Don’t board your first cruise without taking a look at the most fun options.
If you’re going on your first cruise soon, you might wonder if your time at sea will be boring. Are there fun things to do on a cruise ship?
You’ll be amazed by all the activities, entertainment, and other things to do on a ship. In fact, cruise vacations are filled with exciting activities and fun adventures.
During the day, there are water activities including some of the greatest waterslides in the world. If you want to relax, lay by the pool to soak up some sun, or ease your stress away in the hot tub.

Cruise ships offer wonderful evening entertainment. You can watch movies under the stars, listen to live music at a lounge, attend a musical performance or play, enjoy a comedy club, relax to a classical music performance, or even participate in karaoke or a fun family game show.
Each cruise line has its own brand of entertainment. Some offer Broadway-caliber musicals. We can help you find the ship that offers all the things you want on your vacation.
