Tampa Welcomes Oceania Cruises in 2026!

Exciting news for Tampa, Florida it will be welcoming the Ultra-Premium cruise line in 2026. Oceania Cruises, known for their incredible destinations and world-class culinary experiences, is bringing the ultra-premium “Insignia” to make Tampa its home port in 2026. This is a huge win for the Port of Tampa, a smaller but charming port, compared to Florida’s bigger ones like Port Canaveral, Miami, and Port Everglades.

Oceania Cruises “Insignia” will offer:

• Luxury and elegance
• Gourmet dining at Polo Grill and their Steakhouse
• Fitness classes
• Expanded library for book lovers
• Bars, lounges and a casino
• sailings from 7 to 20 nights to destinations like St. Thomas, St. Kitts, Panama Canal, Cozumel and more.

Tampa is typically home to smaller ships from lines like Carnival and Royal Caribbean due to the picturesque Sunshine Skyway Bridge that ships sail under before heading out to the Gulf of Mexico. But now, Oceania’s “Insignia” will be adding a touch of luxury to the mix.
