Carnival Cruise Lines Carnival Miracle

Hooray! This year, our Gay Singles Cruise sets sail for the first time from the West Coast! This is a cruise specifically for gay singles (well, OK, others can come, too…). While not an "all-gay" cruise, we’ll be a group of (mostly) single gay guys on a "regular" cruise—having a blast together! You won't want to miss out on the fun, the excitement, and most of all, the camaraderie. Even before you board, you'll become part of our welcoming community of like-minded guys just looking to have a great vacation together.

In addition to all the fantastic activities provided by the cruise line, you can join our various private functions that will facilitate and encourage everyone to meet and get to know each other in fun, safe and creative ways.

So close, yet so deliciously far. Mexico might be right down there, but it exists in another world entirely. Experience a whole enchilada’s worth of rich culture and fun on a cruise to Mexico. If you’re looking for a beautiful cruise destination to call your own, cruise to Cabo San Lucas should be at the top of your list. You’ll return home with spectacular vacation photos that get all the Likes! Cabo San Lucas makes its home on the Baja California peninsula, the second longest in the world, sitting pretty down at the south end. Tucked between golf courses and desert mountains, Cabo San Lucas straddles two oceans — the calm turquoise Sea of Cortez and the crashing blue Pacific.

With 18 pristine miles of coastline connecting your port to colonial San José del Cabo, you get two seaside cities in one on a Cabo San Lucas cruise. But, along with water-based activities like fishing, paddling and swimming, you can also add action — or maximum relaxation — to your itinerary. Cruise to Cabo San Lucas offer a huge variety of things to do, from riding ATVs in the desert to sipping margaritas on the beach. Try one or try it all!

Your Ship - Carnival Cruise Lines Carnival Miracle

We sail on the Carnival Miracle in early October, when Southern California enjoys better weather and fewer crowds than in the summer! The Miracle was completely refurbished just two years ago. Cruise Critic gives her four out of five stars and calls her "one of Carnival Cruise Line’s most comfortable ships", noting her deck plan is "thoughtfully designed" and "never feels cramped".

The passenger-to-space ratio is the best in the entire fleet. Meanwhile, Cruise Line rates the Miracle's interior and balcony cabins 4.5 out of 5.

This updated ship includes all of your favorite Carnival features: water slides, top entertainment, the Alchemy Bar (specialty martinis are their thing) and of course my favorite: Guy's Burger Joint (best burgers on the high seas!).

And if you need a respite from everything, head up to Serenity - the adults-only pool deck (included with your cruise fare) for some peace and quiet and sun and rest and...

Carnival Miracle is a ship you may not believe when you see… but definitely don’t miss seeing this one! Carnival Miracle takes you to another world! Not only does this ship visit stunning destinations, but features incredible onboard spaces inspired by elements of fantasy. Escape from reality as you take in a show at the Phantom Lounge, a drink at Odyssey Bar or a dance at Dr. Frankenstein’s Lab. To lose yourself in a song, find your way to Sam’s Piano Bar.

Hungry? You’ll find great food all over the place, from the casual fare of Horatio’s to the artful eats of the Bacchus and Ariadne dining rooms… not to mention the world-class cuts at Nick & Nora’s Steakhouse. At Alchemy Bar they make drinks into art, while the laid-back RedFrog Pub has 'Caribbean cool' down to a science. And up in SKYBOX Sports Bar, they've combined luxury-box comfort with the very down-to-earth view from the 50-yard line.

Outdoors, there’s fun to be had, whether you’re down for watersliding or up for simply sunning — Carnival’s Twister Waterslide has you covered (in water, that is), and the Serenity Adult-Only Area will get you relaxing, grown-up-style.

No matter your age, lifelong childhood-faves come to life, on-stage, at Hasbro, The Game Show. They’ve also got the interactive CLUE: The Murder Mystery woven dramatically throughout your entire voyage. And in case you forget, don’t forget: the sweetest way to cap off the day is with a treat from Cherry On Top, the onboard candy-and-more store.
