Both ships will be exploring some of the world's most stunning locations including the Western Caribbean and the Bahamas.

Ever since the pandemic hit in March 2020 there has been at least one ship present in the bay at any time. 

Many impressive vessels have come and gone but Anthem of the Seas has been there since August 16 and the Jewel has remained there since August 24.

Looking forward to welcoming guests back aboard these great ships, the crew are slowly starting to prepare for their first departure in more than six months.

A spokesperson for Royal Caribbean cruises said: "We are very much looking forward to welcoming guests back onboard our ships once cruising resumes."

Setting sail from Miami, Jewel offers a range of five and six night cruises to the Western Caribbean and Eastern Caribbean from £454. 

Royal Caribbean said: "Jewel of the Seas is the ideal ship for discovering new destinations, from Northern Europe and the Mediterranean to the Caribbean and beyond.

"Guests can make the most of poolside lounging in between visits to sun-drenched ports, and experience world-class dining and entertainment onboard."

At the same time, Anthem of the Seas is also getting ready to set off in its next voyage. 

With stellar locations including an explorer cruise through Europe to the Bahamas, there's something for everyone.

Prices start at £583 for a seven-night cruise in the Bahamas departing from Cape Liberty in New York.

If you sail from New York, expect sun-soaked tropical shores like Bermuda and St Kitts. 

While if you sail from Southampton you can visit the Mediterranean, Iberian isles and the Canaries.

You can even visit the 'Great White North' of Canada and New England.
