Born to be a legend
Legend of the Seas® is changing the cruise game once again. Purpose-built for greater stability and smoother motion in Royal Caribbean’s revolutionary Icon Class, it’s chockful of bells and whistles. It’s a stellar addition, joining the Icon of the Seas® and Star of the Seas® among their 28-ship lineup.
If you’re the kind of traveller who loves firsts, book a cabin on Legend of the Seas’ legendary inaugural sailing departing Barcelona in August 2026 on an exciting 7-night Western Mediterranean voyage. Bookings now open on royalcaribbean.com.
Other itineraries offer you a chance to Euro-hop enticing destinations like France, Italy, and Spain. Sailing between iconic historic sites, sun-soaked beaches, and breathtaking landscapes aboard a revolutionary brand-new vessel sounds amazing, huh?
The stuff of legends
Aboard Legend of the Seas®, there’s something for every kind of holidaymaker. With eight neighbourhoods and more than 40 ways to dine and drink, enjoy adrenaline-pumping thrills, and relax, this is how you see Europe. And yes, we said 40!
Highlights on board include:
- Crown’s Edge: Part skywalk, part ropes course, part thrill ride, this is the ultimate way to walk the plank (safely, of course!).
- Category 6: The largest waterpark at sea, there’s no shortage of fun, especially with six record-breaking slides.
- Seven pools: Across Legend of the Seas’ seven pools, there is the largest pool at sea, Royal Bay, a swim-up bar beautifully named Swim & Tonic, and the adults-only (hurrah) Hideaway with a one-of-a-kind infinity pool suspended above the ocean.
- Flowrider: You’ll love that epic surf simulator, Flowrider is also on the Legend of the Seas®.
- Surfside: The Surfside neighbourhood is designed for young families with a host of activities and cabins, including the three-story Ultimate Family Townhouse with reimagined spaces for the whole clan.
- AquaTheater: Drama, acrobatics, and daring performers make the shows at AquaTheater edge-of-your-seat entertainment.
- Absolute Zero: An ice arena at sea? You bet! Glide across the ice by day or night, then sit back and enjoy a one-of-a-kind ice show like nothing you’ve seen before.
- Food & beverage outlets: Whether you fancy Italian, Japanese, surf-inspired bites or American classics, there are plenty of dining options aboard the Legend of the Seas®. The high-end supper club has our attention for pairing delicious dishes with sumptuous cocktails. Yum.

Seeing the sights, entertaining the kids, food for every kind of palate, and chill time for the parents (and grandparents) make Europe cruising the ultimate travel no-brainer.
