Get ready to embark on a journey like no other as Margaritaville at Sea launches its latest ship, Islander, from Port Tampa Bay this June. This ship promises an unforgettable experience with a dazzling array of entertainment offerings that will keep guests thrilled from sunrise to sunset.

As you set sail on the Islander, prepare to be entertained by a variety of show-stopping performances. The ship features two brand-new scripted live production shows, two exciting theme nights, and a host of poolside activities and music unique to the Islander.

  • Conky Tonkin’ at Sea: This country-themed spectacular invites you to join headliners Bella, Lenny, and the gang for a boot-stomping, feather-shaking trip to Nashville. Expect a musical journey filled with contemporary and classic country favorites that will have you singing along and dancing the night away.
  • Caribbean Heat Remix: An amplified version of a Margaritaville at Sea favorite, this show ignites the audience with a celebration of the colorful, sensual world of the Caribbean through electrifying dance, acrobatics, and the hypnotic beats of Key West and Mexico.

Complementing these live shows are two themed experiences designed to dazzle:

  • Boots and Bubbles (Dress to Impress): Pull on your best boots for an unforgettable evening at sea, blending coastal country vibes with elegance. Enjoy a captain’s margarita toast, high-energy entertainment, themed dining, and cocktail menus, line dancing classes, and family-fun activities.
  • Rock the Trop: This yacht rock extravaganza combines tropical vibes with rock ’n’ roll energy. By day, enjoy family-friendly events like the Parrot Quest scavenger hunt and character meet-and-greets. By night, the deck comes alive with a live DJ, late-night poolside bites, themed dining, and a headliner production of Caribbean Heat Remix.

The Islander’s pool decks offer three distinctive settings:

  • LandShark Pool: Feel the beat with an energetic party vibe.
  • 5 o’Clock Somewhere Pool: Soak up some fun with laid-back music and bites.
  • The Tiki Pool: Drift away in this ultra-relaxed, adults-only retreat.

The Islander boasts 12 passenger decks and can accommodate 2,650 adventure-seeking passengers. Undergoing an extensive transformation, it features 1,105 fully redesigned staterooms with custom styling inspired by the sand, sea, and sky. With options like Breezy Balcony staterooms, Grand Terrace Suites, luxurious Corner Suites, and the exclusive Islander Signature Suites, guests can chase the sunset from spacious balconies with endless gulf breezes.

The ship also features a soaring 14-story atrium with a unique nautical Margaritaville flip-flop and a lively atrium bar with multi-story floating margarita glass chandeliers. Unique innovations like the three-story poolside LandShark Bar at Sea, a Margaritaville-inspired cornhole and mini-golf course, and new family-friendly spaces like the Caribbean Amphibian Play Pad and Slide ensure a journey of discovery.

The Islander offers several familiar favorites from the Palm Beach-based Margaritaville at Sea Paradise, including Paradise Pickleball at Sea, Frank and Lola’s Pizzeria, Margaritaville Coffee Shop, and Cheeseburger in Paradise. These are surrounded by unforgettable new spaces and experiences waiting to be explored.

The inaugural sailing of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander will be on June 14, featuring a 4-night itinerary from Port Tampa Bay to Cozumel, Mexico, and two fun-filled sea days.
