Carnival Legend Emerges from Dry Dock Showcasing New “From Sea to Shining Sea” Bow Crest
Carnival Cruise Line is reinforcing its position as America’s Cruise Line with a new look across its fleet. Today, Carnival Legend returned to service after a 16-day dry dock in Freeport, debuting the cruise line’s new “From Sea to Shining Sea” bow crest ahead of Memorial Day weekend.
Inspired by “America the Beautiful,” the new bow crest celebrates the landscapes and oceans Carnival shares with guests nationwide.
The design will roll out across Carnival’s U.S. ships during dry docks and new builds, except for Carnival Jubilee and Carnival Tropicale, coming in 2028, which display the Texas star on their bows. Carnival Magic will be next to receive the new crest, returning to PortMiami from dry dock on May 26.
“With the debut of this new crest, we’re reinforcing what guests have long known: Carnival is proud to be America’s Cruise Line,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. “We sail coast to coast and connect with millions of guests every year, and this crest reflects the reach of our brand across the U.S. – from the communities we visit to the memories we help create at sea.”
To mark the occasion, Carnival invited veterans from the Miami Veteran Affairs Healthcare System to view the new crest and receive Carnival’s America250 challenge coins in honor of their service. Carnival hosts more active-duty military and veterans than any other cruise line, honoring them at military appreciation gatherings on every North American sailing.
The crest’s debut comes as Carnival prepares to celebrate America250, the nation’s 250th anniversary. From June 4 to July 4, guests across the fleet will enjoy patriotic events, including trivia, crafts and ship meet-ups timed for July 4 fireworks on both coasts.
