There's never been a cruise ship like this. Enjoy one-of-a-kind features like an ice-skating rink, the Royal Promenade and a rock-climbing wall. There was only one way to accommodate all of these innovative ideas. We built a bigger cruise ship. The 138,000-ton, 3,114-guest Explorer of the Seas offers more space for every guest - plus enhanced staterooms, expanded dining options and exceptional recreational facilities. This cruise ship is so high-tech, it even features the University of Miami Ocean Lab, a state-of-the-art oceanographic and atmospheric science lab.

Casino:
There's nothing like the excitement of a winning hand at poker or a slot machine paying off. Try your luck in our Las Vegas-style casinos.

Studio B:
Our cruise ships are probably the only places on earth where you can go from skating on ice to warming yourself in the Caribbean sun, then come back later for a cooking demonstration or even a game show. It all happens in this multipurpose studio complex. The professional ice shows in the evenings are a "can't miss."
