Bahamas was wonderful and acted like locals, rode the local bus to the beach and spent the day at Love beach, returned on the bus to do some lunch and local shopping. Overall it was a great day !

Highly recommend the Carnival Sunshine and Port of Charleston. My wife and I took our preteen daughters on a four-day cruise to Nassau. Stayed in suite 9107 which has a floor-to-ceiling window instead of balcony. On our second day at sea saw dolphins

Great Service but Crazy Party Cruise, 2/27-3/2

Wonderful cruise. Very friendly people!
