  • The US$250 million 125-acre Perfect Day at CocoCay, features family attractions, including a 135-foot-high waterslide at Thrill Waterpark, and the exclusive Coco Beach Club

Royal Caribbean International has officially opened Perfect Day at CocoCay, a private island in the Bahamas, which is available to passengers on the company’s ships.

The cruise line company has spent US$250 million transforming the island, which included installing features such as a 135-foot- (40-metre-) high waterslide and a 1,600-foot-long zip-line course. There are also restaurants, overwater cabanas, and an infinity pool.

While most of the 125-acre (50-hectare) island’s features are now in use by passengers, some will not open until the end of the year.
