Carnival Cruise Line is set to introduce more stringent regulations regarding bikini attire for passengers disembarking at island ports. This updated policy will affect shore excursions on its various cruise itineraries and represents a significant shift in the cruise line’s approach to swimwear compliance.
The new bikini dress code will be enforced beginning early June 2026 across multiple island port stops, although the specific locations have not been publicly detailed. These changes are expected to come as a surprise to travelers accustomed to the more relaxed swimwear standards traditionally allowed during onshore visits.
