The Jimmy Buffett-inspired cruise line that’s synonymous with carefree vibes and island-style living, Margaritaville at Sea is set to make waves with its new offering of three-night weekend voyages for August through December 2024.

Sailing from Florida's Port of Palm Beach to Grand Bahama Island, these extended weekend itineraries will include all-new ‘Saturdays at Sea’ experiences, providing passengers with even more time to soak up the Margaritaville lifestyle’s signature blend of laid-back vibes, exciting entertainment and exceptional hospitality.

Departing on Fridays and returning on Mondays, the three-night itineraries feature a full Saturday at sea, which will give guests the opportunity to experience new dining options, entertainment, and other events and activities. Among the highlights is the "Bottoms Up Party Brunch," a lively affair featuring live music, special menus and refreshing drinks.

Passengers can also look forward to a ‘Tropic Like It’s Hot’ island night, complete with themed attire suggestions, and a new, complimentary dinner menu at the Fins main dining room. Additional Saturday programming is set to include a ‘Sail Yeah’ deck party, pickleball competitions, spa specials, casino promotions and more.

“This new three-night itinerary is our response to guests who’ve requested longer sailings so they have more time to enjoy our irresistible Margaritaville experience,” said Christopher Ivy, President & CEO of Margaritaville at Sea. “And our fun new Saturday at Sea is designed to help them make the most of their extra time.”

Margaritaville at Sea takes the iconic Margaritaville brand's hospitality to the high seas, offering fans a floating tropical vacation that blends its distinctive iconic Buffet-inspired lifestyle with the ability to escape to an island paradise. Across its ship’s 10 passenger decks, guests can enjoy a range of entertainment options, including two ‘Stars on the Water’ shows, called ‘Caribbean Heat’ and ‘Radio Margaritaville: LIVE! At Sea’.

Its vessel—Margaritaville at Sea Paradise—boasts several dining venues serving diverse cuisine, complemented by bars and lounges serving premium cocktails and nonstop entertainment. Onboard amenities include a regulation-sized pickleball court, revamped kids’ clubs, an action-packed casino, swimming pools, hot tubs, a rejuvenating spa and salon, and ample serene spaces to bask in the Caribbean sunshine.

Margaritaville at Sea’s new, three-night ‘Saturdays at Sea’ weekend sailings, which depart roundtrip from the Port of Palm Beach, are already open for reservations.
