Royal Caribbean
Explorer of the Seas, the second Voyager-class ship, entered service in October 2000 and is known for hosting a working ocean and atmospheric lab run with the University of Miami until 2007. In 2015 her inline skating track was replaced with a FlowRider surf simulator. Guests also enjoy Voyager-class staples such as the Royal Promenade, an ice-skating rink and a rock-climbing wall.
