Why You Should Consider Cruising On Anthem Of The Seas

From adrenaline-amping attractions to poolside chillaxing, nothing beats a family cruise on Anthem of the Seas®. With something for every family member and all the boredom-busting options you’re craving, you’ll be hard-pressed to pack in the boatloads of adventure. Which is why we’ve rounded up some of our favorites: unforgettable experiences that will have your crew bonding on a whole new level. Read on for a sneak peak of what we think is the best cruise experience at sea.

CONQUER KILLER THRILLS

Think you can’t skydive on a cruise ship? Hang ten on a surfboard? Or learn to conquer a flying trapeze? Think again, because on Anthem of the Seas, these thrills are just a sampling of your daily fare! Pull a gravity-defying stunt on RipCord by iFly, the only skydiving simulator at sea. Test your surfing skills on Flowrider and take on circus-worthy moves at our complimentary Trapeze School. Did we mention bumper cars and roller skating at SeaPlex? With endless options for adventure, if you are looking for thrilling activities on a cruise ship, Anthem of the Seas is your ticket.

Indulge Your Inner Foodie

Have a taste for delicious Tuscan-inspired cuisine, a four-course Asian experience, or a juicy hamburger and fries? From Jamie’s Italian and Izumi to Johnny Rockets–and with more than 16 palate-pleasing dining venues–your taste buds are in for out-of-this world treats. No epicurean experience would be complete without dinner at the exclusive Chef’s Table, a succulent multi-course tasting extravaganza you will long savor. And to satisfy your family’s sweet tooth, make sure you head over to La Patisserie, where mouth-watering confections and scrumptious pastries are the order of the day. Because memorable dining is an important part of every holiday, nobody does it quite like Royal Caribbean.

Go For Family-Friendly Chills

Every family member deserves their special brand of a chillin’ good time, and on Anthem of the Seas, they’ve got it in spades! The kiddos will dig their cruise as much as you do with our award-winning Adventure Ocean® youth program and its age-appropriate groups and activities. From Royal Babies® and Royal Tots® on through to 12-year-old Voyagers, children will discover and play in safe and enriching environments. And older kids will love their own dedicated spaces: super-cool hang-outs where teens-only rule! For ultimate chills, the grown-up way, nothing beats a massage at the spa followed by shopping designer brands at duty-free prices. Then, round up the gang for a relaxing outdoor movie, munching on popcorn under star-studded skies.

Jive With the Poolside Vibe

When you think of things to do on a fun cruise ship, soaking in a crystalline pool nears the top of the list. On Anthem of the Seas, we’ve upped the pool scene, adding whirlpools, a rock-climbing wall and the amazing H2O Zone–a water park the kids won’t get enough of! With interactive geysers, water cannons, climbable statues, waterfalls and more, you too may want to have a go at the splish-splashy fun! Afterwards, grab a tall cold drink from the SkyBar and settle into a comfortable deck chair. Whether you’re working on your tan or chilling in the shade, Anthem of the Seas’ pool-deck-vibe has an island flavor you won’t want to miss.

Dive Into the Night

At the end of the day, it’s time to play a whole new way. Order champagne from room service and share a toast on your balcony. Or head over to North Star® and watch the sunset from the tallest viewing deck on a cruise ship, with breathtaking panoramic views. Watch robots mix your cocktails at Bionic Bar®, then pick your evening’s entertainment. An award-winning Broadway show? Check. Virtual concerts? Check, check. Casino action? Check, check, check. With so many bold options, it’s hard to choose. But whatever you do, top the evening off at Spectra’s Cabaret, where the future-forward mix of music, lights and tech is a must-see experience.

Live the endless adventure on Anthem of the Seas, an incredible destination in and of itself. You don’t have to be on a European cruise to savor the flavors of Italy, France and beyond, or take the kids to an amusement park to experience maxed out rides. All the bold thrills and chills are right here, waiting for your family to enjoy. So go ahead, book a cruise today.
