Kids & Teens
Adventure Ocean
When the kids are happy, parents are happy. And our award-winning Adventure Ocean Youth Program is designed with that in mind. Tiny travelers ages 3-5 will have an education blast in the Aquanauts group. The Explorers program keeps 6-8 year olds entertained with activities like themed parties and more. And learning is a thrillfest for 9-11 year olds in the Voyagers group.

Bubbling science experiments. Dino-sized secrets just waiting to be uncovered. Adventurers ages 3 - 5 are engaged and entertained any time of day in the Adventure Ocean Aquanauts group.
Explorers
For Explorers ages 6 – 8 at the Adventure Ocean youth program, there's no end to activities that engage young imaginations. Like science experiments, including Space Mud, Fossil Fever and Meteorology Madness. Arts and crafts with Adventure Art. Performances where the kids are the stars. Even dance parties with ice cream.
Voyagers
The Voyagers group at Adventure Ocean offers endless ways for kids age 9 to 11 to play. They can stoke their competitive spirit at sports tournaments and video game showdowns. Show off their skills in talent shows. Join in a scavenger hunt around the ship, and much more.
Teen Lounge
The Royal Caribbean teen program isn't some structured set of classes or rules. These "almost adults" deserve a vacation all their own. So we give them the freedom to join pre-planned events throughout the day, or simply hang out in teen-only spaces with our teen staff that keeps the good times coming.
