Golden Horizon – San Juan & St. Thomas

About this cruise

By January 23, 2027 you'll be ready for this. 8 nights out of Miami, visiting Half Moon Cay, San Juan, Philipsburg and St. Thomas, and nothing on the agenda except showing up. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. Crossing 4 borders through the Caribbean: Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Sint Maarten and U.S. Virgin Islands. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Carnival Magic takes the food seriously, with 12 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Miami has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 8-night sailing is a strong place to start.
