During the 2019-20 Cuba season, Carnival Cruise Line will offer 23 sailings to Havana. Those will happen aboard five different ships departing from four convenient East Coast homeports. That’s more than any other cruise line, for good reason.  Guests on Carnival Cuba cruises can select from nearly 20 different shore tours.  On board, they find a variety of Cuban-themed activities and entertainment, Havana-inspired deck parties, trivia contests, salsa lessons and more.

First, the four ships

1. Carnival Sunshine from Charleston,
2. Carnival Triumph from Fort Lauderdale,
3. Carnival Paradise from Tampa
4. Carnival Victory and Carnival Sensation from Miami.

 

3,002-passenger Carnival Sunshine will be the largest cruise ship to ever call in Havana while offering the first-ever cruise to Cuba from the Port of Charleston.

With the newly added voyages, Carnival Cruise Line will offer a wide variety of Havana departures across a broad spectrum of ships and itineraries, providing consumers with unprecedented choice in visiting this fascinating and sought-after destination.

The visits to Havana comply with regulations of the U.S. Department of Treasury that permit travel operators to transport approved travelers to Cuba to engage in activities as defined by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Office of Foreign Assets Control. Carnival’s shore excursions meet all U.S. government regulations and provide a convenient means for complying with the people-to-people requirements of cruises to Cuba.
