Theatre

It could be a contemporary musical stage production or a Las Vegas-inspired floorshow. Maybe headline entertainment or a comedy act. Whatever or whomever is on stage, one thing is for sure you'll be amazed. All production shows are produced exclusively for Royal Caribbean and the Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers, with a variety of shows playing during your cruise vacation.

Shows are offered several times each week, so be sure to check your Cruise Compass and Daily Planner for show times.

Sports Deck

As if the adventure of cruising weren't enough, you can pack even more adventure on the sports decks. You are offered exciting, cutting-edge activities that put you right in the action.

Basketball Half Court
The basketball courts are so popular that for the Sovereign-family ships a half-court has been added in where a full court couldn't fit. These courts can also be used for volleyball, and as always, all the equipment is available on all sports decks.

Running Track
If running fast doesn't do it, the view just might take your breath away. You'll find running tracks on every ship in the fleet. The tracks are open to anyone, but proper shoes are recommended.

Rock Climbing Wall

At 200 feet above sea level and towering 30 feet above the deck, the rock-climbing wall offers an incredible view and is one of the most popular onboard activities, for kids and adults. Royal Caribbean cruise ships are the only ones in the world to offer rock-climbing walls.

Whether it's your first time on a rock wall or if you're a seasoned climber, there are challenges for all levels of experience. All equipment, including shoes, helmets and harnesses are provided. All you need to do is bring a pair of socks and, of course, your sense of adventure.

Spa

With so much to do onboard, plus countless adventures on land, remember to take time for yourself. After all, it's your vacation! So why not indulge a little and head to the ShipShape® Day Spa.

Treat yourself to a pedicure or facial, or go for something you've never tried before, like a seaweed wrap or aroma stone therapy massage. Let the trained staff soothe your body, smooth your skin and send your mind to a sensory heaven. You may even surprise yourself. What seems fun and extravagant, is actually a pathway to your own personal well-being.

Schooner Bar

There's nothing quite like relaxing in a nautical-themed bar when you're at sea, especially if you're in the Schooner Bar, a Royal Caribbean signature bar and guest favorite. Pull up a seat at the bar or relax in one of the comfy leather chairs. The décor and teakwood accents create such a warm and inviting atmosphere that you may be content just to stay there all night.

Champagne Bar

Make a toast to vacation in the Champagne Bar, the perfect place to raise a glass in honor of your cruise adventure. Celebrate your first night on board, a new stamp in your passport, or simply the fact that you're at sea.

This quiet and elegant bar offers many different sparkling wines, champagnes, and an assortment of canapés for you to enjoy.

Viking Crown Lounge

No Royal Caribbean cruise is complete without a stop in the signature bar, the Viking CrownSM Lounge. The Viking Crown Lounge is located at the very top of the ship, offering amazing 360-degree views. This glass-enclosed lounge is quite possibly the best place on board to enjoy a cocktail and watch the sunset.

Nightclub

The nightclub may get started late, but once it gets going, guests are kicking up their heels until the early morning. It's a great place to make new friends, enjoy a cocktail or just listen to the latest hits played by the resident DJ. The kids are not forgetten - many ships have a teen disco too.

All nightclubs are open to guests over the age of 18, with the exception of the teen disco, which welcomes those aged 13-17.

Casino

There's nothing like the sound of cards being shuffled, chips being stacked and slot machines paying off. The Casino RoyaleSM is considered to be a little bit of Vegas, a little bit of Monte Carlo and a lot of Royal Caribbean fun. There are games for all levels of players. There are onboard lessons for novice players and tournaments for the more advanced. Casino Royale is open whenever you are sailing, so stop in and try your luck!

Shops

Who knew there was such great shopping in the middle of the ocean?

You can find anything you want or need in the duty-free boutiques: a unique souvenir for that special friend or a piece of fine jewelry that will look perfect on you. And just in case you forgot your toothbrush or need a razor, the boutiques also offer a full line of sundries.

If you're a shopper at heart, you'll find paradise can be found on board, as well as in port. You'll also want to check your Cruise Compass and Daily Planner for activities like the Jewelry or Watch Seminar or Port and Shopping Talk.
