Carnival Cruise Line’s Carnival Paradise returned to service on 30 October 2023 following a 16-day dry dock refurbishment in Freeport, The Bahamas.  

Refurbishments were made to the 25-year-old ship’s casino and public areas, as well as the adults-only Serenity Retreat and Piano bar. 

The ship is currently cruising a six-day Western Caribbean roundtrip, visiting Key West in the Florida Keys, Montego Bay in Jamaica and Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands. 

The newly refurbished 2,124-guest ship will offer four-, five-, and six-day cruises from its homeport of Tampa in Florida, USA, with new itineraries featuring visits to Carnival’s upcoming exclusive destination, Celebration Key, in 2025-2026.  

Carnival Freedom also recently returned to service following refurbishment.
