Tropical Escape – Half Moon Cay & Grand Turk

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 8-night round-trip sailing from Norfolk on March 18, 2028 visits Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk Island and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove). The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 3 countries, from Bahamas to Dominican Republic. People come back from this cruise talking about Grand Turk Island: Where the shelf drops into the deep blue. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Freedom has 9 dining spots on board, most of them included. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. 3 ports, 3 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
