Exotic Retreat – 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 Miami on August 30, 2026 visits Nassau, Celebration Key, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) and Grand Turk Island. With 2 sea days woven in between port calls, there's time to actually use the ship and recharge. Crossing 3 borders through the Bahamas: Bahamas, Dominican Republic and Turks & Caicos Islands. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Celebration Key, Carnival's newest private island escape. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Carnival Celebration takes the food seriously, with 18 restaurants to choose from. 11 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. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
