Get ready! 🎉 The SSU Takeover Cruise is back for 2027, and we are headed to CocoCay and Nassau, The Bahamas, aboard Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas. 🚢🌊🏝️
The first two SSU Takeover Cruises went down in history as 2 of the most memorable Savannah State University alumni events of our time. Approximately 350 SSU Tigers sailed with us on each cruise, sharing love, fellowship, family, fun, and bold Tiger Pride. 🧡💙🐅
