Favorite Port of Call with Carnival

[MaiTaiMary]

What is your favorite Carnival port of call you've visited and why? 😎

[JaxsMama]

Aruba and HMC both for the beaches.

I’ve only been to 8 total ports but Carlisle Bay Barbados is my favorite beach when not crowded.

[Garf]

I have been to several, Bermuda would be one of my favorite,

[Bases5]

Barcelona   Just a very historic city.

Grand Turk - leave the port area and go to a beach - calm beautiful water - our favorite port

Where did you go in Dominica?  It’s a beautiful island but I didn’t think much of Roseau or it’s beach area.

[coevan]

we did a snorkel and hike to the waterfalls on a private tour, beautiful

HMC (for the beach) and St Thomas.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I really love Cozumel.  I think the water there is prettier than any other port I've been to, and there's a great shopping area right at the port.

Grand Turk, Belize, Curacao. I can't pick just one!

[coevan]

love the Cays of Belize, Belize City not so much

[deadmoney]

Roatan is a beautiful Island.

[JandPB]

Aruba was amazing. The beaches were top notch. 

[firemanbobswife]

Roatan. So much so I've been there 5 times to stay. It's way better when all the cruise ship people leave!

[coevan]

like most islands, when we lived on our boat in St.Thomas, locals do not go anywhere near Waterfront Rd. on Tuesday or any heavy cruise ship schedule days.

HMC! Curaçao 

[MeganGC1983]

We love Barbados and St. Maarten!

We loved the Cays too and Roatan has always put a smile on our faces when we visit.

Grenada!!!!😁

We fell in love with Puerto Rico. Having so little time on our cruise stops , we were curious to come back to explore the island. Which we have done on land vacations.  
 

As with any place we spend time , it’s the people who make the difference. Doesn’t hurt to have a gorgeous natural environment! PR is blessed with both. ❤️❤️

If the question is Carnival-exclusive, then it is HMC. Beautiful beach without having to pay for access, taxis, or lunch. Other than that, Barbados was really nice.

I was supposed to go on this one a few months after that hurricane destroyed it. I was really looking forward to that one. Such a shame to that island and its people.

It's a shame that this is such a controversial thing to say because it's such a common port. If it was further away and harder to get to, I guarantee people would rave about it more. I always have a blast in Cozumel.

Curacao and Roatan.  

 

Roatan for the snorkeling.  Curacao because it's just a fun city to walk around and the beaches are great.

Grand Turk -- we are booked on a cruise this coming November and I just got notification that our stop to Grand Turk has been replaced with Amber Cove.  I'm SO upset about it.  AC is *okay*, but I love Grand Turk and was SO excited to be going back. 😞
