Bahamas Escape – Grand Bahama & Eleuthera

About this cruise

Some of the best trips are the ones you barely had to plan. 5 nights from Jacksonville on July 6, 2026, visiting Celebration Key and Princess Cays, and you're home before the laundry piles up. 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. Don't rush through Princess Cays, which is known as A private slice of Eleuthera's beauty. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Elation has 6 dining spots on board, most of them included. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 2 ports across 5 nights covers a lot.
