Carnival Festivale

Sail on a comfortable catamaran to swim with sea turtles in calm, clear water, then relax at a white-sand beach before heading back to the ship.

A three-hour walk through historic Charlotte Amalie tasting West Indian dishes and local rum, with the story of the island's Danish colonial past along the way.

Ride a guided off-road route through the hills of St. Thomas for big views over the harbor and neighboring islands. About two hours, so it fits an easy port day.

A small-group trip into the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest system to hike, swim in river pools and ride a natural rock waterslide.

Glide along San Juan's coast with an underwater jet scooter, looking for sea turtles on the reef. Videos of your swim are included, and it takes about 90 minutes.

See the colorful streets, forts and city walls of Old San Juan by golf cart, covering more ground than on foot, just steps from the cruise pier.

A small-group trip from Amber Cove or Taino Bay to climb, jump and slide down the natural waterfalls of Damajagua, a favorite with Carnival cruisers.

See the best of Puerto Plata, from its Victorian downtown to the old fortress, then relax at a resort beach before heading back to the ship.

Drive a dune buggy along muddy country trails and through local villages on a three-hour off-road ride from the cruise port.
