Chal, Goa chalte hai (Let’s go to Goa) is the ultimate weekend refrain for Mumbaikars looking for excitement and a break from city life. If you’re truly looking for a weekend getaway plan that makes waves, or well, in this case, rides the waves, this Mumbai to Goa weekend cruise party checks all the boxes!
Cordelia Cruises is hosting a Mumbai-Goa At Sea -Mumbai cruise party on June 13. And here’s the kicker – it’s a Friday the 13th! Instead of a freak friday full of misfortune and bad luck, you’re in for freaking good time on the high seas.
What’s included in the cruise party?
This one includes a live DJ, accommodation in a well-furnished cabin on the cruise ship and all meals and drinks to fuel you for a weekend of partying. Once you board the cruise ship – The Empress – at the Mumbai Cruise Terminal on June 13, you spend 3 nights at sea.
Explorers have the option to disembark in Goa on June 14th at Panjim City. You’ll have all day to walk around and explore iconic churches, spice plantations, or even sign up for banana boat rides, parasailing, and jet ski experiences in Goa’s capital.
Four days and three nights of parties on the cruise ship
Although we highly doubt you’ll find the time for that. There are themed parties to attend every single day!
On Day 1, the ship’s late-night bar, The Dome, transforms into a fluorescent universe with a neon techno party complete with glow sticks. Pack those swimsuits because the same day will also see you sink into a pool deck party with house music and ice-breaking activities. The day ends with another party to wrap the revelries – a late-night Party Under The Stars dance session.
Day 2 comes armed with more parties – a Tropical party that celebrates Goa’s island life with carnival dancers to up the ante and rock and reggae music to groove to. Show up in your most flamboyant Hawaiian shirts and summer dresses.
The final Day 3 goes all out with an All White Party with retro rock and roll music, sundowners and immaculate peachy sunsets turning the horizon a blaze of colours.
Rock climbing, spas, burlesque shows and kids’ area
Those of you who aren’t party people won’t feel at sea, trust us. You will be spoilt for choice when it comes to activities. The Empress is a towering vessel with 11 decks that are all packed with a variety of lively bars, dining venues and staterooms and cabins that can rival the luxury of Mumbai’s best hotels.
Over 10 different entertainment shows will keep you enthralled at the cruise ship’s Marquee Theatre – think magicians, a Bollywood dance show, comedy and drama skits.
Guests can also spend their time on board with pampering trips to the saloon, spa or the gym. Or give rock climbing and arcade games a go. All this while cruising the Arabian Sea!
For those of you with kids in tow, fret not. You won’t have to drop anchors on partying or having a good time, as this weekend trip also gives you access to the Cordelia Academy, a learning centre for kids of all age groups. Plus, kids sail free!
