A 66-year-old woman fell overboard from a Taylor Swift-themed Royal Caribbean cruise ship in the Bahamas, officials said.

The U.S. Coast Guard was assisting the Royal Bahamas Defense Force after it was reported that a passenger on Allure of the Seas went overboard around 9:40 p.m. Tuesday.

The ship was about 17 miles from Nassau when the woman fell.

An HC-144 airplane crew and an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew were a part of the search team. As of Wednesday morning, the search for the woman continued, the Coast Guard said.

Royal Caribbean did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
