Where is the Labadee cruise port?

Labadee is not currently receiving cruise calls (suspended since April 2025, through at least June 2027).

Labadee has no conventional cruise terminal. When it is operating, ships dock alongside Royal Caribbean's own pier on the Labadee peninsula, which is large enough for Oasis- and Icon-class ships. Passengers walk straight off the ship into the fenced resort.

Beaches, restaurants and attractions are within walking distance of the pier, and a free tram links the main areas, including the more distant Columbus Cove. Guests stay inside the resort perimeter and cannot visit Cap-Haitien or other parts of Haiti independently.

About Labadee

Calls suspended: Royal Caribbean has made no Labadee calls since April 2025, and the suspension has been extended through at least June 2027, with no announced date for a return. The details below describe the resort as it operated before the suspension.

Labadee is a private beach destination leased and operated by Royal Caribbean International on a wooded peninsula on Haiti's northern coast, near the village of Labadie and about 10 km by road northwest of Cap-Haitien. Royal Caribbean has operated the site continuously since 1988. Green mountains rise behind its beaches, and the fenced resort is reserved for Royal Caribbean guests. The beaches include lively Adrenaline Beach, family-friendly Columbus Cove, quiet Nellie's Beach and the restricted Barefoot Beach.

Ticketed attractions include the Dragon's Breath Flight Line, promoted as the world's longest over-water zip line, as well as the Dragon's Tail alpine coaster, the Dragon's Splash waterslide and the Arawak Aqua Park. Its Artisan's Market of licensed Haitian vendors is the main point of local cultural contact. No ship has called since April 2025, and calls are suspended through June 2027.

Things to Do in Labadee

Dragon's Breath Flight Line

A 2,600-foot zip line that starts 500 feet up and crosses the bay at up to about 40 mph. It is billed as the world's longest over-water zip line, and the pre-suspension price was approximately USD 89–99 per person. Riders must be at least 48 inches tall and weigh 75–275 lb, and the activity often sells out, so booking in advance is advised.

Labadee beaches

Beaches include Adrenaline Beach, with a floating bar, the calm, lagoon-like Columbus Cove, reached by the free tram, and quiet Nellie's Beach with rentable cabanas. Pre-suspension cabana prices were approximately USD 270–580 per day.

Artisan's Market

Licensed Haitian vendors sell paintings, wood carvings, papier-mache and cut-steel metal art. It is the resort's main point of local cultural contact. Bring USD cash, because SeaPass cards are not accepted, and expect to haggle.
