Carnival Legend is set to operate from San Francisco to Alaska, Mexico, Panama Canal and Hawaii in 2025.
Her sailing season will begin and end with Carnival Journeys. The first one will depart from the Port of Tampa on April 24, 2025 on a 14-day Panama Canal sailing with ports of call at Cartagena in Columbia, Cabo San Lucas in Mexico, and Puntarenas in Costa Rica.
Carnival Legend will replace her sister ship, Carnival Miracle, when she arrives in San Francisco on May 8, 2025. She will begin sailing alternating routes to Mexico and Alaska with the first 4-day sailing exploring Baja and Ensenada, Mexico.
Upon returning Carnival Legend will embark on a 10-day cruise to Alaska. The sailing will include ports of call in Juneau, Ketchikan, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord and Prince Rupert, British Columbia.
In September she will sail her second Carnival Journey—a 15-day Hawaiian cruise. The itinerary includes visits to Honolulu, Oahu; Kahului, Maui; Hilo, Hawaii; Nawiwili, Kauai; and Ensenada, Mexico.
“Carnival Miracle has been sailing from San Francisco since 2022, so we wanted to offer our guests a new option for the 2025 season – Carnival Legend is a sister ship to Carnival Miracle. She’s similar in size and layout, but offers some variety in terms of features and amenities,” said Fred Stein, vice president of revenue planning and deployment. “Carnival Legend will be a perfect addition to the port as we continue to expand our West Coast service offerings and strengthen our position as the cruise line embarking more guests than any other operator from California.”
Although Carnival Legend is a little older than her Spirit-class sister, Carnival Miracle, she received a major refurbishment in 2014 and offers many of Carnival Cruise Line’s most popular venues such as Guy’s Burger Joint, BlueIguana Cantina, RedFrog, Alchemy, WaterWorks Aqua Park, Punchliner Comedy Club and so much more.
