Royal Caribbean Cruises

Entertainment

The entertainment offered on-board varies from ship to ship but all have something spectacular to offer. Whatever your activity level, there is plenty to enjoy and all age ranges are catered for.

High octane entertainment includes having a go in the iFly skydiving simulator, learning to surf on the Flowridersurfing simulators or reaching incredible heights by travelling in the North Star: jewel shaped pods that ascend 300 feet above sea level. You can also enjoy bumper cars at sea, roller-skating on-board and trapeze lessons on your ship in the SeaPlex.

For those after more sun than anything else, there are a variety of pools to swim in, Jacuzzis to relax in and even waterparks to splash around in. Oasis class ships even have a Central Park complete with thousands of plants and trees – just in case you ever miss the greenery of land!

With theatre shows like Grease, live action ice skating performances, incredible water shows in the aqua theatre and a variety of casinos, nightclubs and music bars, you’ll certainly never be bored.

Dining Experience

Whatever tickles your taste buds, you’re sure to find something you’d enjoy on Royal Caribbean! Those of you who like a traditional dining experience can take your meals in the main dining room (of which there is often more than one!) or you can hit the buffet if you fancy something a little more informal.

Royal Caribbean have one of the best selections of speciality restaurants at sea and your choice of venues includes:

• Wonderland – an Alice in Wonderland themed restaurant with creative dishes like liquid lobster
• Izumi – a sushi restaurant with plenty of Asian fusion options
• Chops Grille – for quality steaks and cuts of meat
• Johnny Rockets – a family friendly American diner
• Giovanni’s table – for hearty Italian and food that offers a taste of Tuscany
• Jamie’s Italian, the Seafood Shack and many more!

It’s also up to you whether you’d like to eat at the same time every day in a fixed seating time or if you want to try My Time Dining and choose a different seating every day. You can also just sit back and order room service in your cabin if you’re feeling tired!

Dress Code and Extras

Royal Caribbean aren’t as formal as some other cruise lines and whilst some nights may be formal, most evenings you are free to wear more casual clothes to dinner. For example, on a formal night, ladies might wear cocktail dresses and men may choose a shirt and dark jacket, whereas other nights you may just wear casual separates (but not swimwear). You’re also free to wear whatever you like if you just fancy grabbing a snack on deck or eating in the buffet!
