Turquoise Horizon – Bimini & Nassau

About this cruise

This one leaves Norfolk on March 29, 2026 and spends 6 nights visiting Celebration Key, Nassau and Bimini at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. As for the ship itself, Carnival Sunshine takes the food seriously, with 15 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. Norfolk has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You start in Norfolk and come back with stories from Celebration Key, Nassau and Bimini.
