Enjoy an Extra Day at Sea Onboard the Explorer of the Seas

Earlier this year, Bliss Cruise announced changes to the dates and ports of call for its April 2025 charter on board the Explorer of the Seas. This charter was initially scheduled to leave from the port of Miami, FL on April 25th, 2025, but due to circumstances beyond our control, we're leaving one day earlier on April 24th, 2025.

The new ports of call stops will be in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic and San Juan, Puerto Rico. But here's the really great news: due to the change, we'll get to enjoy an extra day to play at sea!

As we set sail on the Explorer of the Seas, the famous RCI Promenade will be back in action with more playtime and activities to enjoy the Bliss experience. This will be the second time our spring cruisers will get to experience the Royal Promenade.

The Promenade is designed to emulate an upscale European street scene, lined with shops, bars, and a 24-hour cafe (a great venue to snack and people watch). Featuring atmospheric lighting which changes color throughout the day and night, plus quirky art features and sculptures, the area is also a hive of activity.

The Promenade will host a variety of Bliss Cruise Meet & Greets, Bliss Cruise evening themed dance parties, Royal Caribbean Random Acts of Entertainment, and more. It's a great place to gather, hang out and connect with all of your fun-loving friends.

Explorer of the Seas -  Ports of Call

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

Puerto Plata is located on the northern coast of the Dominican Republic. It's known as the Amber Coast due to the area’s large deposits of amber.

The city is famous for Parque Independencia (also known as Parque Central), a park fringed by royal palms and Victorian architecture. In Puerto Plata, you can relax on the white sand beaches, hop on a cable car for sky-high views, take a tour of the local cacao farms, and buy some of the clearest amber in the world!

San Juan, Puerto Rico

San Juan, Puerto Rico

Picturesque beaches, majestic mountains, historic sites, culinary experiences, and outdoor adventures -- join us to discover the many sides of Puerto Rico.

The 100-mile long island is packed with a diverse array of experiences, including spirited salsa music, serene coral reefs, 16th century UNESCO World Heritage structures, and pastel buildings lining cobblestone streets.
