Food and Drink onboard the Sun Princess☀️👑

You will not be short of dining options onboard this ship! The buffet and main dining both offer varied dishes from a multitude of different cuisines. There are also various food and drink vendors dotted throughout the ship for snacking throughout the day, including the much loved International Café for coffee and a snack or the lido tacos for a feast by the pool🌊

The speciality dining, however, is a truly exceptional and worthwhile experience. Catch by Rudi and the Butcher's Block were firm favourites!

Finally, this ship has a host of fabulous bars, all of which have different atmospheres and offer different menus from the raucous O'Malley's to the refined Crooners. We highly recommend Good Spirits at Sea for an immersive and educational experience combined with delicious drinks!

This is just a taste (no pun intended!) of the culinary wonders that this ship has to offer 🍽️🥂

🛳️ Health and Wellness - This ship has an array of facilities focused on wellbeing including (but not limited to) the amazing spa, outdoor jogging track, fitness classes and gym💪

🛳️ Leisure - The pool scene is great onboard, and you'll be sure to find a deck chair as there are plenty dotted around the ship. There are also various activities onboard to keep yourself entertained such as seeing a show at the Princess Arena, joining in at karaoke night at Princess Live or getting lost in a film at the iconic Movies Under the Stars✨
