Cruising out of Port Canaveral on Wonder of the Seas? You’re in for a treat — and we’re here to show you how to do embarkation like a pro. Join Melanie and Kris from Dockside Travel as we kick off our 7-night Caribbean cruise with what might be our best embarkation day ever.
From one of the fastest and easiest boarding experiences we’ve had in over 20 years of cruising to exploring the ship, grabbing a first-day lunch, and checking out our inside cabin, this day was packed from start to finish. We’ll also share our cabin setup tips and honest first impressions of how well the ship handles 7,000+ passengers onboard.
In the evening, we tried the much-hyped Solarium Bistro for dinner — did it live up to expectations? Then came the real highlight: INTENSE at the Aqua Theatre, a show so jaw-dropping it might just be the best we’ve ever seen at sea. And we’re sharing exclusive footage you won’t want to miss. We also caught Voices in the Royal Theater to end the night on a high.
