Legendary Season Ahead for Carnival Cruise Line

Carnival Cruise Line's Carnival Legend has returned to Australia to ramp up the fun factor for local cruisers, sailing into Sydney today for her third season of cruises from the city.

A favourite Down Under, Carnival Legend is sporting a range of new features including the marine-themed Camp Ocean kids club, which replaces Camp Carnival. Designed for children aged 2-11 years, Camp Ocean features more than 200 educational and engaging activities, as well as three areas for kids of different ages to enjoy plenty of fun at sea.

The ship arrived in Australia early this morning at the end of a 17-night South Pacific cruise from Hawaii, which departed Honolulu on September 23 and visited ports in Tahiti, Fiji and New Caledonia before arriving in Sydney.  She joins sister ship Carnival Spirit, which is homeported in Sydney year-round.

Carnival Legend will remain in local waters until April 1, 2017, sailing on a variety of itineraries ranging from 3-5 night short cruises to longer 7-12 night cruises around the South Pacific. Also on the ship's agenda in January 2017 is a 10-night New Zealand voyage, which includes the ship's maiden call to four New Zealand ports.
