5 Night Bahamas Cruise aboard the Carnival Elation

Share

Prepare for five nights of tropical sailing through the Caribbean when you join the Carnival Elation from Jacksonville and back again.

Visiting uncommon cities like Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay makes this trip particularly exciting. This is a typical route for the Elation.

With a cost of less than $100 per day, this is a great value. We include all entertainment, meals, port fees, and taxes in this, so there are no sneaky extra fees.
