Ocean Odyssey – Saint John, Halifax & Sydney

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 8-night sailing from Norfolk on September 5, 2026 visits Saint John, Halifax and Sydney. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Old harbours, fresh lobster, and autumn leaves if you time it right. Classic New England stuff. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Halifax, Maritime warmth on a harbour-front boardwalk. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Sunshine has 15 dining spots on board, most of them included. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
