1st Time Cruiser Tips : Carnival Fascination

[cjs3379]

We are taking our first cruise in Feb. We are going to the Bahamas (freeport/Nassau). It's Myself,a friend and 4 tweens:eek:. Any 1st time cruise tips for this ship and/or ports would be greatly appreciated. As would any info on good excursions that don't need to be booked through the cruise line. Also how is the weather in late Feb early Mar? Able to swim/snorkel comfortably?

Suggest you visit the Carnival forum, your roll call thread, and also the ports of call section, where you will find lots of helpful information.

Definitely join the Roll Call. There you can meet others traveling with you.

 

To join, go to the boards menu and scroll down to Roll Calls. Click on your cruise line. Then click on your ship. Finally, click on the thread for your sailing.

A guidebook will point you in the "do it yourself" direction...everything you need to know about your ports!
