Celebration Key

Carnival currently owns two private islands under sister brands of Princess and Holland America. Some Carnival ships visit the two islands on some of the itineraries.

In exciting news from a few weeks ago, Carnival introduced Celebration Key in Grand Bahama island which will be the private beach destination exclusive to Carnival.

The destination will open in 2025 and the plans sound amazing.

I previously wrote about the beach destination in this article.

Private Island

While Celebration Key is not a specific private island it will feel like one to cruise passengers getting to visit.

The destination will be exclusive to Carnival and it will offer all the amenities of other cruise private islands such as Princess Cays, Half Moon Cay as well as NCL’s Great Stirrup Cay.

The destination will include various areas for fun in the sun as well as shore excursions.

The destination will be accessible via a dock so no tendering will be required.

From the artist rendition above there will be multiple swimming pools, sports areas and plenty of places to enjoy the sun and ocean from the beach.

New Itineraries

Carnival announced the initial sailings that will visit the island and it will be available on many of Carnival’s ships.

The plans include three and four night sailings on Carnival Conquest, Carnival Freedom, and Carnival Glory.

In addition there will be four and five night sailings available on Carnival Elation. Six and eight day sailings are offered on Carnival Sunshine and Carnival Spirit.

Of course the newest Carnival ships including Mardi Gras, Carnival Celebration will offer seven night sailings to the beach destination along with other seven night and longer sailings on a few other ships.

The itineraries are now available for booking on Carnival.
