Public Areas

The ship has 12 passenger decks. Facilities include the three-storey theatre, two-storey main dining room, a conference centre, art gallery, library, billiard club and card club.

Sporting options include a rock-climbing wall, basketball, volleyball, football, table tennis and golf (extra charge).

The ShipShape fitness centre has fitness equipment, saunas, whirlpools, and daily classes including yoga and Pilates.

Deck 12, the main sun deck, can be quite crowded, and there is often a scramble to nab on of the 570 sun lounges. There is also a jogging track, bar and great views over the sea on this deck. There is a small pool on Deck 11, with two whirlpools, a bar and a bandstand.

Dedicated kids’ clubs run daily.

One of the ship’s endearing aspects is the huge amount of glass throughout, which lets in lots of light, enables passengers to get good views of the surroundings and giving a sense of space.
