Bahamas Cruises

From the moment you arrive, and throughout your Bahamas cruise, you’re surrounded by white sand beaches, vibrant coral reefs, stunning marine wildlife—such as turtles, dolphins and sea lions—and clear, turquoise waters. Get in some tropical bird watching, as the Bahamas are home to some of the most beautiful and rarest birds in the world. Or explore the island’s stunning lagoons, private beaches, and natural caves formed over hundreds of years—all of which make the Bahamas one of the world’s most breathtaking destinations.

Savor cuisine with a heavy Caribbean influence. Dine on the Gulf Stream's fresh snapper, grouper, and other delights. Try the conch fritters—always on the menu—while sipping on a cool tropical drink. Feast on delicious salads, spiny lobsters, and baked crab. And don’t forget to try the Johnnycakes. A Bahamas cruise isn’t complete without enjoying different types of Caribbean rum, whether sampling on its own, in a piña colada, as a soaked rum cake, or on a distillery tour.

For the first time ever, we’re taking you to one of the Caribbean’s most exclusive islands, Perfect Day at CocoCay. Royal Caribbean’s award-winning private island destination combines the best of beachside bliss and sun-soaked excitement.

This capital city bursts with bright colors, incredible opportunities for swimming and diving, and culinary experiences that include some of the world’s top seafood and rum. Sunny, tropical fun awaits you on any of our Bahamas cruises, whether you’re taking it easy onshore or shopping the day away at Nassau’s famous Straw Market. Colorful, metropolitan, and high-energy, Nassau offers something for the whole family—from observing sharks and swimming with dolphins to plunging down water slides.

Fort Lauderdale has an abundance of everything, from smooth, white-sand beaches to endless shopping. For nature enthusiasts, head to Hugh Taylor Birch State Park for trails and biking blanketed by mangroves, or travel down to the Florida Everglades for an airboat tour, complete with alligator and flamingo sightings. Beat the heat with a trip to the Museum of Science and Discovery in downtown Fort Lauderdale, where kids and adults alike will learn something new.

The Bahamas’ peaceful islands and powdery beaches offer the perfect scenery for relaxing. Take a break under the shade of beautiful palm trees, sipping mimosas. Swim with dolphins and sea lions in Blue Lagoon Island—a private island not far from Nassau. Cruise through Nassau's historic harbor on a thrilling 35-minute boat ride to your own VIP beach on a private island. Pass beautiful Bahamian homes and gardens on your way to the stunning lagoon.

Discover his home where he wrote several of his critically-acclaimed short stories. Amble through beautiful gardens and catch sight of the famous six-toed cats roaming the grounds.
