    Captain's Tip

    Your cruise departs from Tampa, Florida on the Norwegian Gem, carrying thousands of passengers. Fly in the day before to protect against flight disruptions - the ship won't wait. If you're given an assigned boarding time, showing up earlier sometimes works but isn't guaranteed. Complete your online check-in before arrival. Ybor City is Tampa's historic heart, known for cigar making heritage, colorful architecture, and lively streets.

  3. Belize Cayes - Small tropical island at Barrier Reef with paradise beach - known for diving, snorkeling and relaxing vacations - Caribbean Sea, Belize, Central America

    Harvest Caye, Belize

    December 23, 202611:00 AM – 6:00 PM

    Harvest Caye feels like stepping into a postcard, soft sand underfoot, turquoise water stretching out, and a relaxed island vibe made for an easygoing cruise day.

    Captain's Tip

    Arriving in Harvest Caye, Belize at 11:00 AM with only 7 hours hours before your 6:00 PM departure is a tight window. A ship-arranged shore excursion is the safest play here - you'll get priority disembarkation, and the ship will wait for its own excursions to return. Focus on one or two experiences close to the port. The main beach at Harvest Caye offers soft sand, clear shallow water, and plenty of loungers.

    Captain's Tip

    The Norwegian Gem will be offloading over 2,000 passengers into Roatan, Honduras. A ship-arranged shore excursion is the smoothest way to bypass terminal congestion - these groups often get priority disembarkation. Explore the island's stunning coral reefs through snorkeling or diving tours.

    Cozumel feels like warm Caribbean water and reef blue horizons, palm lined beaches nearby, tacos in the air, and island time settling in fast.

    Captain's Tip

    Your ship arrives in Cozumel, Mexico at 7:00 AM, one of the most common arrival windows. If you've booked a morning excursion, aim to be among the first off. If your plans are flexible, waiting 30-45 minutes lets the initial wave pass. The west side of Cozumel offers calm water and excellent visibility, ideal for snorkeling and swimming.

    Captain's Tip

    Your cruise ends in Tampa, Florida, where the Norwegian Gem is scheduled to dock at 7:00 AM. With over 2,000 passengers, disembarkation groups are called over a one to two hour window - once your group is called, you'll be off in about 15 minutes. Self-assist lets you walk off first. Book your flight at least five hours after the ship's scheduled arrival. Port Tampa Bay is located just minutes from downtown, making it one of the most convenient cruise ports in Florida.
