It’s time to boost the joys of the weekend even more with the debut of Royal Caribbean’s newest ship Utopia of the Seas^®. The 5,668-guest vessel made her maiden voyage in July 2024 and offers three-night weekend and four-night weekday itineraries from Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida to Royal Caribbean’s private island, Perfect Day at CocoCay, and Nassau, The Bahamas. These sailings may be short, but there’s a ton packed into the days and nights.

Bigger Ways to Splash

With five swimming pools and eight whirlpools on board Utopia of the Seas^®, you can find your style whether you want to relax or seek non-stop excitement.
