Are chairs free at CocoCay?

Absolutely! Beach chairs and umbrellas are complimentary to all of our guests and can be found throughout the island.



Yes, the vast majority of beach chairs and umbrellas at Royal Caribbean’s private island, Perfect Day at CocoCay, are completely free for cruise guests. Upon arrival, you will find thousands of complimentary lounge chairs spread across the major "neighborhoods," including Chill Island, South Beach, and Harbor Beach. These areas also feature free large umbrellas to provide shade. You do not need to reserve these in advance; they are available on a first-come, first-served basis. However, if you are looking for a more exclusive experience, there are "upgraded" seating options available for an extra fee. This includes the Coco Beach Club, which requires a paid day pass for access to premium cushioned loungers and an infinity pool, as well as private cabanas (Beach, Overwater, or Thrill Waterpark versions) that can be rented for the day. For the average traveler, the free chairs are plentiful and high-quality, ensuring you can enjoy a "perfect day" of sun and sand without any mandatory additional spending on basic seating.
