Review summary

We enjoyed Half Moon Cay the most. Atlantis was rather rushed. Needed more time there due to the amount of time needed to and from the boat. Comedy on boat was good and enjoyed the Hasbro game.

Small and cramped but thankfully didn't spend much time there. Also didn't care for only being able to get room cleaned AM or PM as 2 days we weren't out of room by 8:30 to get it done.

Ship tip

It's an older, smaller ship but plenty to do. I think it was good for first cruise and will definitely cruise with Carnival again.

Ports of call

Charleston, South Carolina

Dolphin experience at Atlantis was good but time was rushed. Don't purchase water park and dolphin, not enough time!

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Purchase the clamshells and enjoy the water!
