Carnival Cruise Line's Celebration Key: A Private Beach Destination
WHY IT MATTERS
Celebration Key's expansion and increased accessibility make it an attractive destination for Carnival Cruise Line passengers, offering a unique and luxurious beach experience with a range of activities and amenities for all ages.
What happened
Celebration Key is Carnival Cruise Line's massive private sun-and-fun playground on Grand Bahama Island. The $100 million pier expansion allows up to four ships to dock simultaneously, making it easier to access the resort.
The resort features five color-coded areas, or 'portals,' each offering a distinct atmosphere and activities for all ages. The portals include Paradise Plaza, Starfish Lagoon, Calypso Lagoon, Pearl Cove Beach Club, and Lokono Cove.
Each portal offers a range of amenities, including beaches, lagoons, dining options, and activities. Guests can upgrade their experience with cabanas, waterslide passes, and guided shore excursions for an additional fee.
