Onboard Adventure

What is unique about this ship is the variety of activities. Whether you're an adrenaline junkie or a laid-back cruiser, Adventure of the Seas caters to every taste.

For the Kids

Families will appreciate both the onboard water park and the Adventure Ocean Kids' Program, which offers supervised activities for kids of all ages. From science experiments to arts and crafts, children can enjoy a variety of engaging programs while parents relax. There are also family-friendly shows and movies under the stars that everyone can enjoy.

Calling All Adrenaline Junkies

The Perfect Storm water slides, rock-climbing walls and Flowrider surf simulator are for you.

For the Adults

The adults-only Solarium on Deck 11 features a small pool, two jacuzzies, a sun deck and a lively bar. At night, you can choose from live music, theater, casino, karaoke or one of several themed bars. (Did someone say Champagne Bar?!) Even on an 8-day trip, you could struggle to fit it all in!

Need to know

For a smoother experience, complete the online check-in before arriving. Have your e-docs, passport and other necessary documents ready. The boarding process is efficient, but arriving early or late can help you avoid crowds. Plus, arriving a bit earlier gives you more time to explore the ship. Balcony cabins and suites come with additional perks like concierge service and priority boarding. On evenings, the ship has a smart casual dress code, with at least one formal night per week. This ship has a deck plan that offers both family fun and adult-only areas. Attention, anxious travelers (like me!), attend the mandatory safety drill to understand all the emergency procedures. Bon voyage!
