Are you dreaming of a tropical escape to the sun-drenched shores of the Caribbean? Perhaps taking a bucket-list voyage through the Panama Canal?

Oceania Cruises is offering a collection of Caribbean and Panama Canal sailings from our newest destination.

Beginning in winter 2026, Oceania Insignia will set sail from the Gulf Coast gem of Port Tampa Bay on Florida’s west coast, which provides an ideal jumping-off (or disembarkation) point for your next tropical adventure and gives you additional flexibility and choice when planning your getaway.

And with a wide array of things to see and do in this cosmopolitan city, you’ll want to plan leisure time before or after your cruise to explore all that Tampa has to offer.

Dive into the unique vibe of historic Ybor City, known for its cigar culture, Cuban food and lively nightlife. Enjoy outdoor fun during a stroll along the Tampa Riverwalk or in Hyde Park. Check out the exhibits in the city’s numerous museums such as the Henry B. Plant Museum or the Tampa Museum of Art. Sip a perfectly prepared margarita as you relax on a beautiful stretch of white sand.

And, of course, there’s the cuisine. Tampa is the perfect match for the world’s only true foodie cruise line thanks to its vibrant culinary scene, from street food experiences to high-end gourmet dining at venues from a variety of Michelin Guide restaurants
