Carnival Radiance<\/a> is one of the cruise line\u2019s oldest vessels, having launched in 2000 under its original name, Carnival Victory. Following a $200 million refresh in 2021, it\u2019s become a staple along the Long Beach waterfront.<\/p>\nThe 2,984-guest ship offers a variety of shorter trips, which first-time cruisers may appreciate. Some of its staterooms connect, allowing extended families to vacation together. And most of its outdoor activities \u2014 such as mini-golf, a sports court and a two-level ropes course \u2014 are conveniently clustered together. Nearby are waterslides and pools, one of which sits under a large movie screen.<\/p>\n
Like Carnival Firenze, Radiance also has NASA and Dr. Seuss-themed activities, in addition to an at-sea Build-a-Bear workshop and \u201cZumbini,\u201d a kid-friendly Zumba class.<\/p>\n
Picky eaters need not fret. Radiance has 15 dining options, nine of which are included in the cost of your cruise. A few have celebrity names attached to them: along with Guy Fieri\u2019s Burger Joint and barbecue restaurant, there\u2019s also a chicken counter from basketball star Shaquille O\u2019Neal.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve tested the waters with a short Carnival Radiance cruise and can\u2019t get enough, the ship will also be embarking on a 14-day round-trip voyage in early January to Kahului, Maui; Honolulu, Oahu; Nawiliwili, Kauai; Hilo, Hawaii; and Ensenada, Mexico.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"p]:text-cms-story-body-color-text clearfix”> The sports court on Carnival Radiance.
