From Tampa, Florida
Cruises from Tampa to Cozumel for scuba diving
Of the 289 sailings from Tampa that stop in Cozumel in the next 12 months, most give the port about 8 to 10 hours, and Celebrity often allows 12. Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Margaritaville at Sea and Norwegian are the main lines calling. A day here is enough for a two-tank boat dive, which takes about half a day, but a day in port is only enough time if you have already booked the boat before you sail.
