Explorer of the Seas
Marginally larger than her sister ships and thus the largest passenger liner ever built until the QM2 and the new Freedom class Royal Caribbean ships, this 137,308 gt giant is truly a floating city. Rock climbing, ice skating, minigolf and inline skating; all this - and much more - is featured aboard this spectacular megaliner. Explorer of the Seas now sails to the Eastern and Western Caribbean from Miami, year-round.

Excerpts from RCI's Website
about the Explorer of the
Seas
There's never been a ship like this. Enjoy never-seen-before cruise features like an ice-skating rink, a rock-climbing wall, a street fair – and more. There was only one way to accommodate all of these innovative ideas. We built a bigger ship. The 142,000-ton, 3,114-guest Explorer of the Seas boasts the highest space-per-guest ratio in the cruise market – and includes enhanced staterooms, expanded dining options and exceptional recreational facilities. Explorer of the Seas sails to the Eastern and Western Caribbean round trip from Miami.
