Cruise Panama: From the Big Blue Sea
by Adam Lenk
The workings of the Panama Canal are a sight to behold whether
or not you're a history buff or mechanically inclined. The Panama Canal was
completed in 1914, at the cost of 30,000 people's lives and funding from two
nations.
Today, most of the original innovations and machinery is still utilized.
However, there's no better way to tour the canal than in a firsthand experience
through its passage.
Touring the Panama Canal by cruise ship makes for an amazing vacation and a
historical adventure. It takes about eight hours to make the passage through
three locks, which raise the ship solely through gravity through the manmade
canal over Central America. Head for the deck to watch your ship line up in the
morning to pass through the canal. A canal historian aboard the ship will serve
as your guide and provide a running commentary of interesting details and
fascinating facts about the Panama Canal's construction and operational history.
The best part of about cruising the Panama Canal is that you not only take in
Panama's ports like Colon, Cristobal, Isla San Telmo, or Isla de Coiba and the
Canal's amazing views but that these tours usually include several stops at
glorious in-route ports of call, which may include Mexico's Cozumel, Puerto
Vallarta, or Acapulco, the Cayman Islands, Costa Rica's Limon, Caldera, or
Guanacaste, and even Jamaica's Montego Bay.
Exert yourself by day via on-shore Panama Canal cruise excursions like tours of
Panama City, the Gutun Locks, or the Embera Indian Village, canal kayaking
adventures among the Colon wildlife, or take in the sights and experiences of
the other visited port cities.
Experience a natural world unlike any other, and then return to the coziness and
elegance of your cruise ship's fine dining room and a cabin with a view. Enjoy
the ship's nightlife and entertainment, shopping, and fine dining between visits
to a plethora of eye-catching views and an exploratory journey of the Panama
Canal and beyond.
