PORTS OF CALL

Port Canaveral, Florida

Port Canaveral is the gateway to Florida's "Space Coast," a region where monumental human achievement meets serene natural wonder. The primary draw is the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, an essential experience for any inquisitive mind. Here, you can stand in the presence of the Space Shuttle Atlantis, marvel at the sheer scale of a Saturn V rocket, and gain a profound appreciation for the scientific dedication that propelled humanity beyond Earth's atmosphere. It is an intellectually stimulating day that perfectly balances education with awe.

Beyond the launchpads, the region offers a tranquil escape. The Canaveral National Seashore provides miles of pristine, undeveloped coastline—a perfect setting for a quiet walk or simply relaxing by the Atlantic. For a more immersive encounter with the local ecosystem, consider a kayaking excursion through the Banana River Lagoon, where you may glide past gentle manatees and wading birds in their natural habitat. The adjacent Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge is a sanctuary for hundreds of species, offering a peaceful counterpoint to a demanding professional life.

While the world-famous attractions of Orlando are just an hour's drive, the area offers more than theme parks. Discover the sophisticated charm of Winter Park, with its upscale boutiques and cafes along Park Avenue, or admire the world's most comprehensive collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany's works at the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art. For a more local flavor, historic Cocoa Village presents a walkable district of quaint shops, art galleries, and riverside dining, capturing the relaxed essence of “Old Florida.”

Coco Cay, Bahamas

Let's be clear: Coco Cay is not a port for cultural immersion; it's a private island meticulously engineered for a perfect day of sun and fun. Think of it as a high-end water park and beach club rolled into one, accessible right off the ship. The island is divided into distinct zones, from the high-energy Thrill Waterpark with its impressive slides to the sprawling Oasis Lagoon, one of the largest freshwater pools in the Caribbean.

For those seeking relaxation, several white-sand beaches offer a classic tropical escape. If you're looking for a more exclusive, serene experience, the Coco Beach Club provides a quieter atmosphere with an infinity pool and overwater cabanas, available for an additional fee. While you won't find local markets or historical sites here, Coco Cay delivers exactly what it promises: a seamless, high-quality day of resort-style leisure and aquatic adventure.

At Sea - Cruising

Cozumel, Mexico

Let's be direct: Cozumel is one of the world's busiest cruise ports, and it's essential to have a plan to navigate the crowds and find its genuine highlights. The island's global reputation is built on what lies just offshore: the Mesoamerican Reef, the second-largest barrier reef system in the world. For divers and snorkelers, this is a premier, bucket-list destination. The clear, warm water and vibrant coral formations of sites like the Palancar and Colombia reefs are genuinely world-class. For an accessible taste without a dedicated boat trip, parks like Chankanaab or the more remote Punta Sur Eco Beach Park offer excellent snorkeling directly from shore, combined with beaches and other amenities.

Many are drawn by the allure of Mayan ruins, but here’s a critical piece of advice: the famous sites like Tulum and Coba are on the mainland, not on Cozumel. Reaching them requires a 45-minute ferry to Playa del Carmen and then a bus journey, consuming nearly your entire day. While magnificent, choosing this option means forgoing the island experience entirely. It's a trade-off you must be comfortable with.

If you stay on the island, the main town of San Miguel offers a bustling waterfront and a dizzying array of shops. We recommend walking a few blocks inland from the main tourist thoroughfare to find more authentic local restaurants for a fantastic lunch. For pure relaxation, Cozumel’s beach clubs are a popular and effective choice. They range from lively, all-inclusive party spots with water toys to more serene, upscale retreats where the focus is on a good book and a great cocktail. You can easily find one that matches your pace. Cozumel is a highly developed tourism hub that excels at water sports and beach relaxation; embrace it for these strengths, and you’ll have a fantastic day.

Roatan, Honduras

Roatan’s reputation is built on one magnificent, undeniable asset: its location on the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second-largest in the world. For anyone with an interest in the underwater world, this is a premier, world-class destination. The snorkeling and diving here are not just activities; they are the main event, offering accessible, vibrant coral gardens and a rich diversity of marine life just offshore.

Beyond the reef, Roatan delivers a classic, high-quality Caribbean beach experience. The key is choosing the right spot for your mood. West Bay Beach is the island’s postcard-perfect star, with powdery white sand and calm, turquoise waters ideal for a relaxing day. For a more bohemian and active vibe, the adjacent village of West End offers a lively strip of dive shops, laid-back restaurants, and local artisan stalls.

While the island’s interior is lush and hilly, most day visitors understandably stick to the coast. You’ll find opportunities for zip-lining and visiting animal sanctuaries, which can be enjoyable diversions. However, our honest advice is to focus on Roatan’s strengths. This isn’t a destination for deep cultural immersion or historical sightseeing. It is, quite simply, a stunning natural paradise. Embrace it for what it is: an exceptional opportunity to swim, snorkel, or simply relax on one of the Caribbean’s most beautiful shorelines.

Costa Maya, Mexico

It’s best to think of Costa Maya not as a historic town, but as a modern, purpose-built gateway to the southern Yucatán’s authentic treasures. The port itself is a clean, self-contained village with pools, shops, and restaurants—a perfectly pleasant, if manufactured, way to spend a few hours. For a more genuine experience, we highly recommend venturing beyond its walls.

A short taxi ride brings you to the neighboring fishing village of Mahahual. Here, a laid-back beachfront boardwalk, or *malecón*, is lined with local restaurants and unpretentious beach clubs, offering a true taste of coastal Mexican life. The real cultural highlight, however, is the access to lesser-visited Mayan ruins. An excursion to the Chacchoben ruins offers a fascinating and accessible glimpse into ancient history, set within the jungle and free from the overwhelming crowds of more famous sites. For pure natural beauty, the nearby Bacalar Lagoon—the famed “Lagoon of Seven Colors”—provides a stunningly beautiful and tranquil setting for a day on the water. Costa Maya is an excellent, comfortable base for exploring these worthwhile regional highlights.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
  • Lost/stolen travel documents
  • Pre-trip information
