Tropical Haven – Nassau & Half Moon Cay

About this cruise

This one leaves Norfolk on July 5, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Half Moon Cay, Nassau and Celebration Key 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 Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. 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 Sunshine keeps you well fed. 15 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 7-night sailing is a strong place to start.
