Celebrating Culture at the Kumamoto Port Yatsushiro Cruise Festival!  Royal Caribbean Group was proud to sponsor the second Port Yatsushiro Cruise Festival at the Yatsushiro Kumamoto Cruise Port (YKCP)—a vibrant cultural market designed to spotlight local artisans and regional specialties for cruise guests. From traditional drum performances and lion dances to tatami craft workshops, origami folding, and kimono displays, the festival offered immersive cultural experiences. Guests also enjoyed local delicacies like fresh citrus juices, cotton candy, locally produced beef, and tea ceremonies. We’re honored to support this initiative once again—celebrating culture, energizing communities, and promoting economic vibrancy in the region. #RoyalCaribbeanGroup

As part of Royal Caribbean’s ROYAL Crew Cares program, crew volunteers from Navigator of the Seas recently partnered with Hutchison Ports and Vincentian Volunteers of Baja California to support a rural school in Ensenada through Hutchison Ports’ Dock School initiative, which helps improve infrastructure at schools in port communities.   During four separate visits, the crew painted classrooms, repaired student chairs, and made several new security improvements. Crew and guests also donated supplies and uniforms, helping equip students with the tools and confidence to start the school year strong.   Special thanks to Captain James Nazar, our crew volunteers, and regional partners for exemplifying Royal Caribbean’s commitment to energizing the communities we visit.

Meet James, Second Officer onboard Star of the Seas who's journey from marine cadet to bridge officer was shaped by the Royal Caribbean UK Cadet program – a fully sponsored three-year cadetship designed to prepare future maritime leaders. Today, he’s helping navigate one of the most advanced ships in our fleet. We sat down with him to hear how a vacation turned into a lifelong calling when he stepped aboard Independence of the Seas at age 14 and instantly knew he wanted to be part of life at sea. James’ story is a powerful reminder that passion, mentorship, and hands-on experience can turn a dream into a career.

Thanks to a collaboration between the Agipa Community Library, Galápagos National Park, and Celebrity Cruises, students from Santa Rosa School enjoyed a hands-on learning experience at the Hernán Carrión Forest Nursery. Guided by park rangers and a naturalist from Celebrity Cruises, the children planted 100 native seedlings—adding to the 80,000+ already planted through the Rewilding Galápagos initiative. Along the way, they learned about the importance of protecting native species and preserving the islands’ unique biodiversity. Their smiles said it all: they weren’t just planting trees—they were helping grow a brighter future for the Galápagos. As part of our SEA the Future mission, we remain committed to sustaining the planet, energizing communities, and accelerating innovation. #RoyalCaribbeanGroup #CelebrityCruises #SEAtheFuture
