Where cruises from Tampa actually go
Tampa sits on the Gulf side of Florida, which shapes the whole itinerary map. Mexico and the Western Caribbean are close and cheap to reach; the Bahamas and the Eastern Caribbean mean an extra day at sea in each direction, so those sailings run longer and cost more.
Mexico
Short Gulf runs to Cozumel, Costa Maya and Progreso — the four- and five-night sailings that make up most of Tampa's calendar.
237 sailings · 4–6 nights · from $279
Western Caribbean
The workhorse itinerary out of Tampa. Cozumel, Roatán, Belize City and Costa Maya in some combination, usually over six to eight nights.
179 sailings · 5–15 nights · from $287
Bahamas
Tampa sits on the wrong coast for the Bahamas, so these sailings run longer than the Miami equivalents and often add a Florida or Mexico stop.
36 sailings · 4–7 nights · from $297
Other itineraries
Repositioning runs and multi-region voyages that do not fit a single Caribbean label.
8 sailings · 8–12 nights
Eastern Caribbean
Rare from Tampa. The distance means nine nights or more, so only a handful appear each season.
2 sailings · 9 nights · from $985
Panama Canal
One-way repositioning voyages that leave Tampa and transit the canal. A couple per year, usually in spring.
2 sailings · 13–16 nights · from $1071
