On Perfect Day at CocoCay, Royal Caribbean’s private island in the Bahamas, the minimum drinking age is 21 years old. This policy mirrors the rules found on Royal Caribbean ships departing from North America. Even though the legal drinking age in the Bahamas is 18, Royal Caribbean maintains the 21-year-old requirement to ensure consistency for its guests and to uphold U.S.-based safety standards. When you are on the island, your "SeaPass" card—which is linked to your age and identity provided during check-in—is used for all beverage purchases, including those made with a "Deluxe Beverage Package." If a passenger is under 21, the system will automatically block the purchase of alcohol. The only exception to this rule typically occurs on sailings departing from European or Australian ports where the shipboard age is 18, but for the vast majority of guests visiting CocoCay from Florida or other U.S. ports, you must be 21 to enjoy a "Coco Loco" or any other alcoholic beverage on the beach.
