Our Final Sea Day on the Carnival Jubilee: Shows, Food, and Fun! 🚢✨

Carnival Jubilee Caribbean Cruise: Last Sea Day & Epic Final Shows - Day 7 Vlog

The final day of a cruise is always bittersweet, but on the Carnival Jubilee, we made sure to go out with a bang! For our seventh and final day at sea, we packed in as much fun, food, and entertainment as possible while sailing back toward Galveston. 🌊

If you’ve been following our Western Caribbean journey, you know it has been an incredible experience from start to finish! 🏝️

Brunch, Burgers, and Towel Animals 🍳🐘

We started the morning the right way with the Sea Day Brunch in the Pacific Dining Room. It’s one of our favorite Carnival traditions! After fueling up, we headed back to our stateroom and were greeted by an amazing sight: a full “army” of all the towel animals we had throughout the week! It was a great touch and the perfect way to kick off the afternoon. 🐵🐍

A collection of five creative towel animals, including a mouse, elephant, dinosaur, and rabbit, with black button eyes, are arranged on a white cruise ship bed with a blue and white striped runner. In the foreground is a small postcard that says "OUR SPECIAL GIFT TO YOU!" next to the folding, confirming the gesture of the cruise staff.

For lunch, we had to make one final stop at Guy’s Burger Joint. You really can’t cruise on the Jubilee without getting those famous burgers and fries one last time! 🍔🍟

Entertainment and Epic Final Shows 🎭🎤

The afternoon was all about relaxation and a bit of behind-the-scenes fun. We attended the Meet the Performers Q&A in the Havana Bar, which was a great way to hear from the talented people who make the shows happen. We also squeezed in a quick workout at the Cloud 9 Fitness Center and some quiet time in the Serenity area. 🧘‍♂️💪

As evening fell, we enjoyed our final dinner in the main dining room, featuring the iconic Carnival Melting Chocolate Cake and Baked Alaska. 🍰🍫

To cap off the entire cruise, we headed to Center Stage for the “We Are One” show. The aerial acts, singing, and celebration of world cultures were absolutely spectacular and easily one of the best entertainment highlights of the trip! 🌎✨

Carnival Jubilee Day 6: Ropes Course, Formal Night & White Hot Night Party 🚢 ✨

Day 6 was a full sea day on the Carnival Jubilee, and it was absolutely action-packed! From high-altitude thrills to an elegant formal night, we made the most of every minute. 🌊 ✨

High-Adrenaline Fun: The Ropes Course 🧗‍♂️ ⚓

We headed to the Ultimate Playground on Deck 18 to tackle the ropes course. This complimentary activity features the famous “Walk the Plank,” which takes you right out over the edge of the ship! 😱 It was a bit windy, which added an extra layer of excitement to the experience.

Adrenaline rush! 🌊 Taking a walk on the wild side as I “Walk the Plank” high above the Caribbean Sea on the Carnival Jubilee.

Towel Folding & Morning Fun at Center Stage 🐘 🎩

The Towel Folding Fun at Center Stage was hands-down the best we’ve seen. The Cruise Director had hundreds of us wearing towel “Princess Leia” hats while teaching us how to make dogs and elephants. It was a hilarious and memorable way to spend the morning!

Relaxing at Serenity & The Lone Star Tailgate ☀️ 🏟️

We spent the afternoon soaking up the sun in the Serenity Adult-Only area. While relaxing in the hot tubs, we could hear the excitement from the Lone Star Tailgate on the Lido deck. This was a high-energy sports relay event for families.

Elegant Formal Night & Celestial Strings 🎻 ✨

For our second formal night, the ship was buzzing. After an elegant dinner, we caught Celestial Strings at Center Stage. This show features phenomenal violinists and vocalists in a beautiful, high-energy performance. Pro tip: Arrive early for a good seat!

Love & Marriage and the White Hot Night Party 🕺 🤍

We ended the night with the hilarious Love and Marriage Show followed by the White Hot Night Party on the Lido deck. It was incredible to see the deck packed with guests dressed in white, dancing the night away! 🎤 💃

Carnival Jubilee Day 3: Cozumel Snorkeling at El Cid and ChiBang! Dinner

Carnival Jubilee Caribbean Cruise: Cozumel El Cid & ChiBang! Dinner - Day 3 Vlog

Day 3 of our 7-night Western Caribbean cruise on the Carnival Jubilee brought us to the beautiful island of Cozumel, Mexico! 🚢 We had an incredible day exploring a local resort and enjoying the unique dining experiences back on the ship.

Easy Port Access to El Cid La Ceiba

For our Cozumel excursion, we decided to visit El Cid La Ceiba. One of the best parts about this location is how convenient it is. It was an easy 10-minute walk from the Puerta Maya port where the Carnival Jubilee docks. We booked our pass through Resort for a Day, which made the entire experience seamless.

Our home base for Day 3 in Cozumel! 🌊 El Cid La Ceiba is a beautiful resort just a short 10-minute walk from where the Carnival Jubilee docks. We had such a relaxing time enjoying the pools, the incredible ocean views, and some world-class snorkeling right off the shore. ⚓️🌴

Snorkeling and Relaxation

Our day pass included all of our food and drinks, allowing us to relax without a worry. 🍹🌮 We spent the afternoon enjoying the pools and jumping into the ocean for some fantastic snorkeling in the crystal clear Caribbean water. For lunch, we enjoyed a full spread of delicious fajitas and nachos right by the water before making our way back to the ship.

Evening Fun on the Carnival Jubilee

The excitement continued once we were back on board. We headed over to ChiBang! for a delicious Chinese dinner. During our meal, we were treated to a surprise performance by dancing dragons, which was a huge highlight of the night! 🐉 To wrap up an amazing Day 3, we joined the crowd at Center Stage for the Lone Star Tailgate party. 🤠🎸
