Start 2010 as you mean to go on, with a little adventure! Sailing you off the beaten track, this 15 night fly cruise combines a Panama Canal transit with the white-sand beaches of the Caribbean and the exotic ports of Puerto Quetzal, Huatulco and the famous resort of Acapulco. With Tate experts on board, you can even learn more about the art world as you sail.

Exclusive to P&O Cruises, this cruise features a series of fun and informative talks on modern art and creative workshops, led by Tate Modern experts.

First time cruisers will love the atmosphere of this ship. As will those looking for a spontaneous and sociable style of cruise holiday. Laugh. Relax. Enjoy. Oceana’s wide range of entertainment and facilities appeal to all ages. You can play tennis in her sports court – housed in her funnel. Unwind in her whirlpool spas. Try your luck in the casino. And dance the night away in Le Club.

Watch as Oceana is guided through a series of three gigantic locks, by electric ‘mules’, into the Gatun lakes, surrounded by dense jungle and the chatter of wildlife. Crossing into the Pacific, you come to Guatemala – a land of tropical jungles, waterfalls, coffee farming, mountain lakes, volcanoes and Mayan ruins. Mexico follows and after a full day in Huatulco, it is from Acapulco, with its famous death-defying cliff divers and stunning coastlines that, after an overnight stay, you fly home.
