Good News for the passengers on the Big Nude Boat 2019! We’ve extended our stay in Cozumel for an extra hour!

Carnival and Bare Necessities has secured Passion Island in Cozumel, Mexico, exclusively for our guests to enjoy nude.

It has always been a passenger favorite for a reason. Enjoy a scenic 45-minute catamaran cruise to the Island. While on Passion Island, sip a cold beer or margarita and relax and enjoy the amenities away from the crowds. Swing yourself to sleep in a hammock, browse the souvenir shops, or take advantage of the wide range of water sports. Free kayaks are included and snorkel gear, water bikes and paddle boards are available for a small fee. An authentic Mexican-style buffet, as well as a complimentary open bar, is also included.
What better way to enjoy your final port of call than relaxing with your fellow passengers on a white sand beach overlooking crystal clear water. Not to mention that this excursion is child-free as well as clothes-free!

The first departure time has SOLD OUT. 

Additional departures are now available:
8:30 am- 2:00 pm
9:00 am – 2:30 pm
9:45 am – 3:15pm

All inclusive Passion Island by Power Catamaran – $69.99 per person – Clothing Optional

This is the last chance for a nude island experience until February 2020! Don’t miss it!!

 

 

Passenger Talent Show

We will, once again, be ending our cruise with a fabulous Passenger Talent Show. We welcome everyone with a special talent to audition. Whether you’re a singer, dancer, magician, acrobat, comedian, etc. all are welcome to audition. If you’d like to be part of this wonderful show, please be sure to bring EVERYTHING you need to perform your act. This includes music (on CD or thumb drive) costumes, instruments, props, etc. The ship’s musicians do not provide musical accompaniment for this show. Because of time restraints, we cannot, unfortunately, include everyone who auditions in the final show. The times for the auditions and rehearsals will be posted in the daily Fun Times which is delivered nightly to your cabins. We’re looking forward to a lot of participation in this year’s show!
