Bahamas Escape – Grand Bahama & Eleuthera

About this cruise

Book 5 days off from June 8, 2026 and this cruise from Jacksonville will do the rest, taking you to Celebration Key and Princess Cays and back. The sea days at each end give the whole trip a natural arc: build-up, exploration, cool-down. White sand, shallow turquoise flats, and easy island days. The Bahamas keep it simple. Keep an eye out for Celebration Key: Carnival's newest private island escape. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on Carnival Elation. 5 restaurants come with the fare, plus 1 more when you feel like treating yourself. And June means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. That's 5 nights well spent.
