The cruise line will develop its first Royal Beach Club on the island of Antigua exclusively for Royal Caribbean guests.

The resort-type area will sit along more than half a mile of pristine beachfront and feature the cruise line’s signature service and amenities.

There will be a stunning pool with a swim-up bar, island-style BBQs, live music and plenty of water sports.

The deal also commits Royal Caribbean to bringing Symphony of the Seas, beginning with a call to the island on November 3, 2020. Docking at a new port at the capital of St. John’s, Symphony will be the first Oasis Class ship to visit the island.

“The government of Antigua and Barbuda is truly grateful and appreciative that Royal Caribbean’s first Royal Beach Club will be in Antigua, which confirms confidence in our twin island state,” said Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Minister Charles Fernandez. “We are also excited to share our beautiful island with guests sailing aboard Royal Caribbean ships when they begin calling to the island later this year.”
