Overview
We broke the mold after we made this one. The final Fantasy class cruise ship ever created, Carnival Paradise is proof that there's plenty of fun to be found long before you reach your dream destination.
While we've never stopped adding the latest and greatest features to the ship, this ship remains classic Carnival - fun-packed from bow to stern. With so much of it indoors, outdoors and everywhere in between, Carnival Paradise features great times in and near the water courtesy of hot tubs, pools and a WaterWorks waterpark featuring a giant spiraling slide and dual racing slides. For those who appreciate a good story, there's Seuss at Sea with an interactive storytime and parade!
On the food front, aboard this ship there's two of our top casual spots: Guy's Burger Joint, featuring the goods from Guy Fieri, and BlueIguana Cantina, with authentic south-of-the-border taco/burrito goodness. Refreshments - and good times - abound with RedFrog Rum Bar and BlueIguana Tequila Bar. And a little closer to home (well, your vacation home), Carnival Paradise now features even more staterooms with a balcony. Feel that breeze!
Spend a vacation aboard Carnival Paradise, and you'll find a little slice of cruise ship paradise at sea.
