Carnival Cruise Line has relaunched operations to the Caribbean out of Charleston, SC, Caribbean Journal has learned.

The Carnival Sunshine ship has kicked off its return voyage with a four-day cruise to Nassau in The Bahamas.

“We have been sailing from Charleston for 12 years, so we are excited to be back offering guests from all over the southeastern U.S. the opportunity to cruise from this beautiful, historic and charming community, all while providing support to the local economy,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. 

Carnival Sunshine will be sailing year round out of Charleston, with both Bahamas and Caribbean voyages.

Carnival has 19 ships already in operations, with three remaining US-based ships set to resume in March.

All Carnival voyages require full vaccination, along with a 48-hour negative test in order to board.
