Royal Caribbean has revealed its third Icon Class vessel, Legend of the Seas, offering summer adventures in Europe with 7-night Western Mediterranean vacations from Barcelona beginning August 2026.
Setting sail from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, starting November 2026, Legend of the Seas will embark on a 6-night Western Caribbean and 8-night Southern Caribbean vacations, including visits to Royal Caribbean’s award-winning Perfect Day at CocoCay in The Bahamas.
Legend Legend‘s debut lineup will soon open on Royal Caribbean’s website, and Crown & Anchor Society loyalty members will have special access to book ahead of the official opening on Thursday 20 February.
“On the heels of celebrating one year of the record-breaking Icon Class and the memories made by vacationers of all ages on Icon, we are thrilled to announce the name of Royal Caribbean’s third Icon Class vacation,” Royal Caribbean International president and CEO, Michael Bayley, said.
“Legend of the Seas is the next bold step in this exciting era of vacations and the continuation of the Icon Class legacy, and we look forward to bringing the revolutionary lineup of experiences to more families and adventurers across Europe, the Caribbean and beyond.”
In the summer, vacationers can Euro-hop to bucket-list destinations like France, Italy and Spain, filled with historic sites, stunning landscapes and sun-soaked beaches. Legend’s grand Caribbean debut in the winter takes vacationers to the region’s most magnificent destinations in the Western and Southern Caribbean, including visits to the vacation brand’s one-of-a-kind private destination, Perfect Day at CocoCay, on every getaway.
More adventures are in store across picture-perfect spots and next-level activities to match the views, from snorkeling in Oranjestad, Aruba, to lounging on the beaches of Falmouth, Jamaica, and exploring the cultural Willemstad, Curacao.
The vacation currently under construction in Turku, Finland, is set to be the next chapter of the world’s best family vacation.
The third combination of the best of every vacation brings more of the unparalleled experiences introduced by Icon of the Seas and doubled by Star of the Seas, the next in the lineup debuting in Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida, in August 2025.
There’s something for every type of family and vacationer across eight neighborhoods with more than 40 ways to dine and drink, adrenaline-pumping thrills, unrivalled ways to chill, and plenty of ways for vacationers to make memories together and on their own, without compromise.
Adventurers have in store a lineup of Icon Class highlights on Legend from thrills like Crown’s Edge – part skywalk, part ropes course and part thrill ride – to the largest waterpark at sea, Category 6. Sun-seekers can kick back and choose from seven pools for every vibe and mood, including the largest pool at sea, Royal Bay; swim-up bar Swim & Tonic and the adults-only Hideaway, featuring a one-of-a-kind infinity pool suspended above the ocean. Plus, families of all ages can spend time together or chart their own adventures at Surfside, the neighborhood designed for young families, and with a lineup of activities and ways to stay, including the three-story Ultimate Family Townhouse with reimagined spaces for the whole family.
Legend of the Seas will also be the vacation company’s fourth ship powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG) and feature a proven lineup of industry-leading environmental programs. With applications ranging from waste heat recovery systems to shore power connection, it advances the Royal Caribbean Group’s journey toward introducing a net-zero cruise ship by 2035.
