Creator's Key Takeaways

This place is so cool. Well, we've already taken an entire lap all the way around.

We genuinely looked up the cheapest Carnival cruise out of Florida and booked it for September so that we could come back here specifically.

I'd say absolutely must do. Can't wait to come back.

The sand past those rocks is truly impactable. I mean, you can literally see and the water is crystal clear.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get off the ship early to grab chairs and umbrellas.
βœ“Bring your own cup for drinks to save time.
βœ“Check the weather app and be prepared for rain.
βœ“Use the tram service if needed, but paths are well marked and easy to navigate.
βœ“Try the food trucks or other options if the main food hall is busy.

YouTube Video Description↓

We've gone on most of the big boys: Disney Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean, MSC Cruises, but on our first ever Carnival cruise to Celebration Key, we may have found our new favorite spot! Freshly in it's inaugural season, Celebration Key is a private resort on Grand Bahama Island, so not technically a "private island", but we might like this better!! Incredibly easy to walk straight off your cruise ship and head directly to the stunning beach or massive pools (both for grown ups and families!), or take in some shopping. Did we book another Carnival cruise to come here later this year based solely on our experience today? Yep. #carnivalcruise #carnival #celebrationkey #carnivalcelebrationkey #privateisland #bahamas #cruise #cruiseship
