kimnicki Posted May 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Does anyone know how far off the coast Carnival sails from Jax to the Bahamas? We sail Saturday on the Fascination, and I'm looking for the weather and wave heights. I'm having a heck of a time trying to google it! Thanks!

Rottweiler Puppy Posted May 8, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Does anyone know how far off the coast Carnival sails from Jax to the Bahamas?

Kim I think it might depend on where the Gulf Stream is running. Running against it can be expensive in the long run, especially when you get further south where it runs around 5mph If you have a northerly wind blowing against it, its going to be a bumpy ride.
