Welcome

The age-appropriate activities at Camp Carnival^SM are sure to delight all toddlers ages 2-5. From finger painting to cartoon time, arts and crafts to puppet shows, your little ones are sure to have a blast! We even provide babysitting services in the evenings, so Mom and Dad can get in some "quiet time," too.

Toddlers do not have to be potty-trained in order to be part of Camp Carnival^SM; parents simply need to provide the youth staff with diapers and toiletries for their child.

Children also get their very own menus, featuring all their favorite foods. Hot dogs, chicken nuggets, pizza, macaroni & cheese, and spaghetti & meatballs are all available on a Carnival cruise, so even our pint-size guests can feel pampered on their "Fun Ship" family vacation.

We are always looking for ways to make our guests' cruises more enjoyable, and now we've eliminated the need to bring a stroller by providing stroller rentals fleet-wide, for a nominal fee.

We offer a wide variety of games and activities throughout the cruise.

Sign In/Out Policy Our youngest Camp Carnival^SM cruisers (ages 2-5) must be signed in at all times while attending. Our experienced youth staff will give them top-notch care and supervision. All parents with children 3 years old and under will receive a complementary beeper or phone on the first day of the cruise to be used throughout the voyage. For parents with children 4 and 5 years old, beepers or phones will be provided depending on the ship's availability. This way, parents can be contacted in case a child is seriously unhappy, ill, misbehaving, continuously asking for their parents and, especially, in case of emergencies. Note: Children must be at least two years old to attend Camp Carnival^SM. Children 8 YEARS OLD AND UNDER must be signed into Camp Carnival^SM by a PARENT/LEGAL GUARDIAN who must be over the age of 18. Authorization for another adult over the age of 18 can be granted to pick up the child only, provided this is done each time you sign in your child. The adult responsible will be required to present his/her Sail & Sign® Card each time he/she drops off and picks up the child. For the safety of the children, there are no exceptions to this rule.
