Cruises Return to Norfolk in 2025

No cruises depart from Norfolk, Virginia, in 2024 but Carnival Cruise Line returns in a big way in 2025. Year-round departures begin in February 2025 and there will be 50 cruises a year out of this southern port.

In 2024 the city will make improvements to the downtown cruise terminal in preparation for big ships arriving in early 2025.

Cruises out of Norfolk go to Bermuda, the Bahamas or the Caribbean. Some of the Bahamas voyages include a stop at Carnival's new private island, Celebration Key.
