THE first-ever dog-friendly voyage has been aptly dubbed ‘Cruise Tails’, as voted during a naming contest for the sailing.
Departing from Tampa in Nov 2025 aboard Margaritaville at Sea’s flagship vessel The Islander, the seven-night cruise will visit Key West, Progresso, and Cozumel.
“It was amazing to see such enthusiastic participation from our community, and we appreciate all of the creative names shared,” said Steve Matzke of Cruise Tails, the company organising the voyage in partnership with Expedia Cruises of Orlando.
“We’re thrilled to be able to provide such a unique travel experience where dogs are not just allowed, but celebrated as part of the family.”
The cruise will feature a wide variety of amenities for four-legged guests, including pet-friendly cabins featuring a ‘pet butler’, as well as dog groomers and dog-friendly splash stations.
Cruise Tails said it will consider offering additional pet-friendly voyages in 2026 if the first one is a success.
