Cozumel, Quintana Roo — The cruise ship Margaritaville at Sea Paradise made its inaugural call in Cozumel on Tuesday, carrying more than 1,300 passengers and crew members.
The vessel docked at the SSA Mexico International Cruise Terminal, where local officials and company representatives held a traditional plaque exchange ceremony.
According to federal data recently released by the Tourism Department, Mexican ports received 3.6 million cruise passengers in the first quarter of 2026, a 9.9% increase compared to the same period last year.
During their stay, passengers and crew visited various tourist attractions on the island, including beaches, shopping areas, and natural sites.
The arrival of the Margaritaville at Sea Paradise adds to Cozumel’s steady stream of cruise traffic throughout the year. The island maintains one of the largest cruise operations in Latin America, driven by its strategic Caribbean location and port infrastructure.
