About Icon of the Seas

Icon of the Seas is Royal Caribbean's groundbreaking Icon-class ship that debuted in January 2024, claiming the title of world's largest cruise ship at approximately 250,800 gross tons. This revolutionary vessel represents the future of cruising with eight distinct neighborhoods and more ocean views than any ship before it.

The ship introduces several industry firsts, including Category 6—the largest waterpark at sea featuring six record-breaking waterslides. The Thrill Island neighborhood offers the Crown's Edge, a dramatic walkway extending 154 feet above the ocean. Family-focused innovation shines with the Ultimate Family Townhouse, a three-story suite that sleeps up to 8 guests.

Icon of the Seas is designed for multigenerational families and those seeking cutting-edge cruise experiences. Homeported in Miami, the ship offers Caribbean itineraries including stops at Royal Caribbean's Perfect Day at CocoCay private island.
