00:00A mystery has swirled in these dazzling waters for almost 100 years with scientists and conspiracy
00:12theorists alike speculating about what lies beneath the surface. But fear is not an emotion
00:19that travel writers can indulge in. So I'm doing it. I am bravely sailing into the Bermuda
00:25Triangle on the maiden voyage of the world's largest cruise ship, the Star of the Seas.
00:48This towering ship by Royal Caribbean can carry more than 5,000 guests and around
00:552,000 crew members as it sails from Orlando in Florida to Coco Cay in the Bahamas and back again.
01:01This is the sister ship of Royal Caribbean's equally hulking icon of the seas, which was launched in 2024.
01:09The star has 20 decks with dozens of places to grab a bite and almost as many bars with comedy shows,
01:17theatre and music events dotted around the ship.
01:20Hey Doc, what's going on?
01:25Great Scott!
01:29But the showstopper is this water park on the ship's top levels. You can slip down one of the many waterslides or hang 10 on the wave simulator with a panoramic view high above the ocean.
01:42Or you can shoot some hoops on the top deck.
01:46And if you haven't quenched your thirst for waterslides, don't worry, because this is the Star of the Seas destination, Coco Cay.
01:59Ahhhh! I got it!
02:02Well, it's death-defying stuff, but I guess that's the price of an adventure.
