Carnival Adding More Cruises With Grand Bahama Stops

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - October 26, 2023

Carnival Cruise Line is adding more cruise itineraries to the Caribbean including its in-development new port on Grand Bahama. 

The new Celebration Key, set to open in Grand Bahama, will be featured in a number of cruises starting in 2025 when it debuts. 

That includes 100 new sailings, which will mean a total of 500 different sailings stopping in Grand Bahama across 18 Carnival ships from 19 homeports. 

The newest addition is the Port of Tampa, the latest Carnival homeport to add visits to Celebration Key. 

In 2025, the cruise line will sail four to six-day cruises out of Tampa, with stops in Grand Bahama, Nassau and Bimini, along with Cozumel and Mahogany Bay. 

From Miami, Carnival Horizon, Carnival Magic and Carnival Sunrise will be stopping in Celebration Key as well, joined by Carnival Vista from Port Canaveral.
