Destinations with Royal Caribbean

The Caribbean: Your Vacation Awaits

The Caribbean is where Royal Caribbean truly shines. With more ships homeported here than anywhere else, you’ll find itineraries ranging from quick weekend getaways to full island-hopping adventures. Whether you’re chasing the vibrant energy of Cozumel, the laid-back vibes of St. Thomas, or the turquoise waters of the Bahamas, every sailing is infused with sun, music, and flavor. Add in Royal Caribbean’s exclusive Perfect Day at CocoCay, and the Caribbean becomes more than a destination; it’s a playground of beaches, culture, and memory-making moments for families, couples, and friends alike.

Perfect Day at Coco Cay

Royal Caribbean has redefined what a private island stop can be with Perfect Day at CocoCay, their exclusive destination in The Bahamas that blends thrill and chill with waterparks, beaches, overwater cabanas, and quiet coves. It’s become a highlight of many Caribbean itineraries, and the line is expanding this concept with new Perfect Day destinations set to debut in the next two years.

Royal Caribbean continues to elevate the vacation experience with its evolving lineup of exclusive private destinations. The Perfect Day brand is already betting on the future, with Perfect Day Mexico set to debut in fall 2027 on Mexico’s Caribbean coast. This 200-acre mega-resort promises thrills (Jaguar’s Peak waterslide tower, the longest lazy river in the world) and cultural vibrancy (Fiesta Plaza with mariachi, dining, and cocktails). Alongside that, guests can look forward to Royal Beach Club destinations: Paradise Island in the Bahamas (opening late 2025), Cozumel (2026), and even Lelepa in Vanuatu, marking the first Royal Caribbean private destination in the Southern Hemisphere.

Alaska, Europe, and the rest of the world

Royal Caribbean International sails far beyond the Caribbean, with a strong presence in Alaska, Europe, and destinations around the world. In Alaska, their ships bring travelers up close to glaciers, wildlife, and rugged coastal towns, blending adventure with comfort onboard. In Europe, itineraries span from the sun-soaked Mediterranean to the history-rich cities along the Baltic and British Isles. And across the globe, from Australia and New Zealand to Asia and South America, Royal Caribbean continues to expand its reach, offering itineraries that connect travelers with iconic landmarks and once-in-a-lifetime experiences, all anchored by the energy and innovation their ships are known for.
