Creator's Key Takeaways

And that's why you want to get off early and get your space. But I hope you enjoyed this tour of the Thrill Water Park. We love it.

When you're cruising with kids, when you find something for your kids to do and they love it and they're busy doing it, it really makes for a great day.

I was really shocked how fast it was. Again, it they're just quick. Really great.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get off the ship early to secure front-row loungers and avoid long slide lines.
βœ“Use the towel station in the water park so you don't have to carry towels.
βœ“If booking a cabana, look at numbers 33 through 38 near the wave pool for the best all-around area.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Walking distance from ship β€” Be prepared to walk down the pier as the tram service is limited.
