Creator's Key Takeaways
Reviews are mixed. Either people love it or they it's the worst place ever.
That was very unpleasant. There were so many people trying to squeeze through there and that was just insane.
That lazy river looks very refreshing.

Welcome to Day 6 aboard Oasis of the Seas as we visit the Cabo Rojo cruise port in the Dominican Republic — a newer port with very mixed reviews. In this video, we share our honest experience exploring Cabo Rojo, including: First impressions getting off the ship The crowded duty-free exit experience The optical illusion walk (🤯 seriously dizzying!) Free activities, games, and rides The lazy river (is it worth the wait?) Baby Beach pricing vs the free public beach How long the walk really is Heat, crowds, and Oasis-class ship capacity Final thoughts: Would we return? This port has some beautiful theming and fun inclusions, but is it big enough for an Oasis-class ship? We break it all down so you can decide if Cabo Rojo is right for your cruise day. 🌴 Cruise Tip: Bring sun protection, water, and patience — it’s hot, busy, and involves a lot of walking if going to the free beach!
