Tampa's maritime landscape is set to flourish with the arrival of two of RCI-Royal Caribbean's renowned vessels, Rhapsody of the Seas and Grandeur of the Seas, which will call it home for the winter season of 2025-2026.

Departing from Port Tampa Bay (Florida USA), these smaller/older RCI ships will embark on captivating journeys, offering 6 to 8-night cruises until 2026.

Throughout the winter season, Rhapsody OTS will transport travelers from Tampa to Belize City, Costa Maya, Cozumel, George Town Harbour, and Isla Roatan, as outlined in an official statement.

Meanwhile, Grandeur OTS will enchant vacationers with 7-night roundtrips to the Western Caribbean and the Bahamas.

Although considered the oldest and smallest ships in RCI's fleet (Vision Class vessels), both continue to provide a cozy and enjoyable experience for approximately 2000 to 2400 passengers.
