Coming two years after the first Weezer cruise, the new voyage will kick off Feb. 13, 2014 on the 2,052-passenger Carnival Fascination sailing out of Jacksonville, Fla. The Bahamas voyage will include stops in Freeport and Nassau, according to Carnival's website.

Fares for the voyage start at $599 per person. Cabins will be available to attendees of the first Weezer cruise starting on March 20 at 12 noon ET, and any remaining cabins will go on sale to the general public the next day, reports USA Today.

Organizers of the cruise, Rose Tours, confirmed that three other bands will be joining Weezer at "the music festival-at-sea," which also includes a beach concert on the band's own private island.

Rose Tours says participants also will get a chance to see Weezer off-stage during a fan Q&A session; an interactive Weezer game show; and a photo session with the band. There also will be evening theme nights and other activities, according to USA Today.
