Considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Industrial World, the Panama Canal provides a unique opportunity to cruise between the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean. Some Caribbean cruises will include just a partial transit of the canal up to Gatun Lake, but others will have a full transit included, generally including ports in Coastal Mexico, Central America and the Southern Caribbean.
When to visit?
Most cruises will cruise through the Panama Canal in the northern winter, from October to April when the weather is generally warmer and it is the dry season in Central America.
