Wonder of the Seas - Activities for Kids | Royal Caribbean
Activities for kids and families on Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas. The largest cruise ship in the world.
What can kids do on Royal Caribbeans Wonder of the Seas? Let me start by saying the kids club is just the beginning. Here are my top activities for kids and families on Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas.
Laser Tag: Clash for the Crystal City
The story goes that sometime in the distant future. Two teams battle it out in a glow-in-the-dark laser tag faceoff in a frozen-themed wasteland.
The course itself is a massive inflatable castle, that is set up in Studio B, the ship’s indoor ice rink.
The ice is covered with carpet so you won’t slip but shoes are required for this.
Children must be at least 5 years old to play and 40 inches but it’s not just for kids. It’s a great activity for families or even if the kids can play themselves while you watch.
Here’s a tip: you need to make reservations once onboard Wonder of the Seas, so on Day 1 scroll through the Daily Planner in the Royal Caribbean app to see which days laser tag is being offered.
Chances are you’ll want to play more than once so sign up for a few games. Stand-by spots are also available but you know…it’s standby so who knows if you’re going to get in. Better to make a reservation.
Wonder PlayScape
For your little ones, Wonder PlayScape is an underwater-themed world with slides, child-size climbing walls, games, and puzzles.
And by night, the playscape transforms into an otherworldly seascape with special lighting and effects.
Adult supervision is required here but there are places to sit. Or, you can get in on the fun and play together.
Boardwalk on Wonder of the Seas
The Boardwalk Neighborhood located on deck 6 aft, is where you’ll find complimentary carousel rides and even special events like the Family Fun Day Carnival.
The carnival has a chocolate fountain, cotton candy machines, games for kids,and live entertainment.
Be sure to check the daily planner on the Royal Caribbean app for special events on the Boardwalk.
These events are popular so I recommend getting there a few minutes early.
But of course, the carousel is the main attraction here. Those are hand-carved horses by the way!
The Boardwalk Neighborhood also has the Dog House featuring hot dogs and brats.
All of this is included in your cruise fare.
Ultimate Abyss
There are 2 kinds of people in the world. Those who think sliding down 10 stories on Wonder of the Seas, sounds exciting, and those who think it sounds terrifying.
Well, it’s actually not as terrifying as it looks.
It’s a regular slide, not a water slide, and you sit in on a mat all the way down.
You can actually control how fast you go once inside by pulling up on the front handle.
While it is thrilling, it’s not as intimidating as you might think.
Inside there are lighting and sound effects that make it even more exciting.
Just remember that when come to a stop at the bottom, you’ll be on Deck 6 - the Boardwalk and you will need to take an elevator back up.
The minimum highest is 44” and you do not need reservations.
Adventure Ocean Kids Club
Royal Caribbean ships are of course family ships, but Wonder of the Seas takes it to the next level. Adventure Ocean is way beyond a kids club.
Adventure Ocean is included for children between the ages of 3 and 11.
Inside there are plenty of activities just for kids like science experiments, an Imagination Studio presented by Crayola, scheduled character appearances starring popular DreamWorks characters, and scavenger hunts.
They also have field trips to the sports courts, and video arcades where the games are free movie nights (even Disney movies which I think is awesome...because well, you know, this isn’t Disney Cruise Line).
Kids may also be escorted to Windjammers buffet for dinner - they even have their own little buffet.
Adventure Ocean is open from about 9 am to 10 pm, but it does close periodically so be sure to check to schedule.
On Port Days it’s typically open the entire time Wonder of the Seas is in port.
Adventure Ocean Late Night Party starts at 10 pm, for $7 per hour. Kids can stay until 2 am.
I recommend you attend the Adventure Ocean open house on Embarkation Day. You can meet the crew and register your child. You can also play together in the different spaces during open house.
Babies and Tots Programs on Wonder of the Seas
Wonder of the Seas has a babies program just for those between the ages of 6 months and 18 months in Adventure Ocean Babies.
Adventure Ocean Junior is for children ages 18 months to 36 months. They must be potty trained to enter.
A small fee applies to both AO Babies and AO Junior which is about $7 per hour.
Social 100 Teen Club
Teens age 13 - 17 have their own space on board too - and Wonder of the Seas really does a great job of giving them options and variety.
They will just be so thrilled to get some space (and believe me, you will too!)
There are 2 parts, the Social 100 Club on Deck 16, an indoor place to chill, play video games, and socialize.
They also have planned activities at the sports deck in the evenings.
Plus there’s a private Social 100 outdoor area on Deck 17.
Here they have places to chill, and sit in the hot tub, there’s even a refreshment bar serving non-alcoholic beverages.
