The City of Galveston is located on the upper Texas coast of the Gulf of Mexico and occupies virtually all of a 32 mile long island located approximately two miles off the Texas mainland 50 miles southeast of Houston, Texas. Principal economic support is provided by the Port of Galveston and related interest, the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston and other health institutions, financial institutions, tourism, shrimping, and fishing.
Named in honor of the legendary 1982 MS Tropicale, Carnival Tropicale™ will join the award-winning Excel class in 2028. The original Tropicale introduced a new way of cruising where standout entertainment and onboard experiences mattered just as much as the destinations themselves.
Now that legacy sails forward with a touch of old-Vegas flair and a tropical glow all its own. Think tropical charm with a showstopping wink — immersive spaces and next-generation experiences that make you feel like part of the show. The lineup wouldn't be complete without Excel-class headliners like Sunsation Point, the upper-deck zone made for all-day, all-night fun, and Carnival WaterWorks Ultra, setting the stage for family-friendly thrills and memories worth telling long after the curtain falls.
