Itinerary:

Day 0: Welcome to Miami, FL
 
Iconic colorfully lit buildings and palm trees in Miami, FL
 
Arrive in the Miami area and check-in to our headquarters hotel. We will have a pre-cruise get together and start the trip off right. For those of you who are staying in the Miami  area overnight, take advantage of all there is to see and do. Rev  up for your cruise from Miami with the city’s nonstop action, from party-ready South Beach to the Mediterranean style of Coral Gables, plus spicy Little Havana, which hums to an island beat. Once you’ve experienced all the South Florida architectural beauty, energetic street life and sun-kissed beaches, you may want to extend your stay in the Magic City after your cruise returns. Drink up the sizzling nightlife on boisterous Ocean Drive. Here is a small sample of offerings:
 
  1. See the classic architecture in the South Beach Art Deco historic district.
  2. Grab a cafecito and a Cubano sandwich on Calle Ocho in Little Havana.
  3. Enjoy sightseeing, shopping, beaches, restaurants and bars on a hop-on/hop-off bus.
  4. Glide past gators on an airboat ride in the Everglades.
 
Day 1: Port of Miami, Florida
10:00 AM - 2:30 PM
 
 
Ship departs at 4:00 PM, all passengers must be onboard by 2:30 PM. Boarding appointments will be available approximately 2-3 weeks prior to departure when the online check-in option opens up. Once aboard, proceed immediately to your muster station safety briefing before heading up to the Lido deck for drinks and endless fun. You are officially on vacation and an honorary member of Team No Sleep 💯!  

The sail away party is going to be lit and then it is time to set up your room and get ready for dinner, comedy shows, the casino or the club. Your luggage will arrive later on in the day and you can get settled in. We will have a meet-up later on in the evening so that everyone can officially meet each other. The party will not stop until we get back to Miami  
 
Day 2: Fun Day at Sea

There are always lots of fun activities on board... or just lay back on a deck chair and do nothing at all!
 
Day 3: Ocho Rios, Jamaica
09:00 - 5:00 PM
 
Gorgeous ocean-side pavilion jutting into the waters of Ocho Rios, Jamaica
 
When it comes to dream vacations, an Ocho Rios cruise has to be near the top of the list. Nestled in an emerald Jamaican landscape, Ocho Rios is this island nation’s prime cruise destination. Your cruise to Ocho Rios docks near some of the Caribbean’s most fabled resorts and the cascading waterfalls of Dunn’s River. Enjoy the best of Jamaica on your Carnival cruise to Ocho Rios, whether you’re riding through lush sugarcane fields or touring the waterfront home where a legendary English novelist penned his early secret agent thrillers. From the reggae rhythm to the action-packed activities at Dunn’s River Falls, an Ocho Rios, Jamaica, cruise has all the elements of a blockbuster film — one where you’re the star.
 
Start planning your Caribbean cruise with a call at Ocho Rios today and get ready for your close-up. Here are some memorable recommended activities to pass your port of call away:
  • Climb a 600-ft. waterfall at Dunn’s River Falls.
  • Get behind the wheel of a dune buggy and ride through the tropical Jamaican woodlands.
  • Chill out on a half-moon stretch of sugary sand.
  • Venture in search of the birthplace of reggae and the spirit of Bob Marley.
 
Day 4 Grand Cayman Island
08:00 - 4:00 PM
 
A grand hammock on a peaceful beach in Grand Cayman
 
Cruise to Grand Cayman, go barefoot in the sand and be oh-so- elegant... all in one day. Enjoy laid-back British civility in a sun-splashed Caribbean tropical locale on your Carnival Grand Cayman cruise. Don’t let the island’s scrubland terrain fool you — a spectacular marine paradise lies just offshore, where a living undersea wall tapers off dramatically into the ocean depths. Cruises to Grand Cayman bring you directly to the best scuba diving and snorkeling in the kaleidoscopic Cayman Islands. When you get up close and personal with the resident stingrays and turtles, you’ll soon learn why beach-goers and nature lovers rank cruises to the Grand Cayman as some of the best in the Caribbean. 
 
Long regarded as one of the Caribbean's national treasures, this still will not disappoint the tourist within you. There are many adventures awaiting to be explored during this port of call, consider some of these activities:
  • Stretch out on the glimmering white sands at Seven Mile Beach.
  • Stroll the shops, cafes, and museums in George Town, Grand Cayman.
  • You don’t just go to the stingrays — they come right up to you — at Stingray City.
  • There’s more than just turtles — but oh, are there turtles — at Cayman Turtle Farm..
 
Day 5 Cozumel, Mexico
10:30 - 6:30 PM
 
soak up the sun on playa del carmen in cozumel
 
Cozumel is proof that Mexico can do ‘island flavor’ with the best of the Caribbean. It may not be the biggest island in the sea, but Cozumel offers a huge variety of things to do, see, taste and explore. This island just happens to be perched atop a coral reef, which promises hours of snorkeling or scuba diving fun. Cruises to Cozumel dock at the island’s heart — just minutes from San Miguel’s seafront shops and the white sand beach at Chankanaab National Park. Drift among star corals and sea fans on a Cozumel diving excursion or simply kick back on the beach beneath your own palm palapa as the turquoise waves roll in.
 
With non-stop zip line action, ancient discoveries at the nearby Mayan ruins, or time spent with your toes in the sand, a cruise to Cozumel may just top your best vacations list… before you even get home. Cozumel awaits with such adventures as:
  • Cruise to Cozumel for a scuba diving adventure along the Great Mesoamerican Reef.
  • Enjoy a leisurely day of snorkeling with iridescent fish at Chankanaab National Park.
  • Swim with the flippy guys at Dolphinaris
  • Enjoy the beach and party scene at the Tequila Beach Club
  • Sample local tequilas and other fine spirits.
 
Day 6: Fun Day at Sea
 
guests cheersing with wine glasses in the dining room
There are always lots of fun activities on board... or just lay back on a deck chair and do nothing at all! Don't forget to start packing your bags so you can enjoy your last night of vacation. Unfortunately, this will begin the end of another "FAM"tastic Voyage as we pull into Miami just in time to see the sunrise. Time to tell all of your newfound friends goodbye...
 
Day 7: Miami, FL
Ship arrives at approximately 05:00 AM. Be sure to pick up any liquor you have bought before departing the ship. Shuttles are available to take you and your traveling crew to either Ft. Lauderdale or Miami International Airport. 
 
Feel free to stay another day or make your way back home  after an amazing trip! Safe travels everyone...
