Carnival Cruise Line recently celebrated their 3 millionth guest to board one of their cruise ships since the cruise line resumed sailings last year.
Over the past year, Carnival Cruise Line has made over 3,000 port visits to 92 ports in 32 countries. Here are the five cruise ports in the Caribbean and Bahamas that Carnival cruise ships visited the most since the launch.
5. Mahogany Bay, Honduras – Carnival’s fifth most visited cruise port was Mahogany Bay with 123 ship calls. Carnival Cruise Line built this port area in Roatan a few years ago and offers a private beach area just for cruise guests.
4. Half Moon Cay, Bahamas – One of Carnival Corporation’s private islands in the Bahamas, Half Moon Cay has been rated by many publications as the cruise line’s best private island. With a long crescent-shaped beach and powdery white sand, it’s easy to see why this was Carnival’s fourth most visited port with 155 ship visits.
3. Amber Cove, Dominican Republic – Amber Cove opened seven years ago and is another cruise port built by Carnival Corporation. The harbor area features shopping, a large freshwater pool, ziplining and overwater cabanas. Carnival cruise ships visited Amber Cove 159 times last year.
2. Nassau, Bahamas – The most visited cruise port in the Bahamas, Nassau ranked second on Carnival’s list of most visited ports. Carnival ships stopped at Nassau 320 times, an average of just under one ship per day.
1. Cozumel, Mexico – Of the 3,000 port calls made by Carnival, about 800 of them were in Mexico. Cozumel was Carnival’s most visited Caribbean cruise port last year with their cruise ships visiting the popular port 385 times.
Almost all Western Caribbean cruises make a port call in Cozumel and it is consistently ranked as one of the most popular cruise ports in the Caribbean/Bahamas.
