Sydney Harbour schedule
Cruises from Sydney in May 2027
We have 9 sailings from Sydney in May 2027, on two ships. Carnival Adventure and Carnival Splendor all sail from the port this month.
You can go for as few as 2 nights or as many as 10. They head to the South Pacific, sea-day getaways, Queensland and the Great Barrier Reef, and New Zealand.
The lowest starting fare we recorded for May 2027 is $278 per person as of November 14, 2026, on the 2-night Carnival Adventure sailing of Sat, May 8, 2027. We build this list from the sailings on sale through Cruisebound, check each one against the Port Authority of NSW's cruise schedule, and take the ports from that sailing's own page. Sailings whose ports we couldn't confirm are left out.