Teens are allowed to come and go as they please.
If you have a teen who is going by themselves, I recommend they attend on the first night. The crew does introductions and icebreakers so the kids can make friends.
Also on Day 1 parents can tour the teen club and register.
The Perfect Storm
There’s a water park located on the pool deck which features dual racer sides, the first boomerang-style and headfirst mat racer waterslides at sea, and a Champagne bowl slide, where after braving the slide, you emerge in a giant "bowl" before sliding down one more tube.
Oh, I know what you’re thinking - sounds like a toilet bowl. Exactly!
This onboard water park is included with your cruise fare.
Height and weight restrictions apply, I recommend these slides for those ages 7 and up.
Splashaway Bay
Pint-sized cruisers can have a blast too in Splashaway Bay water park.
This water playscape features colorful waterslides, water cannons, fountains, pools, and whirlpools for tots to tweens (and their supervising parents).
Kids must be potty trained. The slide has a minimum height requirement of 42”.
Wonder of the Seas Zip Line
You are suspended on the Zip Line nine decks up above the Boardwalk Neighborhood on Wonder of the Seas.
It’s hard to imagine that this can be done on a cruise ship! The zip line is open to kids age 12+ and a minimum of 52”. A parent must be present.
You’ll need closed-toe shoes with laces so, don’t forget those. The zip line is included in your fare, no reservation is required.
Check the daily planner in the Royal app for times once onboard.
Flowrider Surf Simulator
This surf simulator is one of the most popular activities for kids and adults alike. Reservations are recommended -make them in the Royal app. If your child is new to surfing, they offer boogie boarding in addition to stand-up surfing.
Private lessons are also available starting at around $70.
If they get the hang of it, expect a big cheer from the crowd. We all know it’s not easy so it’s nice to see others cheer them on.
Wiping out is inevitable but don’t worry, Flowrider is basically a giant trampoline with water, so you just bounce around until coming to a rest.
Still, you will need to pass a quick physical agility test and sign a waiver so you should allow for additional time prior to your reservation time.
Wonder Dunes Mini-Golf
I recommend playing miniature golf at night. Why? Because it’s hot on the top deck during the day.
But Wonder of The Seas has something special: nighttime lighting effects.
This is actually a great activity that the entire family can enjoy together.
It’s included with your cruise and you can play as many times as you like. No reservations are required.
Wonder of the Seas Sports Court
The sports court is always busy, especially with teens looking to play basketball. Social 100 will sometimes have activities planned here as well in the evenings.
Spotlight Karaoke
From show tunes or shower tunes, your entire family can sing your favorite hits with thousands of popular songs to choose from.
Reservations are required and they can be made in the Royal app once onboard. This is a popular activity so I recommend reserving on Day 1.
Wonder of the Seas Arcade
The arcade on Wonder of the Seas isn’t as popular as other ships probably because there are so many other activities for kids.
But you’ll find a good mix of games from the 80s, 90s, and today.
The games are not included in your cruise fare but the Adventure Ocean team sometimes brings the kids over for free play.
Rock Climbing Wall
Rock climbing walls have become a guest favorite on Royal Caribbean ships and Wonder of the Seas has 2! Both are located in the aft, just behind the Boardwalk Neighborhood. These 30 ft tall rock walls are open to kids age 6+.
Rock climbing is supervised by crew members and they are great about encouraging kids to keep going. It’s much harder than it looks.
Kids can safely and slowly repel back down - which is the fun part!
Reservations are not needed and it is included with your cruise fare.
Just remember to bring a pair of socks because special rock climbing shoes will be provided.
Intense Aqua-Theater Performance
Kids might not immediately be too fond of having to sit through a show but Intense on Wonder of the Seas is different.
It’s a high-energy show with powerful music and has everything from pool plunging to tightrope teetering and beyond.
This show is extremely popular and has limited seating so you definitely want to make a reservation in the Royal app as soon as you’re on board.
Arrive 30 minutes prior to show time to secure a good seat.
I also recommend sitting towards the rear of the theater as some performances take palace over the audience.
Kid-Friendly Food on Wonder of the Seas
From the Sorrentos Pizza to the cutest buffet line called KidJammers, there are plenty of kid-friendly dining options onboard Wonder of the Seas.
Even the main dining room is kid friendly.
It’s a great time to see if they want to try something new because almost everything is included in your cruise fare. If they don’t like it, that’s ok, they can order something else.
I got my son to try Escargot as an appetizer. It didn’t go well, but hey, he tried it and it was really funny to watch.

