The family of five arrived early Tuesday in the Bahamas as part of a seven-night cruise aboard the Royal Caribbean International ship Harmony of the Seas. They were participating in an “independent shore excursion,” not sponsored or organized by the cruise line.
Royal Caribbean, in confirming the death, said the company was “providing support and assistance” to the victim’s family. In 2019, a young American woman had died after being attacked by three sharks during a family dive in the same area of the Bahamas.
