My Amazing Royal Caribbean Cruise from Galveston to Costa Maya and Cozumel

 

There’s something magical about setting sail on a Royal Caribbean cruise, and my recent trip from Galveston to Costa Maya and Cozumel was an unforgettable experience. From the moment my wife and I stepped aboard, we were blown away by the sheer size and beauty of the ship—it was like a floating city packed with entertainment, incredible food, and stunning ocean views. I even made a YouTube video covering the entire trip, so if you want to see the highlights firsthand, be sure to check it out!

One of the first things I did was head to the sports deck, which quickly became one of my favorite spots. I jumped into some intense basketball games, dodged and dove during dodgeball matches, and even challenged myself on the rock climbing wall, which was both fun and a serious workout. No matter what kind of activity you enjoy, there’s something for everyone on board.

Of course, one of the best parts of any cruise is the food, and Royal Caribbean did not disappoint. The buffet was absolutely amazing, offering everything from fresh seafood to Indian cuisine and decadent desserts. Whether we were grabbing a quick breakfast before heading to shore or indulging in a late-night snack, there was always something delicious waiting. Even the pizza was surprisingly good!

Another unexpected highlight was the full-size arcade. I was excited to find a couple of retro titles among the modern machines. In the evenings, we made sure to catch some of the spectacular shows onboard. From Broadway-style performances to comedy acts and live music, Royal Caribbean knows how to entertain. We enjoyed the ice skating show so much we went to an encore performance!

When we arrived at Costa Maya and Cozumel, we got to explore beautiful beaches, shop for souvenirs, and soak in the vibrant culture of Mexico. Whether it was relaxing by the crystal-clear water or enjoying tacos and margaritas, each stop added something special to the trip.

From start to finish, my Royal Caribbean cruise was an adventure packed with fun, food, and unforgettable memories. If you're thinking about taking a cruise from Galveston, I highly recommend it. And don’t forget to watch my YouTube video for a closer look at the trip!
