Carnival Dream’s Caribbean sailings include six-, seven-, eight-, and 14-day options, with several cruises stopping at Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay. The 14-day sailing features destinations like Barbados, Ocho Rios, St. Kitts, St. Thomas, St. Croix, and St. Maarten.

Carnival Breeze offers four-, five-, and eight-day cruises to Mexico. The shortest itinerary will be to head to Cozumel, while the five-day voyage includes visiting Yucatan (Progreso). The Dream-class vessel’s longest trip adds Costa Maya, Grand Cayman, and Montego Bay to its list of destinations.

Celebration Key

Carnival Cruise Line’s newest resort in the Bahamas, Celebration Key, will open when these itineraries sail.
