Tropical Escape – Puerto Plata & Bahamas

About this cruise

You sail from Port Canaveral on May 24, 2026 and spend 6 nights visiting Celebration Key, Half Moon Cay and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove). It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. The pace alternates neatly: port day, sea day, port day, sea day. 3 stops with a breather between each one. The Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. Most ports give you about 9 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 Vista has 14 dining spots on board, most of them included. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 6-night sailing is a strong place to start.
