You really haven't seen Florida until you've seen the Florida Keys. This archipelago consists of a 126-mile string of 1,000 beautiful coral islands stretching out at the south end of the state. Many of them are connected by the Overseas Highway (Highway U.S. 1). Key West, located 155 miles south of Miami, is the best known and southernmost spot in the continental U.S.A. It is a tropical blend of exotic foliage, beautiful waters and history-rich attractions. Since its founding in 1822, Key West has gone through many phases; over the years pirates, smugglers, writers and revolutionaries have made the Conch Republic their home. Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, Robert Frost and Thornton Wilder are among the most noted who came here to enjoy the idyllic setting and casual, relaxed atmosphere. In the early 1800s, pirates found the Keys' busy shipping lanes quite profitable and Key West an easy escape. When piracy was defeated, a new, legal industry emerged - wrecking. The history of the wreckers can be learned in the Wrecker's Museum, which features treasures of some of the most successful salvage operations. Other industries developed, including sponging and fine cigar making; the latter was introduced in the 1830s by Cubans who escaped from Spanish tyranny. In 1912, Henry Flagler's railroad between Key West and the mainland was completed; it was destroyed by a hurricane a few years later. Cigar makers moved to Tampa and the railroad and shipping trade with Havana ceased; the resourceful islanders discovered tourism as their salvation. Visitors to Key West find a number of attractions to enjoy - unique architecture and charming gardens, treasures from shipwrecks, picturesque streets to stroll around, delicious cuisine and scores of souvenir shops and art galleries.

Cozumel lies just a short distance off the coast of the Yucatan. The first Spanish explorers arrived in the 16th century and found various Mayan settlements in different parts of the island. During the 17th and 18th centuries Cozumel was a haven for pirates who lay in wait for rich Spanish galleons that had to stop here for water. The 1960s saw the modern-day tourists arrive, thanks to the publicity resulting from a marine life documentary filmed at the Palancar Reef by famous oceanographer Jacques Cousteau. To this day the most popular activities are skin diving and snorkeling among the colorful reefs surrounding the island. Other activities include the exploration of some recently excavated Mayan ruins, browsing in the many local handicrafts and souvenir shops, or simply relaxing and enjoying the warming rays of the sun. Early in the morning, the ship will anchor for a short time off Playa del Carmen to disembark guests who are participating in the excursions CZM-1 and CZM-2. The ship will then proceed to Cozumel. The Yucatan Peninsula is noted for its wealth of archaeological treasures. Remains of pyramids, temples and palaces bear evidence of ancient civilizations that once thrived on these sundrenched plains. The most famous and visited sites are Chichen Itza and Tulum, offering excellent examples of the once flourishing Toltec-Maya culture.

This small country is not only the birthplace of the Mayan culture but also the geographic center of the area they inhabited, which is why it is known as the Heart of the Mayan World. Guatemala was called “Iximulew”, or Land of Corn, by the Maya, but its main agricultural export today is bananas. It enjoys a mild climate and a variety of ecosystems, including coastal plains, mountains, volcanoes, deserts, forests and jungles. The Mayan culture still dominates and can be seen in the faces of the people living here, the exotic variety of handmade traditional costumes, and the words spoken on the streets. Although Spanish is the most common tongue, you will also hear Garifuna, and up to 23 different Mayan languages. Each ethnic group differs itself from the others by wearing hand-woven textiles with unique patterns and colors, and by speaking their own language. This medley of colorful traditions, costumes and food make Guatemala an interesting country to visit. Inside the cruise terminal at Santo Tomas you will find a colorful market filled with all sorts of handmade crafts. Guatemala's hand-woven and hand-embroidered textiles are famous for their quality and unique designs and are perfect for souvenirs. The designs often have religious or magical meanings, and may identify a certain group or village. Also for sale will be crafts made from wood and stone. To obtain the best prices for your souvenirs, be sure to bargain – room to discount will be built into the price you are first quoted.

The Island of Roatan is filled with pristine beaches, amazing jungle-covered hills, and heartwarming people with a unique blend of cultures. This island paradise is world renowned for its diving and endless water activities. Roatan, a mere 28 miles long and an average of four miles wide is the most developed of the Bay Islands chain located just 40 miles northeast of mainland Honduras. This Caribbean secret is steeped in culture and history and lies just 100 yards off shore to one of the world's largest barrier reef. There are countless opportunities to view the abundant species of coral, tropical fish and aquatic animals. The friendly English-speaking population offers a unique blend of African, Spanish, Paya Indian and British cultures. British and Spanish settlers invaded the Paya as their respective countries fought over possession of Roatan in the 16th century. Soon after, pirates numbering nearly 5,000, including Henry Morgan, claimed Roatan as their stronghold. During the height of the slave trade, Roatan became a dumping ground for rebellious slaves that the British could no long control. These marooned slaves, now called Maroons or Garifuna, form a present day ethnic group near the town of Punta Gorda. This unique mix of people and cultures, presently controlled by Honduras, has created a population that is rich in tradition yet welcoming to visitors.
