Tropical Escape – Half Moon Cay & Grand Turk

About this cruise

This one leaves Norfolk on February 5, 2028 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. The Caribbean route takes in Bahamas, Turks & Caicos Islands and Dominican Republic, 3 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Most ports give you about 8 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Carnival Freedom keeps you well fed. 9 places to eat, with 6 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. The sweet spot for most travellers: you get to know the ship, see the ports, and come home before the laundry piles up. You start in Norfolk and come back with stories from Bahamas, Turks & Caicos Islands and Dominican Republic.
