We’re planning a Colossalcon Cruise adventure for Friday January 25 though Monday January 28, 2019 aboard Royal Caribbean’s Enchantment of the Seas. You won’t need a passport if you can bring a government issued ID and birth certificate. We chose this ship out of Port Canaveral (Orlando, FL) as flights into Orlando are relatively cheap, and if you decide to arrive early or stay late, you can take advantage of the attractions in Orlando.
Our first stop on the cruise will be to Nassau, Bahamas. We will have an optional group trip planned for Paradise Island, Atlantis where you can go to the Aquaventure waterpark, enjoy the many pools, eateries, beach, sealife, and/or casino. We picked this itinerary because Aquaventure is one of the top waterparks in the world. They have 2 waterslides that go through a shark tank, a rapid river, and so much more. It really lives up to the hype.
The second stop will be to the private island of Cococay Bahamas, where you can chill on the white sand beach, snorkel, scuba, parasail, hit up more waterslides, and much more.
You will enjoy free dining aboard the ship and more importantly, free drinks (even the alcoholic ones). We will also have some cosplay contests.
This adventure was created to celebrate some of our favorite aspects of Colossalcon while keeping costs to a minimum. We’ll post full details when we’re able to begin taking reservations. It will be a few weeks because we want to set it up so that people can make payments throughout the year and one of our key planners for this adventure will be in Japan during this time. So please be patient with us and we hope to you can join us!
