About The Cruise
The Carnival Fascination is just that ... fascinating. With all of her new enhancements, you'll never want to leave the ship. Enjoy Carnival WaterWorks, the adult-only Serenity retreat, relax on one of her many private balconies, people-watch in the dazzling 6-story atrium and lobby bar, challenge friends to a game on the 9-hole mini golf course and indulge your tastebuds at the sushi bar. Come aboard the beautiful Carnival Fascination and let her capture your imagination. Book your Bahamas or Western Caribbean cruise today.
Relax and take in the magnificent ocean view in Serenity, our kid-free oasis. Chill with friends in one of Carnival Fascination's two hot tubs, or enjoy your favorite drink as you kick back under the shade of a big umbrella.
Think palm trees, a cool breeze and relaxing with your favorite book in your hand. Now make that a reality and head on over to the resort-style pool. Take a swim or just chill out. That's what we mean by "floating resort."
Festive, fun and just down right fantastic -- Carnival Fascination's Carnival WaterWorks includes a Twister Waterslide and Splash Zone that's perfect for splishin', splashin' and slidin.' "Let's go again!"
Foooooore! Have a swinging good time at the Sun deck's new 9-hole mini-golf course. The greens are meticulously maintained and the view is great. Just remember your follow through and no bogeys allowed.
Eat whatever you like, whenever you like, at the Coconut Grove Bar and Grill, our Lido deck restaurant. Hamburgers, hot dogs, pizza, salads, roast beef, chicken, fish, broccoli, rice, potatoes, ice cream, cake, pie, cookies ... do we need to go on?

About Half Moon Cay
 If ever you’ve dreamed of making the first footprints on the beach of a truly secluded tropical island, here’s your chance. Simply step ashore on Half Moon Cay, Holland Americas own private island, and make your mark. Then swim and snorkel till the beat of a steel-drum band summons you to the beach party and buffet. Calypso, anyone?
Half Moon Cay Activities
- Explore the undersea world without getting wet on board our own glass-bottom boat.
- Join an island guide for an informative and moderately paced 1 1/2 mile walk on a sandy path through this tropical paradise, viewing tropical palms, sea grape trees, curly-tailed lizards and bananaquit birds.
- Enhance your visit to Holland America's private island by arranging one or more "toy" rentals. You can pre-arrange rentals through the Shore Excursion Office on board, or visit the Watersports Hut on the island.

Nearly every country of the world is represented here with countless items at great, duty-free prices.
