Velvet Current – Celebration Key & Half Moon Cay
About this cruise
5 nights is all it takes to completely reset. This cruise from Jacksonville on April 3, 2027 visits Half Moon Cay and Celebration Key and you'll feel it from day one. You start at sea, hit the ports, then finish at sea. The ports feel like the centrepiece, framed by lazy ocean days. The Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. 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, There are 6 restaurants on Carnival Elation, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 5 nights. An April departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. You start in Jacksonville and come back with stories from Half Moon Cay and Celebration Key.
