Some Caribbean island destinations include the Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas and Harvest Caye in Belize.
Norwegian Getaway boasts 40 restaurants, bars, and lounges, a Waterfront for stunning ocean views, the Mandara Spa and Salon, spacious accommodations, and plenty of entertainment. Families can enjoy top-deck activities, including a sports complex, a ropes course, and a water park with five waterslides, two pools, four hot tubs, and two slides.
Norwegian Epic, with a guest capacity of 4,100, features 19 bars and lounges, 15 complimentary and specialty restaurants, a Mandara Spa and Salon, an adults-only beach club, a water park with two pools, five hot tubs, three water slides, and a kid’s pool. The ship also offers nightly entertainment like "Burn the Floor," The Cavern Club, and Deal or No Deal.
🚢 When can I book one of these cruises?
Bookings for these voyages will be on sale this coming February, so you have time to request PTO and gather the crew!
