Overview
If you could design your dream vacation, what would it look like? A little sun, a little sea... but a lot of fun, right? On Carnival Imagination, this is your reality. A ship designed to pay tribute to fantasy and ancient legends, its decor provides a timeless backdrop for modern-day cruise ship delight.
But the legendary fun aboard this ship is more than surface-deep... it's also remarkably up-to-date. Among the vintage Carnival selection of bustling bars, laid-back lounges and cool-to-the-core clubs, you'll find the some of the latest hotspots from across our fleet. Modern open-air legends RedFrog Rum Bar and BlueIguana Tequila Bar, for instance, have come to claim their place in history, as has Alchemy Bar with its borderline-magical cocktails and Guy's Burger Joint with its renowned eats designed by Guy Fieri. And BlueIguana Cantina with tacos and burritos made the classic way, of course: fresh and by hand.
Then, just for the kids, we've got whole bunches of awesome stuff to do, all across the ship. There's age-appropriate chill spaces like Camp Ocean, Circle "C" and Club O2... plus the splashes-definitely-allowed of Carnival WaterWorks. (Actually, kids and adults alike are encouraged to make the most of this waterful thrill space.)
Nothing brings the family together like the time-honored tradition of food and fun, and there's plenty of that to go around on Carnival Imagination. Oh, also: mini-golf. You can never play too many rounds of mini-golf, especially at sea.
