RCI Explorer of the Seas * April 25 - 30, 2025

RCI Explorer of the Seas * April 25 - 30, 2025

As we set sail on the Explorer of the Seas, we will see the famous RCI Promenade back in action with more playtime and more time to enjoy the Bliss experience. This will be the second time our spring cruisers will get to experience the Royal Promenade. The Promenade is designed to emulate an upscale European street scene, lined with shops, bars, and a 24-hour cafe (a great venue to snack and people watch). Featuring atmospheric lighting which changes color throughout the day and night, quirky art features and sculptures, the area is also a hive of activity. The Promenade will host a variety of Bliss Cruise Meet & Greets, Bliss Cruise evening themed dance parties, Royal Caribbean Random Acts of Entertainment, and more. It's a great place to gather, hang out and connect with all of your fun-loving friends.

The Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas holds approximately 3,600 passengers. This 5-day clothing optional adventure will be couples only and departs Port of Miami, FL with stops in Falmouth, Jamaica and Labadee, Haiti. The voyage attracts many open-minded groups such as lifestyle couples, nudists, voyeurs and exhibitionists as well as curious individuals looking to experience something different from the conventional cruise vacation.

As an added bonus, Explorer of the Seas will undergo an extensive $75 Million dry dock renovation over 35 days during 2023. Bliss Cruise passengers will ultimately benefit from state-of-the-art additions, top quality services, and excellence in passenger satisfaction by the Royal Caribbean brand.

As we have done with all our cruises, Bliss Cruise adds our naughty touch to enhance your cruising experience with the following:
• Adults 21 or older only which means...NO kids allowed!
• Open decks and pool areas are clothing optional.
• Clothing optional shore excursions.
• Meet & Greets to help you break the ice and meet new people.
• Seminars that educate and allow you to explore new areas of the lifestyle.
• Multiple play areas to meet your level of comfort and interest.
• Evening entertainment and late night dance parties in various venues.
• Themed nights to add a little extra fun to dressing up & heading out for the night.

Reserve your spot now to be part of the BLISS experience. This is not your average vacation!!

Itinerary

*** All itineraries are subject to change without notice.

Falmouth, Jamaica

The historic port of Falmouth is a treasure trove of Jamaica's past. Nestled right between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, Falmouth is the perfect backdrop for discovery in Jamaica during your cruise— but there’s lots to do right there. Explore the town through walking tours or set off for a nearby adventure in nature. For a relaxing ride along the shoreline, hop on horseback in Chukkah Beach. Cruise to Falmouth and head to the Water Square and jam out with the locals to live reggae. Culture cravers can get their fix during high tea at the historical Good Hope Estate overlooking the Queen of Spain Valley. And a trip to Falmouth wouldn’t be complete without chowing down on fiery jerk chicken and rum cake, two local favorites.

Labadee, Haiti

On the north coast of Hispaniola, surrounded by beautiful mountain slopes and exotic foliage, sits Labadee, a private paradise. Reserved exclusively for us, this destination offers pristine beaches, breathtaking scenery and spectacular water activities. Nellie's Beach is simply a slice of paradise.

Cruise Themes

The themes have not been announced yet for this cruise but once they are we will be sure to post them.

Pre-Cruise Details

It is always recommended that you arrive the night before the cruise to ensure that you do not miss the boat. For those of you that wish to follow our recommendation, we will make arrangements at a Miami hotel for a group rate to stay the night before the cruise. We'll be hosting a pre-cruise Meet & Greet Reception to give everyone the opportunity to start getting to know the others that you will be sailing the open waters with.

At this point, details for the hotel, Meet & Greet Reception and shuttle service have not been finalized yet for this cruise.
