It's no secret that Perfect Day at CocoCay is an unforgettable place to go on vacation. This Royal Caribbean® private destination in The Bahamas offers unrivaled beaches where you can kick back and chill, savor delicious food and cocktails served in the most scenic environments and explore limitless ways to test your bravery and max out your thrill meter.

Most of the attractions and eateries you'll find on the island are complimentary — but there are also for-pay ways you can upgrade your time ashore.

Read on to discover the best ways to upgrade your Perfect Day at CocoCay.

1. What's Included At Perfect Day At Cococay?

Before you decide how you want to upgrade your day at this award-winning private destination, you first need to understand what's already included during your time on the island.

From the moment you step foot off your cruise ship, the following items and activities are complimentary while you're on land:

  • Access to Chill Island®, Breezy Bay, South Beach, Cove Beach and Harbor Beach
  • Laid-back vibes at Oasis Lagoon® — the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean
  • Kid-friendly adventure at Splashaway Bay℠ and Captain Jill's Galleon
  • Tasty meals and snacks at Skipper's Grill, Chill Grill and Snack Shack

You can definitely have an unforgettable time on the island with these complimentary amenities — but there are also ways to upgrade your time on land so you have a day that is tailor-made for you and your adventure crew.

Here are the best ways to upgrade your day:

2. Relax At Coco Beach Club

One of the best ways to upgrade your time on the island is by reserving a day pass at Coco Beach Club®. Your day at this family-friendly oasis grants you access to an infinity pool, bar service, lounge chairs, and plenty of pool attendants on hand to help you have an unforgettable day ashore.

You can also indulge in delicious meals at The Restaurant at Coco Beach Club, which are included in your day pass. Savor everything from Mediterranean dishes, such as Greek salads and dips, to fresh seafood, like grilled grouper and lobster. For some serious indulgence, book an Overwater Cabana — the first of its kind in the Caribbean. Your reservation includes access to a private wet bar and your own food and beverage attendant.

3. Escape To An 18+ Oasis

If you're traveling with adults, one of the best ways to upgrade your day ashore is by purchasing a day pass to Hideaway Beach℠. At this adults-only beachfront paradise, you'll find a swim-up bar with a DJ blasting an unbeatable playlist, luxe Hideaway Cabanas or ultra-private cabanas at The Hideout℠. When you're ready for a bite to eat, tuck into savory island-inspired pizzas at Slice of Paradise℠ or indulge in fresh ceviche, coconut shrimp and burgers at Hideaway Hut. If you're craving a grown-up version of the ultimate pool party, you can't go wrong with Hideaway Beach.

4. Indulge At Captain Jack's

You may wonder if it's worth visiting Captain Jack's when you can eat at complimentary restaurants throughout the island — and the answer is yes. This a la carte eatery is where you'll find mouthwatering vacation-worthy treats like tequila chicken wings and crisp steak fries. But that's not all. While the food here is definitely delicious, one of the best part about visiting Captain Jack's is sitting on the hanging rope swings while listening to beachfront jams. You'll find live music here all day long, so if you're someone who believes the sound of an acoustic guitar is the anthem for warm-weather vacations, this is a can't-miss spot.

5. Test Your Bravery At Thrill Waterpark

Relaxation is great, but sometimes, you need to amp things up a little. Thrill Waterpark® more than lives up to its name, and it's home to Daredevil's Peak® — the tallest waterslide in the Caribbean — and 13 other shriek-inducing slides. However, if you're visiting Thrill Waterpark with kids, you'll want to review specific rider requirements for each slide in advance. All slides have a minimum height requirement, so make sure your little ones can ride before you reserve your ticket here.

6. Zip Line Across The Island

Soar above colorful lounge chairs, beach umbrellas and cabanas on a zip line ride of a lifetime. This 1,600-foot-long adventure gives you awesome views of the island as you zoom high above other beachgoers on the ground below. If you plan on riding the zip line, don't forget to wear closed-toe shoes — flip-flops and sandals are not allowed on this ride, and you won't want to miss out if it's one of the top things on your to-do list.

7. Go For A Balloon Ride

Some of the activities on this island are thrilling — and others are downright unforgettable. If you've ever dreamed of soaring through the clouds in a hot air balloon, you'll want to take a ride on the rainbow-colored Up, Up and Away helium balloon. Here, you'll have access to the highest vantage point in The Bahamas — and, from the top of the ride, you'll drink in a panorama view of the entire island from a whopping 450 feet above land.

8. Get Out On The Water

If you're eager to get out on the ocean, you're in luck — you can rent snorkeling gear in Chill Beach, a popular part of the island for beachgoers looking for a relaxing day in the sun. This is an excellent way to see local marine life and learn about the natural wonders in The Bahamas. Additionally, if you'd rather stay above water, you can book kayaking and jet ski excursions to get you out on the waves without going under them.
