Overview: Stunning ship built to impress. The decor is all about a tribute to the oceans of the world, with corals, seashells, etc decorating the ship.

Suitable for: Younger couples and singles, families with children and teenagers. People who like lots of entertainment, and dont mind a lot of noise. Children have the Camp Carnival club with an extensive childrens program.

Cuisine.  Two dining rooms, which emphasise the quantity rather than the quality of the fare. The food is acceptable, and there is a decent wine list. There is also the Mediterranean restaurant which serves self service food, and the Mississippi Barbeque for fast foods.

Spa facilities: The Nautica spa is operated by Steiner. It is a good quality spa, with plenty of treatments available.

Entertainment: The Caribbean showlounge is the main venue for shows and cabaret. Most cruises will get a Las Vegas style revue. There are also plenty of other lounges and bars with live music in the evenings.
