Exotic Getaway – 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 18, 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. The route threads through 3 countries along the Caribbean coast: Turks & Caicos Islands, Dominican Republic and Bahamas. Don't rush through Grand Turk Island, which is known as Where the shelf drops into the deep blue. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. 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. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All told, 4 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
