Tropical Getaway – Grand Turk & Puerto Plata

About this cruise

There's a reason 6-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Miami on July 19, 2026 and visits Celebration Key, Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) and Grand Turk Island. Port days and sea days take turns, which is about as well-paced as a cruise itinerary gets. Crossing 3 borders through the Caribbean: Bahamas, Dominican Republic and Turks & Caicos Islands. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Carnival Magic takes the food seriously, with 12 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Miami has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
