Royal Caribbean’s long-teased beach club experience in The Bahamas is officially ready for its close-up.

The cruise line officially celebrated the debut of Royal Beach Club Paradise Island with a ribbon-cutting ceremony this weekend, just days before the new Nassau destination welcomes its first guests on December 23, 2025. The event brought Royal Caribbean executives together with Bahamian government officials, underscoring the collaboration behind the project and its ties to the local community.

More than 150 government leaders, VIPs and community members attended the festivities and were able to get an early look at what Royal Caribbean is calling a first-of-its-kind destination. Set on one of Paradise Island’s most picturesque stretches of sand, the new venue blends authentic Bahamian culture, cuisine and hospitality with the cruise line’s signature design and service style.

Royal Beach Club Paradise Island is designed as an all-in-one beach day, with different all-inclusive zones catering to different vacation moods. Guests looking to keep the energy high can head to Party Cove, home to The Floating Flamingo, billed as the world’s largest swim-up bar. Those craving something calmer can stretch out at Chill Beach, while families have their own dedicated space at Family Beach, built for easygoing, all-day fun together.

The private, fully orchestrated setting will offer the scope and flexibility to let guests shape their perfect beach day without needing to leave the island or plan multiple excursions. With its official opening just around the corner, Royal Beach Club Paradise Island is poised to become a major new draw for cruise guests visiting Nassau this winter and beyond.
