Celebration Key sits on the eastern coast of Grand Bahama Island, approximately twenty miles east of Port Lucaya Freeport. Operating as an exclusive resort destination serving exclusively ships operated by Carnival Cruise Line, this purpose-built port officially opened on July 19, 2025. It has quickly become a regular, highly anticipated stop on diverse itineraries departing primarily from Florida homeports on short three- to five-night tropical breaks, as well as extended voyages of seven nights or more.
The sprawling resort centers on a mile-long stretch of pristine white sand and features the largest freshwater lagoons in the entire Caribbean. The destination is thoughtfully organized into five distinct resort portals tailored to different travel styles. Paradise Plaza welcomes arriving guests ashore with live music and comprehensive guest services, while Starfish Lagoon caters specifically to families with engaging waterslides and interactive splash pads. For adult travelers seeking ultimate relaxation, Calypso Lagoon provides a tranquil environment, complemented by the exclusive upgrade amenities of the Pearl Cove Beach Club. Meanwhile, Lokono Cove showcases vibrant local art and authentic Bahamian craftsmanship.
Visitors can explore more than thirty distinct dining and bar locations highlighting genuine local flavors. Over eighty percent of food and retail operators are Bahamian-owned businesses, ensuring travelers directly support the local community while sampling regional cuisine. Traditional Junkanoo performances bring dynamic music and cultural displays to visiting passengers. Beyond lounging on the beach, guests can book exciting shore excursions such as kayaking, snorkeling, glass-bottom boating, and guided Jeep tours around Grand Bahama. Furthermore, Celebration Key holds the proud distinction of being the first cruise destination to earn KultureCity's Sensory Inclusive certification.
