Adventure Ocean
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adventure Ocean is the brand name for Royal Caribbean International's youth activity program on board their vessels. It is run by a trained staff, and there are different programs tailored to fit seven separate age groups. Most Adventure Ocean activities are free. Some activities are sponsored by Fisher-Price and Crayola. The Adventure Ocean program includes Adventure Science, a science based lab where kids can do experiments at sea. “The Living Room,” “Fuel,” and “Optix” are the teen hangouts aboard Royal Caribbean ships.
Each Adventure Ocean staff member holds a four-year degree in an education, recreation and/or other related major from an accredited college or university or has qualified experience in working with children ages 3-17. In addition, the staff is certified in CPR.
The program is divided up into 7 age groups:
