Tropical Escape – Half Moon Cay & Grand Turk

About this cruise

This one leaves Norfolk on November 27, 2027 and spends 8 nights visiting Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk Island and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 3 countries, from Bahamas to Dominican Republic. Most ports give you about 8 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Freedom has 9 dining spots on board, most of them included. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. 8 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