Utopia of the Seas - The World's largest Cruise Ship Coming in 2024
Utopia of the Seas will be the largest cruise ship in the world.
Royal Caribbean announced that work has officially started on the next Oasis Class cruise ship, Utopia of the Seas. While we don’t know much about it just yet, Royal Caribbean shared that it will be the largest cruise ship in the world and the first Oasis Class cruise ship to be powered by liquified natural gas.
I’m a big fan of the Oasis Class cruise ships, having just sailed on Symphony of the Seas, I can tell you there’s no experience like it. You can see photos from my adventure on my social media channels:

In January 2022 Wonder of the Seas, currently the largest cruise ship in the world has officially joined Royal Caribbean’s fleet.

CDC No Longer Warning Travelers About Cruise Travel
CDC no longer warning travelers about risk of contracting COVID on cruise ships after 2 years
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention dropped its risk assessment of cruise travel yesterday after more than two years of warning travelers against the dangers of contracting COVID-19 on a cruise.
Symphony of the Seas
"CDC is removing the COVID-19 Cruise Ship Travel Health Notice," said spokesperson Dave Daigle.
Travelers can now make their own risk assessment when choosing to travel on a cruise ship, much like they do in all other travel settings.

Photo Tour: The Largest Cruise Ship in the World - Symphony of the Seas
Highlights from my recently voyage on the largest cruise ship in the world, Symphony of the Seas
It carries nearly 9,000 passengers, has 25 pools, 18 decks, 12 specialty restaurants, 7 distinct neighborhoods and it weighs 228,000 tons.
Symphony of the Seas | Royal Caribbean
Symphony of the Seas, a Royal Caribbean Oasis Class ship, is the largest cruise ship in the world, well it was until Wonder of the Seas came in January of 2022, but they are close in size.
I’ve always wanted to travel on a Royal Caribbean Oasis Class ship, there are 5 in all.
This particular cruise departed Miami, Florida for a 7-night Western Caribbean itinerary with stops at Costa Maya, Mexico; Roatan, Honduras; Cozumel, Mexico and Perfect Day at Coco Cay, Bahamas.
Royal Caribbean moves its fleet of ships all over the world, but lately several of them have been sailing from Florida.
Harmony of the Seas, a sister to Symphony, is currently based in Port Canaveral (Orlando), so you can easily combine an Oasis Class voyage with a trip to Walt Disney World or Universal Orlando.
Contact me today to learn more about sailing on Symphony of the Seas, or any other Royal Caribbean cruise from Florida. Agency Exclusive Offers available!
Here are a few my favorite parts of this ship:
Oceanview Balcony Stateroom
On this voyage we had a Oceanview Balcony stateroom. There are 2,759 standard staterooms and 188 suites. You can also book an interior balcony stateroom overlooking Central Park or the Boardwalk.
Oceanview rooms balconies with little more privacy, but I think it would be fun have a room overlooking the interior of the ship. How often do you have a balcony facing the inside of a ship??
Symphony of the seas Casino
Stay tuned for more posts about this cruise including our port adventure to Chichen Itza, the Mayan temples in Mexico. Plus my recent cruise on the Disney Fantasy.

Land and Sea Summer Vacay in Orlando
August deals on Royal Caribbean from Orlando (Port Canaveral, Florida) are available now
Earlier this week I shared that Disney Cruise Line is sold out for summer sailings. But it’s not too late! Go Royal Caribbean out of Port Canaveral and save big. Port Canaveral is less than an hour away from the Orlando theme parks and airport.
Tip #1 - Take Advantage of Royal Caribbean Offers in August
The cruise lines want your business. Obviously they have been hit hard by the pandemic plus they are recovering from a period of highly restrictive and confusing CDC regulations.
The cruise lines have every reason to ensure guests are safe onboard. An outbreak on one ship, any ship, would be disastrous for the entire industry. No one wants that.
All of the major cruise lines have exceeded the CDC guidelines and have proven they can sail safely.
As the industry struggles to recover, the cruise lines are offering amazing discounts.
This is your opportunity to enjoy the family vacation of a lifetime, for less. This means you can do even more.
Take a look at these rates for August 2022 using Royal Caribbean’s latest promotion:
Oasis of the Seas | Royal Caribbean
Royal Caribbean August Sailings from Port Canaveral, Florida*
August 1, 2022 - 4 night sailing from $433 per person
August 4, 2022 - 4 night sailing from $233 per person
August 5, 2022 - 3 night sailing from $318 per person
August 8, 2022 - 5 night sailing from $313 per person
August 12, 2022 - 3 night sailing from $309 per person
August 15, 2022 - 4 night sailing from $349 per person
August 19, 2022 - 3 night sailing from $309 per person
August 22, 2022 - 4 night sailing from $339 per person
August 26, 2022 - 3 night sailing from $288 per person
Tip 2: Visit the Orlando Theme Parks
You’ll be in Orlando anyway, so why not plan a visit to Walt Disney World or Universal Orlando?
I help clients everyday plan Land and Sea vacations in Orlando. A 3 or 4 night cruise on Royal Caribbean plus 3 or 4 nights at the Orlando theme parks is a great vacation.
Everyday I work with clients who trust me show them how to book a Land and Sea vacation. Put my experience to work
Royal Caribbean Cruise Line offers a family-focused vacation experience just like Disney Cruise Line. Actually, Royal Caribbean’s private island in the Bahamas, Perfect Day at Coco Cay, usually gets higher marks than Disney’s Castaway Cay Island.
Now is the best time to begin planning your summer vacation. Cruise fares will increase as the sail date gets closer. Those who book early save the most.
*Price is per person, in USD, for cruise only on select sailings and stateroom categories, based on double-occupancy, reflects any promotional savings, and is subject to change and availability. Taxes, fees, and port expenses are additional. Bookings made under the Non-Refundable Deposit Program are subject to a 100 USD cancellation or change fee per guest. Price includes non-commissionable cruise fare. Additional restrictions apply, including the terms and conditions of any promotions and pricing programs. © 2019 Royal Caribbean.

