"Enchantment of the Seas"

The Ship After the ship version of an "extreme makeover" in early 2005, Enchantment of the Seas is fully refurbished and brimming with exciting new features.  Bungee trampolines, suspension bridges and an expanded Pool Deck will please adventurous guests, and the interactive Splash Deck is a great spot for kids to get soaked.  Enjoy Boleros, our new Latin-themed lounge; work up a sweat in the fitness facilities; and then cool down with a cone from Ben & Jerry's.  Enchantment of the Seas is more, well... enchanting, than ever!

Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida You don't have to be a rocket scientist to find Port Canaveral thrilling.  This is the home of the Kennedy Space Center, where you can catch a fascinating glimpse into the history — and future — of the U.S. space program.  Or, take a leisurely stroll along the Cocoa Beach Pier; the shopping is great and the beach views are truly "out of this world."   Oh yeah, and Disney World is just an hour away....

Nassau, Bahamas Explore Nassau, Bahamas - the capital of the Commonwealth - where endless tropical delights welcome you with a unique British colonial charm. In the 17th century, pirates - including the infamous Blackbeard - dominated the territory, before civilization was restored in the 1700s and Nassau began to prosper. Now you can visit a wonderful island with outstanding shops, exciting casinos, unbelievable beaches - and evidence throughout the city of its storied past.

CocoCay, Bahamas Surrounded by the gentle, translucent waters of the Bahamas chain lies the secluded island of CocoCay.   With its white-sand beaches and spectacular surroundings, CocoCay is a wonderland of adventure.  Reserved exclusively for Royal Caribbean guests, this tropical paradise has recently been updated with new aquatic facilities, nature trails and a ton of great places to just sit back, relax and enjoy a tropical drink.
