5 Night Cruise sailing roundtrip from Charleston onboard Carnival Sunshine.

Everything the sunlight touches on Carnival Sunshine has been doused with an extra dose of fun. There's plenty to find atop this ship, where you can spend your days being kissed by the warm rays of the sun. Visit the biggest Serenity area ever, featuring three decks, plenty of recliners... and even a waterfall. Carnival WaterWorks, our onboard waterpark, doesn't just deliver the favorites... this one debuted the slick Speedway Splash slide. There's also SportSquare, where you can let your inner champion run free (around the jogging track), traverse SkyCourse high up above, or even engage in a little one-on-one, from ping pong to foosball to giant chess.

When you're on your Carnival Sunshine cruise, step out of the sun and try out some shade (and it's some pretty cool shade, at that). The first thing you'll see is the Sunshine Atrium... and let's just say first impressions count. From there, check out dining options — this ship has everything under the Carnival sun — like Guy's Burger Joint, BlueIguana Cantina, Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse and JiJi Asian Kitchen. Some of the greatest Carnival bars are here: RedFrog Pub, BlueIguana Tequila Bar, SkyBox Sports Bar and Alchemy Bar... plus the already-classic Havana Bar! You'll enjoy musical revues from Playlist Productions, while Hasbro, The Game Show gets cruisers like you up on stage, competing in larger-than-life family favorites come to life.

When you find yourself between the Carnival Sunshine and some actual sunshine, fun at sea is guaranteed.

Highlights of this cruise:

Charleston, South Carolina
Give in to the genteel feel of the old South on Carnival cruises from Charleston, South Carolina. This is a gracious city of antebellum homes and sprawling plantations, best appreciated from the comfort of a horse-drawn carriage. The city’s unique Low country cuisine and dozens of delicious restaurants make it a southern foodie destination. Enjoy warm southern hospitality as you prepare to depart on your cruise from Charleston. Set foot where English settlers first touched land. Learn how the battle for Fort Sumter started the Civil War. Buy a sweetgrass basket to use aboard your Carnival cruise from Charleston. Tuck into Low country-style shrimp and grits at a downtown restaurant. Hop on a horse-drawn carriage for a slow-paced tour of the Historic District.

Half Moon Cay, The Bahamas
Buckle up for big adventure on the Space Coast when you book a Carnival cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida. Rockets blast off from the Kennedy Space Center, stock cars hug the turns at Daytona International Speedway, and screaming roller coasters zoom through Orlando. Even with all the manmade thrills, your cruise from Port Canaveral departs from a coastline of sugary sand beaches and protected islands for native wildlife. See a rocket up close at the Kennedy Space Center. Walk the bustling Cocoa Beach boardwalk before your cruise from Port Canaveral. Ride the intertwining coasters of the Dragon Challenge at Universal Orlando. Pick out colorful clothing at the Ron Jon Surf Shop. Get your hands dirty with the pit crew at Daytona International Speedway.

Nassau, The Bahamas
Blessed by balmy breezes and jumping to a bouncy calypso beat, Carnival cruises to Nassau, Bahamas promise sizzling fun in the sun. The historic and cultural heart of The Bahamas is one of the world’s most popular cruise ship ports—one million travelers board cruises to Nassau annually. Carnival cruisers come for fine beaches, shopping, water sports, and the fun-filled attractions at the Atlantis Resort, connected to Nassau by a bridge to Paradise Island. Shop for straw baskets and Junkanoo crafts in outdoor marketplaces. Kiss a dolphin during a Balmoral Island dolphin swim. Relax on the pink sands of Cable Beach. Stroll 18th-century colonial streets and climb the sandstone Queen’s Staircase.

If you've ever caught a sunrise or sunset at sea, you know that they're the most beautiful kind. The sun has set on Carnival Destiny, a legendary, record-setting ship from the day she debuted. The end? Nope — we’ve transformed this ship into something that shines even brighter. Meet the incredible light of a brand-new dawn, Carnival Sunshine.
