First Look
Carnival Breeze entered service on June 3, 2012 as the third and final Dream-class ship—and quickly became the flagship for Texas cruisers. Her homeport in Galveston makes Caribbean cruising accessible to millions across Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and the central United States.
At 130,000 GT with capacity for 3,690 guests, Breeze incorporates all Dream-class innovations plus refinements from lessons learned on Dream and Magic. She features WaterWorks aqua park, SkyCourse ropes course, the Lanai outdoor promenade, and the full complement of Guy Fieri and Carnival dining concepts.
Built by Fincantieri at Monfalcone, Breeze represents the culmination of the Dream-class design philosophy—open-air spaces, generous public areas, and the signature Fun Ship experience that defines Carnival cruising.
What Makes Carnival Breeze Special
As one of the Dream-class ships sailing from Galveston, Breeze offers convenient access to Caribbean destinations for Texas cruisers. Her 1,004-foot length and 130,000 gross tonnage deliver a balanced experience—large enough for extensive amenities but intimate enough for easy navigation.
The WaterWorks aqua park and Serenity adults-only retreat provide contrasting experiences for different moods. Guy's Burger Joint and BlueIguana Cantina have become Carnival signatures, both complimentary and consistently excellent.
