Windswept Palms – Half Moon Cay & Nassau

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Miami on September 19, 2027 and visits Celebration Key, Half Moon Cay, Nassau and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove). The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. 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, Carnival Celebration takes the food seriously, with 18 restaurants to choose from. 11 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 September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
