What are the pool hours on a cruise ship?

Pools are generally open 8:00am to midnight; hours may vary and are listed in the HUB App. Carnival Cruise Line® is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all of our guests in all aspects of their cruise experience. This includes pool safety, which we have always taken very seriously.
