Breezy Escape – Grand Turk & Nassau

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Port Canaveral on May 16, 2026 visits Nassau, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), Grand Turk Island and Celebration Key. Every port day is followed by a sea day, so you get time to sleep in, use the ship, and look forward to the next stop. The route threads through 3 countries along the Bahamas coast: Bahamas, Dominican Republic and Turks & Caicos Islands. Keep an eye out for Celebration Key: Carnival's newest private island escape. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 16 restaurants on Carnival Mardi Gras, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Port Canaveral itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And May is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. That's 7 nights well spent.
