When to Book

Booking opened in early July for sailings calling Nassau in December and beyond. Pricing is subject to seasonal shifts—your best bet is to secure your spot 4–6 months ahead. Passes can purchased onboard if still available, but shore-ex desk tends to run low during popular sailing days.

Why This Matters for Orlando Parks Fans

Sure, Orlando has its splashes, but the Royal Beach Club offers a unique shore-side escape exclusive to Royal Caribbean guests. It blends private-venue vibes with Bahamian flair—lightning-fast ferry, upscale amenities, and lively zones—delivering a premium, eco-friendly outreach beyond theme park gates. Plus, it signals the future of cruise-destination partnerships.

Many Royal Caribbean cruises with a Bahamas itinerary that depart from Orlando (Port Canaveral) stop in Nassau.
