Top 5 Carnival Cruise Line On-board Activities

Carnival Cruise Lines is one of the biggest names in the industry and offers its passengers a huge selection of enticing on-board activities. To whet your palate for what’s on offer we’ve selected five of our favourite picks!

WaterWorks

Nothing embodies the essence of cruising more than a sun soaked poolside session. Carnival has taken this concept to a whole new level with its ultra-exciting WaterWorks parks found on-board selected ships. With its spiralling twists and turns the Twister Waterslide is the fastest and wettest ride at-sea. Challenge your friends and family to a contest on the parallel racing slides of Speedway Splash, get drenched on DrainPipe and dare to take on the extreme saturation of the PowerDrencher Kids and adults alike are encouraged to throw on their swim suits and join in the fun!

Playlist Productions

Love to dance? Carnival’s toe tapping Playlist Productions nights are guaranteed to get you in the groove. The theatrical musicals take a handful of well-known tunes and transform them into top notch musical productions starring a cast of professional singers and dancers.  Dance the night away to the sizzling tunes of Latin Nights, the dazzling sounds of Diva, the old favourites of Motor City, the iconic songs of The Brits, the stage shaking beats of Epic Rock and the exclusive Studio VIP experience.

Serenity Adult Only Retreat

Whether you’re travelling as a loved up couple or have a brood of little ones on your hands, Carnival’s Serenity Adult Only Retreat is the perfect place to relax and unwind. With its swaying hammocks, fully stocked bars, comfortable sun lounges and refreshing sea breeze you’ll soon be swept away by an inevitable feeling of pure bliss.

Carnival LIVE

Thought at-sea entertainment options were limited? Think again! With specially curated Carnival LIVE cruises you can enjoy supercharged concerts while exploring world class destinations. While docked in port bands board the ship and treat passengers to amplified performances worthy of sold out arenas. And the best thing? You’ll be cruising with a ship full of fellow fans and music lovers. In 2015 Carnival LIVE will feature a star studded line up of acts including Rascal Flatts, Journey, Smokey Robinson and Little Big Town. Book now to secure a ticket!

Seuss at Sea

Magical, whimsical and utterly wonderful, Carnival’s Seuss at Sea programme brings the legendary children’s books to life.  The programme is designed to delight the whole family, from mums and dads to toddlers and teens.  The Seuss experience features an array of special events and activities including an on-board characters parade, arts and crafts sessions, interactive storytelling times, a Seuss themed breakfast and more!
