YES, I went with 6 grandkids and their parents, sent several hours on the beach with them, there is a swim up bar, chairs in the sand, a little shade made by trees (palm) nothing costs extra. The water park is what costs extra, but that is only about 1/3 of the Island.

The test cruises must be done according to strict CDC guide lines, the CDC has not published guide lines nor will it tell the cruise companies what they want them to do. Royal has asked to the CDC to send the requirements, but as of yet all they have heard is crickets!!!! The CDC does not want cruising to start yet so this is a way of stopping it with out saying so.

It's my option that you will not have time to do what you are thinking. Pick one location to go to, see what you wanted to see there and go back another day. If you are a newbie to travel in Europe, take a tour from the ship ether a ship excursion or someone who meets you on the dock. Trying to learn how to use the trains buses etc takes a little time. Even Barcelona, where the port is on the main drag, just to see a little will take hours.

I read they will make you stand on the sidewalk outside, ???

The web site still says show up two hours before your Arrival time? So an 11:00 is really a 9:00 am?
