Carnival Cruise 2020

Me and my partner are looking at taking our second Carnival cruise in September or December to the western Caribbean (Key West, Cozumel). Anyone else planning a cruise during this time with Carnival Cruise Lines? Current date sets we are looking at are 9/1-9/13 and 12/14-12/27

We are doing the eastern Caribbean 12/17 out of Galveston. The Key West - Bahamas is one of our favorites. We just couldn't get the time or cash together for it so we had to settle for a short one.

I think we are doing the same cruise but at the end of September 2021. My wife has always wanted to see Key West and this will be to celebrate our 35th anniversary. Ours will be 8 day. Id be interested in hearing how your cruise went.
Thanks,
Centex

They are offering a refund or full credit on a later cruise plus $300 on board credit per room.

Looks like we'll be going in May 2021 Cozumel, Belize, and Mahogany Bay. I know there is very little in Cozumel but does anyone know of any nude friendly beaches in Belize or Mahogany Bay?

If you stop in Cozumel I would recommend a shore excursion to Xcaret. Fantastic nature and cultural park with underground river you can swim in.

If you have the time, I recommend Paya Bay Resort in Roatan. They have a cruise day package where they will pick you up at the port, give you lunch and bring you back. They have a C/O beach (everyone was naked the day we were there) and a mandatory nude one. The only con was travel time. Took about 1.5 hrs to get there and 2 hrs to return to port. We ran into road construction, sometimes just sitting there for 20 minutes.

I agree with all said! I did the same cruise and same cruise line two years ago.

The resort was delightful--even had my own air-conditioned cabin (with balcony) included in the package Additionally, the site was stunningly beautiful--probably the best of my 35 or so resorts.

The only down side of the experience was the trip to and from the resort. The "road" was suitable for tank-testing--horrible! Considering the nearly 4 hours of very rough travel, I only had about two hours there before I needed to get back to the ship.

BTW--the driver and resort staff were exceptionally professional and pleasant.

Final thought--Although I did a cruise day package,I was the only--ONLY person from a 3,000 passenger ship to do this. At the resort, I met many nudists there for one or two-week vacations. . . .
