in-the-making canal flows past the lush green scenery surrounding the canal’s impressive Gatún Locks, on its way
towards the expanse of Lake Gatún itself. You’ll go with the flow as you enter — and exit — the lake through these locks,
getting two chances to take in up-close views of the land.
Cozumel, Mexico
Limón, Costa Rica
This is your gateway to the ecotourism treasures of Costa Rica when you cruise to Limón. From here you can soar above
rainforests, feel the mist from tumbling waterfalls, and swim in clear Caribbean seas. Limón, Costa Rica, sits at the center
of the Caribbean coast’s best eco-adventures. When you cruise to Limón, don’t forget to check out the city itself, where
millions of bananas are shipped northward every year.
Mahogany Bay, Isla Roatán
With silky-sand beaches and diamond-clear seas, Roatán, Honduras is one of the Caribbean’s hidden gems. The largest of
Honduras’s Bay Islands is a real beauty, built on a backbone of volcanic rock and ringed by the world’s second largest coral
reef. Roatán promises superb diving and fishing, plus totally swoon-worthy beaches. The lush landscape of the wildlife
reserves and pristine marine parkland of Roatán awaits you on your cruise to Honduras.
Cozumel, Mexico
Cozumel is proof that Mexico can do ‘island flavor’ with the best of the Caribbean. This island just happens to be perched
atop a coral reef. Dock at the island’s heart — just minutes from San Miguel’s seafront shops and the white sand beach at
Chankanaab National Park. Drift among star corals and sea fans on a Cozumel diving excursion or simply kick back on the
beach beneath your own palm palapa as the turquoise waves roll in.
*Please see your Travel Agent to reserve your choice of shore excursions.*
Activity Level 1

Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos
At a very leisurely pace, this tour involves minimal physical activity, such as climbing some stairs,
boarding a motorcoach, and walking from the hotel reception area to hotel rooms and dining areas.
