The all-new Star of the Seas ups the ante for excitement, relaxation and surprise in the distinguished Icon Class. Discover the adrenaline rush of six record-breaking waterslides and a terrifying challenge that rises majestically above the waves. Dive into seven splash pools offering epic views. Enjoy more than 40 options to indulge in exquisite dining and beverages. Experience entertainment that rocks the boat, amplifying the art in ways never before seen.
Cape Canaveral, on Florida’s Space Coast, blends laid-back beach life with the excitement of space exploration. Just an hour east of Orlando, this barrier island offers wide Atlantic beaches alongside one of the world’s most important spaceports.
The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is the main draw, where you can walk beneath a Saturn V rocket, see real Space Shuttles, explore interactive exhibits, and sometimes meet astronauts. If you time your visit with a rocket launch, you can watch from designated viewing areas and feel the ground shake as the rocket lifts off—an experience many visitors consider the highlight of their trip. Advance ticket reservations are recommended, especially during busy seasons or major missions.
Beyond its space heritage, Cape Canaveral is rich in natural beauty. The coastline invites swimming, surfing, and sunrise walks, while the nearby Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge offers bird-watching, the chance to spot manatees, and kayaking through mangrove-lined waterways. Port Canaveral, one of the world’s busiest cruise ports, adds to the energy of the area with seafood restaurants, waterfront bars, and fishing charters.
Compact and easy to get around by car or bike, Cape Canaveral pairs a relaxed coastal atmosphere with cutting-edge space history. Stay in a beachside hotel or vacation rental, savor fresh local seafood, and split your days between learning about humanity’s journey into space and unwinding by the ocean. It’s a distinctive mix of science, nature, and classic Florida coastal charm.

Departure: 16:00
Labadee (French: Labadie) is a port situated on the northern shoreline of Haiti, within the district of Cap-Haïtien in the Nord department. This private resort is leased to Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., exclusively for the passengers of its three cruise lines: Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises, and Azamara Club Cruises, until 2050.
Since 1986, Royal Caribbean has been the largest contributor to Haiti's tourist revenue, employing 300 locals, allowing another 200 to sell their goods on the property for a fee, and paying the Haitian government US $12 per tourist. The resort is entirely geared towards tourists and is protected by a private security force. The area is fenced off from the surrounding region, and passengers are not permitted to leave the property. Food for tourists is supplied from the cruise ships. A regulated group of Haitian merchants are granted exclusive rights to sell their goods and set up their businesses in the resort. Despite sometimes being advertised as an island, it is actually a peninsula connected to the island of Hispaniola. The cruise ship docks at the Labadee pier, which can accommodate the Oasis class ships and was completed in late 2009. The nearest commercial airport to Labadee is Cap-Haïtien International Airport.
The attractions include a Haitian flea market, beaches, watersports, a water-based playground, an alpine coaster, and the largest zip-line over water.
