What activities are available on board the ship?
You’ll find a wide range of onboard experiences, from enrichment and creative workshops to sports, wellness, games, and supervised youth activities.
On Holland America Line, the day can unfold exactly how you like it. Start with ‘Up Close presentations' our onboard talks that spotlight the stories, traditions, and culture of the places we visit, and then follow your curiosity wherever it leads.
If you’re in the mood to move, each cruise features a Sports Director who offers pickleball instruction for all experience levels, plus other ways to stay active. Prefer a quieter kind of focus? Join our art and craft classes, with instructors leading hands-on sessions like painting, coloring, origami, and more. It’s surprisingly satisfying, even if you are “not the artsy type.”
For friendly competition, drop into daily trivia, or root for your favorites during an evening game show. When it’s time to reset, treat yourself at the Greenhouse Spa & Salon®, visit the Fitness Center, or unwind in the pools and hot tubs.
And for guests who enjoy the buzz of the casino, you’ll find games for all levels, along with complimentary lessons to help you get comfortable. Traveling with younger cruisers? The Kids Club offers supervised activities for children ages 3 to 12, led by friendly, professionally trained staff.
Just be aware that specific offerings can vary by ship and sailing, so it’s smart to check your daily program once you are on board. Download the Navigator app to stay on top of daily schedules.
