Day 1
Welcome to Tampa, Florida – the gateway to an epic five-day voyage!
Welcome to Tampa, a bustling coastal city known for its Cuban culture, amusement parks, and stellar beaches. You might be extending your trip by enjoying this killer town for a few days or flying in day-of. No matter your choice, make your way to Carnival Paradise and get ready to set sail! The ship departs at 4:00 pm, but the crew is awaiting your arrival. Check-in at the desk, head to your room, and prepare for an adventure to the Caribbean islands. This ship has so much to offer, so start exploring. Grab a bite or a drink to kick off the trip, catch a movie on the main deck, or head to one of the lounges and sink into vacation living. From action to relaxation, this ship has it all!
Day 2
Free day on the ship to do it your way
Good morning, cruisers! You have the entire day to yourself to rest, relax, play, and explore on the ship. If you’re looking to chill on this five-day getaway, head to the spa, the adults-only Serenity Deck, the boutique stores for some retail therapy, or simply hang at one of the lounges with a bottle of champagne. It’s always five o’clock somewhere on the boat! If you’re looking to shake things up, enjoy the various waterslides, play on the sky course and get that adrenaline pumping, or head to the sports deck and play a game of volleyball or basketball. When the sun sets, the action doesn’t stop. Grab your crew and eat a delicious dinner at one of the many restaurants, try your luck at the casino, or head to one of the clubs and dance the night away. Carnival Paradise is a choose-your-own-adventure style cruise ship. Live it up!
Day 3
Enjoy a full day in Cozumel to play, relax, and explore
Cozumel is the best of all worlds. You can have a relaxing day on the pristine shoreline or get adventurous and see everything the island has to offer. After breakfast, make your way off the ship and book an all-inclusive Chankanaab Beach day with food, snorkeling, Mayan history, and a trip to the botanical gardens or explore Punta Sur Park, Cozumel's Ecological Reserve, in an off-road Jeep. You can also add a boozy catamaran ride, swim with the dolphins, take a boat ride to Passion Island, or head to La Casa Beach Retreat, an adults-only resort with an open bar and private chef on the beach. From Mayan ruins to adventure parks, this stop has it all! We’ll get back on the boat at 4:00pm and head to our next destination. Make dinner plans with friends new and old, catch a show in the theater lounge, or check out the comedy club for a night filled with laughs.
Day 4
Spend the day on Seven Mile Beach in Grand Cayman
Rise and shine! After another great night on the ship, it’s time to explore. Today, we’ll dock in Grand Cayman and have a full day to enjoy the beautiful beaches. The Cayman Islands are known for diving and snorkeling, so take advantage of this opportunity to discover the beauty waiting beneath the sea. However, there is so much more to see! Head to the markets, book a rum tour, check out the crystal caves, or spend the day swimming with dolphins and stingrays. We’ll get back on the boat and depart at 6:00 pm, so enjoy your time on this heavenly island.
Day 5
Free day on the ship to enjoy the various amenities and activities
We conquered two islands in two days. What a trip! Today, we slow down the pace and enjoy a full day on the ship as we head back to Tampa. What haven’t you explored? There is so much to do in this oceanic wonderland! Catch a show, play games with friends in the Sports Square, relax by the pool with a cold drink, or enjoy one of the fine dining options before heading to the Lido Deck for one of Carnival’s famous Mega Parties. When the sun goes down, the music turns up and the whole boat lets loose. You have one last night on the ship. Make it count!
Day 6
Enjoy one last breakfast before disembarking
Wake up slowly, eat one last meal on the ship, and say goodbye to a stellar experience. Make sure you grab those names and numbers of all your new friends before you pack up and disembark! From here, you can head to the airport or spend a few days in Tampa exploring Cuban history, the museums, the beaches, and the fun. No matter where your next journey takes you, we hope you had a memorable trip and will cruise with us again! Safe travels!
