Coconut Coast – Bimini & Nassau
About this cruise
You board in Norfolk on September 13, 2026 for 6 nights visiting Bimini, Nassau and Celebration Key, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. White sand, shallow turquoise flats, and easy island days. The Bahamas keep it simple. Of the stops, Celebration Key tends to be the one people talk about: Carnival's newest private island escape. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Carnival Sunshine keeps you well fed. 15 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Norfolk before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
