Ethereal Float – Bahamas from Jacksonville

About this cruise

Book 5 days off from October 3, 2026 and this cruise from Jacksonville will do the rest, taking you to Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay 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. Celebration Key alone is worth the trip, Carnival's newest private island escape. Roughly 8 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 October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Worth booking. That's the short version.
