Long Beach is fun, but it isn't known as a hotspot of Italian culture, yet! In spring 2024, Carnival Firenze will debut, setting sail from this homeport towards south-of-the-border fun along Mexico's Pacific coast! So, Long Beach, you're wondering what to expect from Fun Italian Style. Grab your movie star sunglasses and throw on a scarf just for style, as you make your entrance at Piazza Duomo, named for Florence's iconic domed cathedral.

To get a taste for onboard flavor and flair, check out spots like the elegant three-course Palazzo and Medici Restaurant, Italian street food spot La Strada Grill, and even sources of fusion-y goodness like the Mexican-Italian Tomodoro and Guy's Burger Joint, now featuring classics and burgers with Italian twists. For refreshment served up in a glass, look to cocktail bar Amari Frizzante with its three specialties (bubbly drinks, snacks and coffee!), frozen drinks with a bit of attitude at Rococo plus fine Italian wines at Carnevale Bar & Lounge.

Spots for entertainment include the classic-theater vibe of Teatro Rosso featuring Playlist Productions shows, and Tuscan Lounge paying tribute to Florence's iconic home region. Let's not forget Terrazza staterooms, we could never! which give you a stylish, comfy place to unwind from all the fun near a private deck featuring exclusive amenities like all-day lounging with great drinks, entertainment, whirlpools and more.

While we're excited about the Italian side of this ship, it's not the whole story. Carnival has some true fan-favorites we know folks will be asking for. That's why Carnival Firenze also includes familiar flavors, starting with special dining spots like Bonsai Teppanyaki and Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse. Places to celebrate absolutely anything (or just nothing!) include Piano Bar 88 and Serenity Bar, while you can seriously kick back at Cloud 9 Spa and Serenity Adult-Only Retreat.

Kids are going to love Camp Ocean, Circle C and Club O2 each one is perfectly designed for a different age group. And if active/splashy fun is your thing, that's honestly a great thing and we can tell you're going to be spending time at WaterWorks and SportSquare, home to a ropes course, jogging track, mini golf course and outdoor fitness center. It won't be long, Long Beach! Carnival Firenze sets sail from your sweet shores next spring. Andiamo!

Pixles

Since photos play a significant role in capturing the memories of your cruise, you can depend on Carnival's skilled photographers to highlight your fun side, taking into account lighting, background, shutter speed, and aperture for every shot. Our photo-pros are scattered throughout the ship: capturing moments around the dining room table, as you disembark at your destination, and many times in between. Additionally, creative and enjoyable backdrops are strategically placed around the ship, inviting you to casually stop by and strike a quick pose! Let the photo memories begin!

Jogging Track

Jogging Track

Jogging might not be the first activity that comes to mind at sea, but it certainly should be considered. You don't have to walk on water; you just have to step onto a Carnival cruise. After all, if you're looking for a scenic view and a refreshing breeze while jogging, the upper deck of a Carnival cruise provides both in abundance. Jogging tracks, padded for long-distance comfort, are available on nearly all Carnival ships. It's the perfect way to stay active with a breath-taking backdrop!
