Caribbean and Bahamas: Bahamas Cruise

Carnival Cruise Line

You know the name and the laid-back attitude, but you'll just have to visit The Bahamas to truly appreciate this classic cruise destination. On this 700-strong string of sun-splashed islands dotting the blue Atlantic, the living's easy. (And it's not bad on a Bahamas cruise either!) The central port of Nassau is the bustling capital of the country — "bustling" is a relative term, of course.
