Navigator of the Seas

You name it, Navigator's got it

Navigator of the Seas, launched in December 2002, features all of the innovative leisure facilities expected of Royal Caribbean's Voyager class ships.

So that means you can ice-skate, rock climb, play miniature golf, use the in-line skating tracks or simply shop till you drop on the Royal Promenade shopping mall with bars, shops, and restaurants.

When she arrived, Navigator of the Seas also boasted the first-ever wine bar at sea (Vintages), the first Latin jazz bar at sea (Boleros), and the first-ever Ben and Jerry’s ice cream parlour at sea.

The ship is particularly well suited for the family cruising market, with a massive 22,000 sq ft area dedicated to its Adventure Ocean Youth Programme,
including teen-only decks.

Navigator of the Seas joined her three sister ships - Voyager of the Seas, Explorer of the Seas and Adventure of the Seas - as the world’s largest and most innovative cruise vessels at that time.
