Caribbean Escape – Grand Turk & Nassau

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Port Canaveral on April 11, 2026 visits Grand Turk Island, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), Nassau and Celebration Key. With 2 sea days woven in between port calls, there's time to actually use the ship and recharge. Crossing 3 borders through the Caribbean: Turks & Caicos Islands, Dominican Republic and Bahamas. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Of the stops, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) tends to be the one people talk about: Dominican amber and Atlantic waves. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Carnival Mardi Gras takes the food seriously, with 16 restaurants to choose from. 9 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
