For guests looking for longer voyages, Carnival Miracle will offer 10-day cruises calling at destinations such as Celebration Key, Carnival’s new exclusive destination in Grand Bahama opening in 2025, and Grand Turk and Amber Cove.

Carnival Elation, meanwhile, will offer year-round cruises from Jacksonville to the Bahamas from January 2026 to April 2027. These will include four- and five-day cruises featuring stops at Celebration Key and Nassau. Select itineraries will visit Bimini and five-day options also offer an additional stop at Half Moon Cay or Princess Cays.
