The 8th annual Legacy Genealogy Cruise, held September 29-October 8, 2011, starts and ends in New Jersey, and visits the following ports: Cape Liberty Cruise Port, New Jersey; Portland, Maine; Bar Harbor, Maine; Saint John, New Brunswick; Halifax, Nova Scotia; and Boston, Massachusetts. We will sail on Royal Caribbean’s Explorer of the Seas ship.

Experience New England and Eastern Canada the way you’ve always dreamed
Lighthouses aren’t the only reason people found their way here. New England and Eastern Canada have an unmistakable charm, rich history and natural beauty all their own. And there’s no better time to visit than the fall – when the foliage is brilliant in every imaginable color, lighthouses dot the coastline, and there’s always an authentic lobster bake going on somewhere.

Genealogy Classes At Sea
On the days we are at sea attend the Legacy Family Tree genealogy classes and learn the real secrets to becoming an expert with Legacy and improving the way you do your research. Go home with the knowledge and tools you need to be more successful than you ever thought possible. You will be learning directly from the experts. Last cruise’s classes were recorded for each of the students so they could replay them at home.

The Ship
There’s never been a cruise ship like Royal Caribbean’s ship Explorer of the Seas. Enjoy one-of-a-kind features like an ice-skating rink, the Royal Promenade and a rock-climbing wall. There was only one way to accommodate all of these innovative ideas. We built a bigger cruise ship. The 138,000-ton, 3,114-guest Explorer of the Seas offers more space for every guest – plus enhanced staterooms, expanded dining options and exceptional recreational facilities. This cruise ship is so high-tech, it even features the University of Miami Ocean Lab, a state-of-the-art oceanographic and atmospheric science lab.
