I had no idea Royal Caribbean owned an island.
Cruising in the Caribbean is known for its crystal-blue water and sunshine, and now guests traveling with Royal Caribbean can add new experiences — including a brand new waterpark — on the line's private island to their itinerary. Royal Caribbean just completed a $250-million renovation of the island.
“Perfect Day at CocoCay,” located in the Bahamas, offers guests both adventure and relaxation, and is the first in the brand’s “Perfect Day Island Collection.” On CocoCay, adrenaline-loving travelers will be most excited to hit up Thrill Waterpark, which offers 13 waterslides and the largest wave pool in the Caribbean. The crown jewel of the park is Daredevil’s Peak, the tallest waterslide in North America, which reaches a whopping 135 feet.
Good point:
One thing that sets the water park apart from most others you may have visited is that there are fewer guests than any other public water park you might find. Considering only people on Royal Caribbean ships are allowed to enter, combined with the fact that not all of those on board will visit the water park, and you’re setting yourself up for a fun day with pretty short lines.

If they were willing to invest $250 MILLION in the renovation of the island, I'd love to know how much they actually paid for the island.
Big, big bucks from an insanely-competitive industry.
It's all fun and games until a hurricane wipes it out.
Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
