Discover Paradise

This ship remains classic Carnival — fun-packed from bow to stern — but on the other hand, we’ve never stopped adding fresh new features. So now you can grab something cold, or sweet… or maybe even hot, at JavaBlue Café. Meet the new Cloud 9 Spa, featuring a full menu of, ahhh, spa treatments. We also added a Bonsai Sushi Express, so you can take your fresh sushi, sashimi, rolls and more, to go, someplace fun.

Spend a vacation aboard Carnival Paradise, and you’ll find a little slice of cruise paradise at sea.