Seasoned Travelers Are Booking Their Summer Vacations Now. Here's why
Those who know, book summer travel now. Let me help you find the best options for your Orlando vacation this summer.
Now is the time to book summer 2022 travel! Seasoned travelers know that winter is the best time to book summer travel in order to get the best rates and the best availability. Orlando is one of the top destinations in the world for summer vacations.
Spaceship Earth | Epcot
Those who you put off their summer vacation plans will likely end up paying more.
Demand for summer travel is off the charts. For example, 99% of Disney Cruise Line's summer and fall cruises from Port Canaveral are now sold out.
The Disney Wish will begin sailing in mid-July so that may help with availability on 3 and 4 night sailings - I should have an update for you on Feb 8th.
Disney Wish | Disney Cruise Line
Most 3, 4, and 7 night cruises on Disney Cruise Line are sold out summer through fall 2022.
But even the Disney Fantasy which does 7-night eastern and western Caribbean sailings, is sold out for the summer. Ask me about Royal Caribbean sailings, there is still availability.
Standard room at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
At Walt Disney World, nights that are typically available are now sold out. Standard View rooms at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort are almost always available in late August even as a last minute booking.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort | Walt Disney World
Today, they are already sold out for most dates in August. This is a first for me, in all my years of helping clients book Disney vacations I have never seen Disney’s Polynesian Resort sell out in late August.
There are still plenty of options, but I'm seeing that the more economical categories across the cruise lines and Walt Disney World are booking fast.
Contact me today to begin planning your summer vacation. I'll show you the best available options for Disney World plus some great offers from Royal Caribbean and Universal Orlando.

Disney Cruise Line: Disney Dream Sold Out for Summer, Fall 2022
Now is the time to book summer travel! Summer and fall Disney cruises from Port Canaveral are sold out, or out or nearly sold out. Contact me today for options.
If you have been trying to book a summer 2022 vacation you know how difficult it has been trying to find availability at popular destinations like Disney Cruise Line, Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort.
Demand for summer travel is soaring right now, I haven’t worked with this many clients, who are actively booking vacations in my entire career.
To this point, all 3 and 4 night Disney Cruise Line sailings from Port Canaveral are now unavailable from from mid-June through December 2022.
3 and 4 night cruises from Port Canaveral on Disney Cruise Line are no longer available.
Recently Disney Cruise Line announced that the Disney Wish was going to be delayed by a few weeks.
Searches for cruises on the Disney Cruise Line website are returning no results from summer and fall 2022 on Port Canaveral sailings.
Now the Disney Wish will begin sailing out of Port Canaveral in mid-July 2022. More details will be announced on February 8, 2022.
This complicated an already busy cruise season as guests on the Disney Wish were given priority to rebook or to receive a Future Cruise Credit.
The future of the Disney Dream is also uncertain. It was scheduled to begin sailing out of the Miami area once the Disney Wish arrived.
Now is the best time to book a summer cruise in order to get the best prices. If you’re a seasoned cruiser you already know this.
Fortunately Royal Caribbean Cruise Line still has availability out of Port Canaveral, Florida. RCCL also offers family-centered cruise vacations, similar to Disney Cruise Line, often for a lot less.
Read more about Royal Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral.
While I’m sure there is a lot of disappointment around this, I’d rather that Disney get it right rather than rush it. I’m sure it will be worth the wait.
But right now is the best time to book your Royal Caribbean cruise to the Bahamas.
My clients enjoy great deals on Royal Caribbean and a generous onboard credit - to be used to almost anything you like while on your cruise.
