Highlighted Transpacific Cruise Attractions
The following are just a few of the many things to do while on a Transpacific cruise:
Onboard Amenities
Since Transpacific cruises have long stretches of sea days, you will find yourself spending a lot of time onboard your ship. Most big ship cruise lines, such as Carnival Cruises and Royal Caribbean, offer seemingly endless onboard entertainment that should keep you entertained during your time at sea. Examples of the things you can find onboard large ocean liners typically include water slides, pools, hot tubs, casinos, bars and lounges, shops, spas, and fitness centers. Transpacific cruises are a great way to acquaint yourself with all that your cruise ship has to offer!
Enrichment Programs
Small or mid-sized cruise ships that don’t offer as many bells and whistles as their big ship counterparts are most likely to have incredible enrichment programming. This is perfect for travelers who are interested in learning something new, or discovering a topic of interest more deeply. Enrichment programs vary by cruise line, but often consist of hands-on culinary demonstrations, history and art lectures, and guest speakers. You may also discover live performances and music onboard.
Specialty Restaurants
When sailing a Transpacific cruise, you will have plenty of time to try all the mouthwatering restaurants onboard your ship, making it a great opportunity for “foodies.” Most ships that offer Transpacific cruises feature at least a few specialty restaurants, including a specialty steakhouse. Depending on the cruise line, your ship may also feature specialty Italian, French, or Asian restaurants. It is important to keep in mind the most specialty restaurants require a cover charge. However, the delicious high-quality cuisine that you get in return is well worth it!
