The Island Escape

Island Escape side profile

Our first cruise ship, the Island Escape, is a whole resort of attractions afloat.

She joined Island Cruises in the Spring of 2002 from her former owners Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines.

When she came across the Atlantic she brought with her the uniquely friendly atmosphere that makes an Island Cruise such a special experience.
