Creator's Key Takeaways

One of the best shows that you will ever see on a cruise ship, whether it is the one on Star or Icon or even the any on the Oasis class, the Aqua Theater show is worth seeing.

The overlook is something special and we're glad that they added it to the icon class because it is definitely an amazing area to hang out at.

It is insanely gorgeous in here at night.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Arrive early for the Aqua Theater show to get a good seat.
Purchase spa services pre-cruise for the best price.
Check the app for times and events in Surfside.
Take your time to find all the hidden art accents around the ship.
