Carnival Cruise Line Ship - Carnival Spirit
Carnival Spirit is more than a ship, but an unforgettable vacation experience you will be reliving for a long time. Whether you are after something that's action-packed or just want to relax and unwind, this ship has what you are looking for. (Our suggestion: choose both!)
There is heaps of fun to be had, and there's definitely something in it for everyone; little ones, big ones and the whole family. We are talking about a mini-golf course, two-deck fitness center, jogging track, Serenity Adult-Only Retreat, pools, a spa and more. And playing it cool isn't hard at WaterWorks - after all, you are among waterslides like Green Thunder - plus you can always cool down, or warm up, with a dip in our domed swimming pool.
Keep the kids entertained with three age-appropriate youth programs that give them plenty of choice on activities and fun chances to make new friends.
Our recommendation: sail hungry. After all, you will be enjoying meals in three-course style in the Empire Restaurant or just go ahead and build a meal with as many courses as you like at the casual-style, variety-packed Lido Restaurant.
Speaking of casual, the trio of RedFrog Pub, Guy's Burger Joint and BlueIguana Cantina each put their own delicious spins on flavor itself. To get a little fancy, sit down at Nouveau Steakhouse. To get a lot un-fancy - and we mean this in the most delicious way possible - check out late-night soft-serve (till midnight) or pizza (till 4 a.m.)!
Dining Venues on Carnival Spirit
BlueIguana Cantina
Nobody knows Mexican dining like a blue iguana. Well, the blue iguana, at least. That's why it should come as no surprise that the BlueIguana Cantina features freshly made tacos and burritos stuffed specially for your enjoyment. Throw homemade tortillas and salsa into the mix, and you have a casual dining experience that will make you say " mmmm" (which is actually Iguanese for "more, please").
Guy's Burger Joint
Carnival went looking for someone to help them grill up the best burgers at sea, and found just the guy. Teaming up with best-selling author, restaurateur and Food Network personality Guy Fieri to bring all the authentic appeal of a roadside burger shack to Guy's Burger Joint, the cool poolside spot for hot burgers and hand-cut fries. Try a fresh-off-the-grill burger Guyapos;s way, or take it off-road to the toppings bar and truly make it your own.
The Steakhouse
Turn your special vacation in the direction of delicious by booking a table for an unforgettably delectable evening at the onboard Steakhouse. With menus featuring mouth watering premium cuts of beef cooked to your exact specifications, as well as a fantastic selection of seafood, entrres, gourmet appetizers - even a wine list that got the nod from Wine Spectator. (They actually call it the Award of Excellence.) The Steakhouse's atmosphere pairs remarkably well with, and perhaps even enhances, the culinary creations of our gourmet chefs.
Tip: Like any destination restaurant, reservations are highly recommended, and can be made online after booking your cruise. Your meal is at an additional charge and includes an appetizer, salad, entree, side, and dessert.

Camp Ocean
The little ones can enjoy the best parts of summer camp, year-round aboard their Carnival cruise. At Camp Ocean kids will have a blast in supervised, age-based groups and give each a cool marine-life label: Penguins (2 to 5 years), Stingrays (6 to 8 years) and Sharks (9 to 11 years). Together with their group they will enjoy tons of fun-filled, age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, songs, games, toys, dancing, movies and video games. When comes to mealtime, kids eat together and get their own menus with back-on-land favs like mac & cheese, chicken nuggets and more. The whole time, Carnival's experienced counsellors will be there to make sure everyone in these small groups has an amazing time. Plus, when the sun goes down it's time for Night Owls (fees apply to use this service), but kids get to stay up late having fun while their parents also enjoy themselves well into the night.
Suess at Sea:From the whimsical and always wonderful world of Dr. Seuss comes Cats in Hats, Fish Red and Blue, and both kinds of Things - 1 and 2. And they are all coming to a Carnival cruise near you as the world of Dr. Seuss leaps off the page and onto Seuss at Sea.
Dr. Seuss's timeless stories are the kind kids memorize, and this is the kind of cruise you will remember for a lifetime. The whole family will still enjoy all the classic Carnival activities, but the littlest ones, and their families, will also enjoy an all-new, extra-special experience as the fantastical world of Dr. Seuss comes to life around them.
Enjoy a special onboard character parade, interactive story time, arts & crafts activities, character breakfast featuring their favourite Dr. Seuss friends and more. Seuss at Sea truly brings your child's favourite books to life.
