Margaritaville at Sea Paradise is a Jimmy Buffett-themed cruise ship sailing two-night Bahamas cruises from the Port of Palm Beach, Florida. She suits adults and families who want a short, relaxed party cruise without taking a full week off. Built in 1991 as Costa Classica and renamed in 2022, she carries 1,308 guests across 10 passenger decks.
Paradise was the first ship of Margaritaville at Sea, the cruise line launched in 2022 under the Margaritaville brand. At 1,308 guests she is small by modern standards, and that is part of the appeal: queues are short, the pool deck is a few steps from most cabins and the crew get to know regular faces quickly.
Each deck carries an island name. Deck 11 (Rum Cay) is the centre of the day, with the pools, sundeck, spa and kids club. The casino, shops and promenade are on deck 9 (Paradise), dining and a lounge are on deck 8, and the nightclub sits at the very top on deck 14 (Eleuthera).
Cabins include interior, ocean view and balcony rooms, with suites on deck 10. The ship sails from Palm Beach to Grand Bahama Island, so the trip can include a full day ashore. See the sailings below for dates.
