Rotterdam: 10-Night Cruise from Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) - January 2, 2027

You'll have 8 hours hours to explore Half Moon Cay (Little San Salvador Island), Bahamas, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM - a solid full day ashore. That's enough for 2-3 attractions and a sit-down lunch without rushing. Tackle the most distant spot first, then work your way back toward the port. Bring reef safe sunscreen, a hat, and swimwear you can stay in all day.

The Rotterdam will be offloading over 2,000 passengers into Falmouth, Jamaica. A ship-arranged shore excursion is the smoothest way to bypass terminal congestion - these groups often get priority disembarkation. Walking through Falmouth reveals restored buildings, open squares, and local businesses woven into everyday life.

Your ship arrives in Georgetown, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands at 8:00 AM, one of the most common arrival windows. If you've booked a morning excursion, aim to be among the first off. If your plans are flexible, waiting 30-45 minutes lets the initial wave pass. Seven Mile Beach is famous for its soft white sand and calm turquoise water.

You'll have 9 hours hours to explore Belize City, Belize, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM - a solid full day ashore. That's enough for 2-3 attractions and a sit-down lunch without rushing. Tackle the most distant spot first, then work your way back toward the port. The culture reflects a blend of Caribbean, Central American, and Indigenous influences, creating a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

The Rotterdam will be offloading over 2,000 passengers into Cozumel, Mexico. A ship-arranged shore excursion is the smoothest way to bypass terminal congestion - these groups often get priority disembarkation. The west side of Cozumel offers calm water and excellent visibility, ideal for snorkeling and swimming.

Your ship arrives in Key West, Florida at 8:00 AM, one of the most common arrival windows. If you've booked a morning excursion, aim to be among the first off. If your plans are flexible, waiting 30-45 minutes lets the initial wave pass. Duval Street is the lively heart of Key West, stretching from the Gulf side to the Atlantic.

Your cruise ends in Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida, where the Rotterdam is scheduled to dock at 7:00 AM. With over 2,000 passengers, disembarkation groups are called over a one to two hour window - once your group is called, you'll be off in about 15 minutes. Self-assist lets you walk off first. Book your flight at least five hours after the ship's scheduled arrival. Las Olas Boulevard is the heart of the city for shopping, dining, and people watching.
