Carnival Cruise Line's Carnival Radiance has resumed operations from Long Beach following a dry dock that included enhancements to public areas and technical updates. The 2,984-passenger vessel received a full revitalization of its youth areas and sports facilities, extending to the ropes course, mini golf course and basketball court. The ship's Carnival Adventures store, gift shops and casino also underwent improvements.

The vessel maintains popular amenities such as the RedFrog Pub and BlueIguana Cantina, along with newer additions like Guy's Pig & Anchor Bar-B-Que Smokehouse and Shaq's Big Chicken.

Carnival Radiance offers year-round departures from the Port of Long Beach, featuring three- to six-day cruises to the Mexican Riviera and Baja Mexico. Additionally, the ship is scheduled on six Carnival Journey sailings from Long Beach to Hawaii for 2025, consisting of 14-day sailings with stops in Maui, Honolulu, Kauai and Hilo.
