Creator's Key Takeaways

We came up these stairs from uh Loco Fresh. Looking I don't know what we're looking for. Just started looking around. And found this whole area we completely missed yesterday.

The whiskey sour at uh Thistle & Thorn, Thorn & Thistle. Thistle & Thorn. I don't know. It just says the pub here. But on the outside it says Thorn & Thistle. I don't know. At the pub is actually really good. 10/10 would recommend.

One of the things I had heard about the Icon and and Star is that even though it it has a ton of people, it never actually feels terribly crowded, and I kind of experienced that so far.

I'm really good at having good intentions and very bad at follow-through, so I think it really was directed at me.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Try the specific specialty drinks at each bar for a unique experience.

YouTube Video Description

Our Perfect Day at CocoCay was CANCELLED thanks to an arctic weather front sweeping through Florida and the Bahamas… so we decided to make the BEST of our first sea day aboard Royal Caribbean’s Star of the Seas! Instead of beach time, we turned the day into an epic pub crawl across the largest cruise ship in the world — trying signature drinks, exploring hidden areas we missed on embarkation day, checking out Crown’s Edge, Chill Island, Surfside, the adults-only Hideaway, and even discovering some surprisingly amazing food along the way. Can you really tackle all 19 bars on Star of the Seas in one day? Spoiler alert: absolutely not 😂 From frozen decks and empty pools to peanut butter whiskey, pineapple jalapeño margaritas, dueling pianos, and one VERY unexpected whiskey sour, this sea day turned into one of the most fun days of the cruise. 🍹 Which drink looked best to you? 🥶 Would you cruise during an arctic cold front? 🚢 What bar would YOU hit first on Star of the Seas?
