Carnival Cruise Line has opened bookings for its 2026-27 sailings from Tampa and Mobile, offering cruises to The Bahamas, the Caribbean and the Panama Canal.

“As America’s cruise line, we continue to sail from more U.S. homeports than any other line and our 2026-27 offerings from Tampa and Mobile are great examples of that commitment to provide our guests with the convenience of sailing from homeports that are a short drive away,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. “With a variety of itineraries, many of which feature our own unique destinations Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay, our guests will have plenty of great vacation options, and our travel advisor partners will have some unique experiences to offer their clients.”

Marking 30 years of year-round sailing from Tampa, the cruise line will continue this tradition in 2026-27, with the Carnival Paradise based in Tampa year-round and Carnival Legend offering seasonal sailings.

The Carnival Paradise will offer a variety of cruises, including four-day Western Caribbean itineraries, four- to six-day Bahamas cruises and five- to six-day Western Caribbean voyages. Destinations include Cozumel, Mahogany Bay, Belize, Grand Cayman, Celebration Key, Princess Cays and Nassau.

From November 2026 to March 2027, the Legend will sail from Tampa on various Western Caribbean and Bahamas itineraries. These include six- and seven-day cruises visiting Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Costa Maya, Belize, Ocho Rios, Montego Bay, Mahogany Bay, Celebration Key, Half Moon Cay and Nassau. Additionally, three eight-day Western Caribbean sailings and two eight-day Panama voyages, with stops in Limon, Costa Rica; Grand Cayman; and Colon, Panama, are available. Guests on these Panama sailings can purchase shore excursions to tour the Panama Canal. A 13-day Carnival Journeys cruise to Panama will also be offered, featuring ports in Aruba, Curacao, Amber Cove and Colon.

The Carnival Spirit will return to Mobile for its seasonal homeport with a special 16-day Carnival Journeys cruise that transits the Panama Canal. The voyage departs Seattle on October 8, 2026, with stops in Cabo San Lucas, Puntarenas, Costa Rica and Cartagena, Colombia. Earlier in the year, Carnival will offer a Carnival Journeys sailing from Mobile to Seattle in April 2026, marking the first cruises connecting the ship’s two seasonal homeports before its summer series in Alaska.

From October 2026 to March 2027, Carnival Spirit will resume its seasonal schedule from Mobile, featuring six-, seven- and eight-day Bahamas cruises. Six-day cruises will include stops at Celebration Key and either Nassau, Bimini, or Princess Cays. Seven-day cruises will visit Celebration Key, Key West, and either Half Moon Cay or Princess Cays and Nassau. Eight-day cruises will feature Key West, Celebration Key, Nassau and either Half Moon Cay or Princess Cays.
