Be pampered in the beauty salon, treat yourself to a massage, work out in the fitness centre, enjoy the latest film releases, or have a drink with friends at one of the many bars. A more relaxed environment can be found in the comfortable library and card room, whilst well-furnished lounges offer the perfect place to unwind. There's also plenty of deck space available, from where you can enjoy great views of the ever-changing vista and wonderful wildlife. You might also like to take a dip in the pool on deck! If this wasn't enough, there's a specially arranged programme of evening entertainment, including live cabaret and excellent shows, available every night in the Calypso Show Lounge. Be entertained by performers who definitely wouldn't be out of place on a West End stage, or you might also like to try your luck in the casino.

Naturally, all meals and entertainment are included on board Leave the diet behind as you are treated to breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, a delicious dinner and even midnight snacks, served in the impressive Olissipo Restaurant, which boasts only one sitting.
