Miami Beach is everything you've heard about, but you have to see it for yourself. Take an Art Deco tour of Miami Beach to fully appreciate the area's signature architecture. The South Beach Art Deco District is a whimsical collection of more than 800 architecturally protected buildings in Miami Beach from the 1930s and 1940s – a definite must-see. Stay in one of its boutique or throwback hotels – you'll also find some of Miami Beach's finest dining, nightlife and spas here. North Beach's Ocean Terrace is fast becoming a smaller version of South Beach, with inviting oceanfront hotels and cafés. Regardless, be sure to go for a beachside stroll or to Haulover Park for fishing, bike rides, tennis or golf. And, of course, Miami Beach’s nightlife always concludes an unforgettable vacation day.

CocoCay or Little Stirrup Cay, Bahamas, is one of the Berry Islands, a collection of cays and small islands, and is located approximately 88 kilometres north of Nassau. It is used exclusively for tourism by Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. Little Stirrup Cay is adjacent to Great Stirrup Cay, Norwegian Cruises' private island since 1977.
In 2019, the island underwent extensive renovations by Royal Caribbean at a cost of $250 million USD. A pier was built on the north side of the island, allowing cruise ships to dock directly instead of using tenders. The east end is the hub of recreational activities with beaches fronting a coral basin where manatee, rays, and numerous fish can be observed. Nature trails span the entire length and breadth of the island. The renovation also included a water park, with North America’s largest water slide, Daredevil’s Peak.

Labadee (French: Labadie) is a port situated on the northern coast of Haiti within the arrondissement of Cap-Haïtien in the Nord department. It's a private resort leased to Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., for the exclusive use of passengers of its three cruise lines: Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises, and Azamara Club Cruises, until 2050.
Royal Caribbean has been the biggest contributor to Haiti's tourist revenue since 1986, employing 300 locals, allowing another 200 to sell their goods on the premises for a fee and paying the Haitian government US $ 12 per tourist. The resort is entirely tourist-focused, and is guarded by a private security force. The site is fenced off from the surrounding area, and passengers are not permitted to leave the property. Food available to tourists is brought from the cruise ships. A controlled group of Haitian merchants are given exclusive rights to sell their merchandise and establish their businesses in the resort. Although sometimes described as an island in advertisements, it is actually a peninsula contiguous with the island of Hispaniola. The cruise ship docks at the pier at Labadee capable of servicing the Oasis class ships, which was completed in late 2009. The commercial airport that is closest to Labadee is Cap-Haïtien International Airport.
Attractions include a Haitian flea market, beaches, watersports, a water-based playground, an alpine coaster, and the largest zip-line over water.
