Welcome to Fibro Cruise 2026!

 

Thank you for your interest in our groupn cruise. We started out as a small group of individuals with Fibromyalsia, and started discussing the challenges we face vacationing with constant pain. We started looking at cruising because you can do as little as you want, or as much as you want depending on the pain level. Royal Caribbean has a wonderful program to help people with disabilities, and special needs, so it was a great way to plan atrip for all of us and our families.

We call it Fibro Cruise, and we get to share stories, help eachother out with suggestions in our group breakout, and even our husbands/wives, can share ideas about Fibromyalsia and how to help their loved ones navigate at home. In 2016 we planned our first cruise with about 25 people, and now it has grown to 80 people!

We plan private group events like, Karaoke, bingo. slot pulls, and group tours at the ports.

We hope that you will be inspired to join us on our next Fibro Cruise! Reserve your spot today!

Miami (Days 1, 8)

South Florida's exciting, international city is much more than the gateway to Latin America. It's one of the world's most popular vacation destinations. With it's world-renowned beaches, unrivaled nightlife, unique culinary experiences and Latin flavor, this is one place you'll want to check out. Before departing from Miami, enjoy a tour that will highlight this exciting city.
Attractions & Activities
Miami is known for its amazing attractions. While you should definitely schedule a day for beach relaxation, you should also be sure to plan ahead to check out the broader tourism scene. Just imagine, in one day you could catch some early morning sun at the beach, then head down the Everglades and visit a real working alligator farm where 2,000 alligators of all sizes live in natural settings at Everglades Alligator Farm. Not into giant native reptiles? The options are endless. Maybe you're thinking something more like a tour of a mansion with more than two thousand years of lifestyle artifacts? Well, you're in luck because we have that too at Vizcaya Museum & Gardens on Biscayne Bay. Vizcaya Museum & Gardens is the estate of James Deering, built in 1916, a sprawling formal garden and a stunning estate that's open to the public, has been the backdrop to many a film and photo shoot and continues to delight with its' timeless beauty. The examples of what you could to fill a day in Miami go on and on. A classic attraction is Zoo Miami. Kids and parents, animal lovers and educators can't resist the charm of a day at the zoo - and with a zoo like this, why would you? Flamingos, komodo dragons, meerkats, monkeys, rhinos of all kinds, lions, tigers and bears - oh my! - are all on exhibit at this world-class zoo. At Zoo Miami you'll take a trip around the world without ever leaving Miami. The zoo is divided into parts of the world: Africa, Asia, Australia and Future Tropical Americas. If you could spend all day at the zoo watching the monkeys jump around there's an attraction just for you: Monkey Jungle "where humans are in cages and monkeys run wild!" Located in South Dade Monkey Jungle is a 30 acre reserve where nearly 400 primates run and rove at their leisure. Monkey Jungle is part of a world-wide effort to save monkeys close to extinction and protect them within comfortable and familiar environments.

CocoCay (Day 2)

Our private island is a Bahamian paradise. Perfect Day at CocoCay® - is packed with first of their kind thrills and one of a kind ways to chill - only on Royal Caribbean. Features include, Thrill Waterpark, Coco Beach Club, Oasis Lagoon, Captain Jack's, Splashaway Bay, and more -- plus nature walks, beaches and plenty of spots to relax and recharge.
Attractions & Activities
BEACH DAY VIBES If you just want to unwind, head to Chill Island on the east side of CocoCay, where you’ll find plenty of ways to relax and recharge. Access to Chill Island is complimentary, as are beach chairs and hammocks, but for an additional cost you can up your relaxation game by reserving your own private cabana, clamshell or daybed. Or head to South Beach — Debuting December 2019 — where you’ll find plenty of beachside activities and water sports, plus lounge chairs for those who want to take a break from all the thrills.

San Juan (Day 4)

One of the largest islands in the Eastern Caribbean, Puerto Rico's landscape encompasses mountains, underground caves, coral reefs, white-sand beaches and an incredibly massive rain forest that supplies fresh water to most of the island. At the same time San Juan, the capital of the commonwealth, is a big city with a bustling business district, glitzy resorts and casinos, as well as one of the most stunning examples of colonial life in the Western world.
Attractions & Activities
When you're in San Juan, don't miss the opportunity to witness the pinnacle of natural beauty by exploring Puerto Rico's El Yunque Rain Forest. It features more than 240 species of trees, hundreds of miniature orchids, and what was once believed to be the Fountain of Youth.

Charlotte Amalie (Day 5)

There are bargains on just about everything in St. Thomas. In addition to excellent duty-free shopping, St. Thomas boasts some of the loveliest beaches in the Caribbean: Magens Bay, Sapphire Beach, and Coki Point.
Attractions & Activities
While the beaches and ocean are beautiful, there is one thing that really sets St. Thomas apart - shopping. Browse through the shop-lined streets of Charlotte Amalie and find out why St. Thomas is called the "duty-free shopping capital of the world." Shop for duty-free trinkets and bargains on everything from liquor to imported china and crystal. Visitors can bring home $1,200 in merchandise without paying duty - twice the limit of most of the Caribbean.
