Carnival is on the verge of introducing the first roller coaster at sea.<\/h2>\n

When you are planning a cruise, you usually think of sunny tropical beaches, an Alaskan adventure, or maybe a trip through the Panama Canal. Carnival is adding another “must do” cruise, but this time the big attraction is on the ship. It’s the Carnival Cruise roller coaster, and it’s called “BOLT.” The “Ultimate Sea Coaster” is on the Carnival Cruise Mardi Gras ship, an XL-class that accommodates more than 6,500 guests.<\/p>\n

Just imagine going 40 miles per hour on a twisty turning roller coaster up high above the ocean. Riders will sit on “motorcycle” style vehicles that can accelerate to over 40 miles per hour, however, the driver can control the speed allowing for slower speeds on the turns. The 800-foot track sits at 187 feet above sea level. From that height, riders get a fantastic view of the ship and the sea. The BOLT: Ultimate Sea Coaster is an additional charge for passengers.<\/p>\n

While the Carnival Cruise Mardi Gras ship will not sail till 2020, you can check out all the Carnival sailings to the Caribbean from Sept. 1 to Dec. 31 here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
