Children’s Activities

What’s the secret to a great family holiday? Making sure the kids have loads of things to do. That’s why they have three Children’s Centres on board for kids of all ages, from toddlers to teens. Their experienced Youth Activity Team love organising the best range of cool activities. Flexibility is what it is all about. Let the kids come for just a few hours or more. You can relax knowing they’re in safe hands and having the time of their lives.

There’s so much to do in one day that they publish a daily newsletter just to tell you about all the great events that are going on. When you see what’s in store for your children, you’ll enjoy your holiday even more.

*Group child-minding from 10pm to 1am is at a nominal charge.
Infants aged 12 months to 2 years 11 months travel for free with two adults in a cabin. However, children under the age of 3 years cannot enter the Children’s Centre unless they are directly supervised by their own parent or guardian.
Due to limited facilities on board, they cannot guarantee your child’s participation in the Children’s Centres. While they will make every effort to accommodate all interested children, entry into the Children’s Centres will be on a first come first serve basis.
Children must be toilet trained. Children’s Centres vary from ship to ship and hours may differ.
