The first time I visited Vegas was for my 21st birthday. I was a textbook city girl who just wanted to stay on the Las Vegas Strip, watch an entertaining show and spend an innocent $30 at the crazy casinos.

Fast forward to my last trip to Vegas and I wanted out of the city ASAP. 😂

The difference? This time, I knew the city had more to offer. Such as…

1. Valley Of Fire State Park.

By: Indigo Sahara, M.A. | Published: February 22, 2023 | Updated: January 17, 2024

Wondering what to do in Labadee, Haiti?

From pristine beaches, mountainous blue lagoons, unforgettable excursions and more, you’re sure to love your Royal Caribbean day at Labadee.

What To Do In Labadee Haiti You Can't Miss

Here, you’ll find the 10 best things to do in Labadee, Haiti.

What is Labadee known for?

Labadee is known for its perfect beach days, tasty homemade tortillas and creole foods, and daredevil activities like zip lines and mountain coasters.

Of course, Labadee is also famous because it is one of Royal Caribbean’s private ports.

What To Do In Labadee Haiti

If you’re stopping at this port on your upcoming cruise, you’ll need to know what to do in Labadee, Haiti, ahead of time so that you can maximize your short port day.

Although you could easily enjoy Labadee by simply laying on the beach all day, here are 10 things to do on Labadee, Haiti, to help you plan your perfect one day Labadee itinerary.

1. Lay Out On Labadee Haiti’s Beaches

First, Labadee is home to numerous impeccable beaches, such as Adrenaline Beach, Dragon’s Beach, Nellie’s Beach, Columbus Cove and more. So, if you’re hoping for a beach day on your Royal Caribbean cruise, you’re in luck.

Each beach has unique features. For example, the zip line and mountain coaster, which we’ll discuss later, are located near Adrenaline Beach. Whereas, the beaches on the lagoon side of the Labadee peninsula offer more seclusion.

Regardless of whether you prefer beach days filled with fun adventure or pure relaxation, there is a beach on Labadee that caters to you. You can read about all of the different beaches in my full guide to Labadee Haiti Beach here.

2. Taste Traditional Creole Foods In Labadee

what to do in labadee haiti royal caribbean

In between beach hopping, don’t forget to try the traditional Creole foods that the Labadee restaurants offer.

Haitian jerk chicken, rice, beans and corn on the cob are at all of the buffets. Even if you’re prone to stick with your usual hamburger, the jerk chicken is definitely worth tasting. Trust me.

Is food included in Labadee Haiti?

Yes, food is included in Labadee, Haiti. You can find the complimentary buffet-style meals at Dragon’s Cafe (closest to the ship), Cafe Labadee (near Adrenaline Beach) and Columbus Cove Cafe (near Columbus Cove).

Each of these restaurants serves similar menus, so don’t feel like you’re missing out if you only have time (or stomach space) to visit one.

3. Try A Legendary Labadoozie

Next, wash down your meal with a legendary Labadoozie.

The Labadoozie is an alcoholic beverage made with orange juice, pineapple juice, papaya juice, coconut cream, rum and grenadine. It’s basically a tropical beach day in a cup.

Alternatively, if you don’t drink alcohol or don’t have the alcoholic drink package, the virgin Labadoozie is equally (if not more) delicious. Bonus points if you swim to the floating bar on Adrenaline Beach to drink one.

4. Go On A Haiti Shore Excursion

One of the best things to do in Labadee, Haiti, is to go on a Haitian shore excursion.

Royal Caribbean hosts numerous shore excursions in Labadee, such as the ocean sandbar excursion, Amiga Island excursion, Haitian cultural tour, kayaking and jet skiing.

We had the opportunity to go on the ocean sandbar excursion, where we were boated out to a sandbar in the middle of the Caribbean Sea to swim in Tahitian-colored waist-deep water. As you could imagine, the views were absolutely breathtaking. The photos speak for themselves.

Best Royal Caribbean Excursions In Labadee, Haiti

The best Royal Caribbean excursions in Labadee, Haiti, are the sandbar excursion, Amiga Island excursion and Haitian cultural tour.

Although the jet skiing and other Labadee excursions are fun too, these three excursions actually give you the chance to leave the private port to experience more of Haiti outside of the tourist-oriented peninsula.

Otherwise, outside of the excursions, Royal Caribbean guests are prohibited from leaving the port boundaries.

5. Hike The Labadee Haiti Walking Trails

what to do in labadee haiti

Now, if you’d like to experience the more adventurous side of Haiti, these next few things to do in Labadee are for you.

First, Labadee has 8 walking trails for you to freely enjoy: 3 leisure walking paths, 3 moderate walking paths and 2 strenuous (yet short) hiking paths.

Not only do these trails offer incredible views of the port landscape and ruins, but they also boast fantastic views of the cruise ship if you’re looking for the perfect cruise ship selfie.

You can find a map of Labadee with the trails here.

6. Zip Line Over The Ocean

Moreover, if you’re really looking for an adventure, you can actually zip line over the ocean at Labadee.

Zip line tickets do cost an additional fee unlike the beaches and walking trails; however, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity sparks the interest of many visitors each day, nonetheless.

Or, if zip lining doesn’t suit you, you can watch the other guests brave the zip line from both Adrenaline Beach and Dragon’s Beach.

7. Ride A Tropical Mountain Coaster

Similarly, take advantage of the once-in-a-lifetime chance to ride down a tropical gravity-driven mountain coaster during your day at Labadee.

The mountain coaster, named Dragon’s Tail Coaster, reaches incredible speeds with gravity alone. In fact, there is an unspoken challenge among visitors to ride the entire coaster without using the car’s built-in break. So if you think you have the courage to ride without breaking, this Labadee activity is sure to please.

Note, this activity does cost an additional fee.

8. Slide Down Labadee Haiti’s Waterslide

On the other side of the peninsula, at the lagoon, you can also ride down a waterslide named Dragon’s Splash Water Slide.

Like the zip line and coaster, the water slide does cost an additional fee. However, if you or your kids love waterparks, this may be the perfect thing for you to do in Labadee.

There are day passes and single-ride passes available for purchase.

9. Play On The Arawak Aqua Park

Additionally, adjacent to the waterslide on Columbus Cove, there is a massive aqua park to explore.

After you pay for the aqua park admission, you can bounce, climb, swim and jump your way through the giant inflatable obstacle course.

If you’re wondering what to do in Labadee with kids, this is it.

10. Shop In The Labadee Haiti Artisan Market

what to do in labadee haiti

Lastly, pick up souvenirs and support the local Haitian people at the Labadee Artisan Market. Here, you’ll find Haitian trinkets, paintings and other pieces of artwork to purchase and remember your Royal Caribbean cruise by.

It is worth mentioning, though, that the sellers in the Artisan Market tend to be a little more aggressive sales-wise than we’re accustomed to in the United States. If you’re not interested, politely say, “No thank you,” and keep walking.

Remember, these Haitians are just trying to feed their families. If you were in their financial situations, you would be doing everything in your power to make a sale and feed your kids too. Thus, with this in mind, the sellers really aren’t as aggressive as they may appear.
