Guests can savor everything from refined Italian cuisine at Marco Polo and Canal Grande Restaurants to casual favorites like La Strada Grill™, Tomodoro™, and Guy’s Burger Joint — all complemented by specialty cocktail lounges, sparkling wine bars, and curated Italian wine experiences.


Evenings come alive with Playlist Productionsâ„¢ at Teatro Rosso and the elegant atmosphere of the Gondola Lounge.


Alongside its Italian flair, Carnival Venezia delivers the classic experiences Carnival guests love — including Cloud 9 Spa™, Serenity Adult-Only Retreat™, WaterWorks™, SportSquare™, and a variety of dining and entertainment venues designed for relaxation, connection, and fun at sea.


ITINERARY

Aerial view of a pristine white sand beach with turquoise waters and palm trees along a tropical coastline.

Day 1: Port Canaveral (Orlando)

Departs at 3:30 PM

Buckle up for big adventure on the Space Coast when you book a Carnival cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida. Fun in the sun is a mission easily accomplished in Port Canaveral: before or after your cruise, take time to blast off from the Kennedy Space Center, hug the turns in a stock car at the world famous speedway, and zoom through the screaming roller coasters of Orlando's theme parks. In addition to all these man-made thrills, cruises from Port Canaveral depart from a coastline of sugary sand beaches and protected islands for native wildlife.


Aerial view of a massive turquoise lagoon pool with bridges and islands surrounded by resort buildings and palm trees.

Day 2: Celebration Key™

7:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Celebration Key — a new exclusive destination from Carnival, nestled on the south side of Grand Bahama island, that's designed for Carnival guests, unforgettable experiences like a mile-long white sand beach, the largest freshwater lagoons in the Caribbean† and five “portals” for you to enjoy. 

Paradise Plaza™ will be the first portal to explore, welcoming you ashore with guest information, live music, photo ops and more. 


A selection of sports courts offering basketball, beach volleyball and pickleball action. Calypso Lagoon™ is designed for adults ready to relax... or go for more of an active vibe, with lagoon-side swim-up and swings bars, a DJ island and more. 


Pearl Cove Beach Club™ welcomes adults — and only adults — to take paradise to the next level with great ocean views, infinity pool, swim-up bar, elevated dining, plus attentive service poolside or beachside. Lokono Cove™ offers goods from local artisans, plus showcases Bahamian art, music, history and culture.


Historic El Morro fortress stands majestically on rocky cliffs overlooking the blue Caribbean Sea in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Day 4: San Juan

1:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Cruises from San Juan, Puerto Rico offer a magical blend of natural island charm and man-made wonders. Historic San Juan, once nothing more than cobblestone streets and the distinctive architecture of the Spanish who founded it, is now a modern world capital. And, as you’ll see on Carnival’s cruises from Puerto Rico, it’s kept these classical features! Among the peaceful shaded courtyards and commanding colonial fortresses of El Morro and San Cristobal, urban explorers will find a cosmopolitan city of wide boulevards, lively cafés, highly-regarded galleries and designer boutiques… not to mention gold-sand beaches and nearby rainforest jungles. San Juan, Puerto Rico is where the old world meets the new.

Day 5: St. Thomas

7:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Cruises that visit St. Thomas offer some of the best photo opportunities in the Caribbean. That’s why a Carnival cruise to the Virgin Islands tops many folk’s vacation wish lists. Seafarers from around the globe have flocked to the sheltered harbors of St. Thomas since pirates sailed these seas. Today, cruises to St. Thomas dock in one of the busiest and most developed ports in the West Indies: Charlotte Amalie, the island’s historic capital. Immerse yourself in the rhythm of the market bustle, and swing to the beat of scratch bands. Or plant yourself on a beautiful beach and relax the day away. The choice is yours when you cruise to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands.


People dancing and socializing at a lively party or celebration in a warmly lit venue with decorative elements.

Day 3, 6, 7: Fun Day at Sea


No port today! It’s a great time to explore your ship and its exciting entertainment, food and activities! Or take it easy at the pool, spa, or... if you book a room with a balcony, enjoy the waves.

Serenity Adult-Only Retreat

Somebody at Carnival knows just what you need, and it's pretty much exactly the Serenity Adult-Only Retreat™. Look, you'll still be on the same ship as the kids, the hoopla, and all the Carnival-style excitement… but you could easily forget, because when you’re at Serenity you could not be further from it all. The world you'll find yourself in is one of complete peace, sea breezes and, of course, a nearby bar. It's the place to get done the kind of stuff you just can't seem to do anywhere else — reconnect with your partner, finish that book, or do absolutely, blissfully, nothing at all.
