 LABADEE,
HISPANIOLA
(ROYAL CARIBBEAN'S PRIVATE
BEACH)
Located on the mountainous, secluded north coast of Hispaniola, Labadee is a
260-acre wooded peninsula that features five spectacular beaches, nature trails,
open-air dining areas, beachside bars, native entertainment and a marketplace
complete with fine arts and crafts.
Newest additions to the island includes a new pirate-themed water playground
Labadee Luc's Splash Bash. The water playground drips, drizzles and drenches
visitors with ground geysers, toppling water buckets, and water archways.
Would-be pirates can stage mock battles with four water cannons mounted on the
climb-aboard ship and connected wharf, or follow the splash pad's painted-on
treasure map trail.
The Splash Bash also features a special play area for kids ages 3 to 5 with a
central pipe that sends water into three separate play areas with dams, water
wheels and other fun activities designed to keep young children captivated.
Admission to the new water playground is $5 per guest for a two-hour period.
After getting soaked at the Splash Bash, guests can dry off during hot
competition on one of two new volleyball courts or relax in the shade on the
spectator bleachers. Plenty of beach chairs also are available for weary
buccaneers who want to bask in the sun.- RCCLPR
Coming in December, 2009,
December 2009 will herald the opening of new facilities and debut of a
spectacular array of activities and excursion options at the private beach
destination. There will be a new pier at Labadee’s new pier (currently
under construction), which leads guests through a grand entry to the welcome
plaza. Water taxis and five different walking paths, trails and avenues will
take guests from the welcome plaza to many areas throughout the peninsula,
including the new Dragon’s Plaza, Labadee Town Square, and Columbus Family
Beach, all currently under development. Sea-based excursions, including a new
exhilarating fast boat tour, also will depart from the welcome plaza.
At the north end of the peninsula, Dragon’s Plaza will be the
heart of Labadee and feature the Dragon’s Breath Café and Pub, a welcome
center, and central tram station, which will ferry guests to other areas of
the peninsula. Guests booked on the extremely popular Dragon’s Breath Flight
Line, the world’s longest zip-line over water, also will begin their excursion
here.
At the base of the peninsula, Labadee Town Square will offer
guests cultural experiences, shopping, dining and entertainment, featuring the
Haitian Cultural Museum, Café Labadee and Bar, and the Straw and Artisan
Market. From the Town Square, guests will board the new Alpine Coaster, a
thrilling new roller coaster experience on Labadee.
With convenient transportation from the pier via water taxis, the
new Columbus Family Beach will appeal to adults and children of all ages,
