Seaside Serenade – Bimini & Nassau

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 6 nights from Norfolk on August 10, 2026, visiting Celebration Key, Nassau and Bimini. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. Around 8 hours per port on average, so pick your priorities beforehand. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Sunshine has 15 dining spots on board, most of them included. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
