1. Enjoy a Leisurely Brunch
Sea days are perfect for sleeping in a little and enjoying a late breakfast or brunch, either in the main dining room or at the buffet. Carnival often offers a special sea day brunch experience.

2. Lounge by the Pool or on Deck
Relax in a lounge chair with an ocean view, sip a drink, read a book, or take a nap in the sun. This is a simple but classic sea day pleasure and available on all ships.

3. Explore the Spa or Join a Fitness Class
Sea days are great for self-care. Guests can book a massage or facial at the onboard spa or attend a yoga or fitness class (fees may apply).

4. Join Onboard Games and Trivia
Carnival hosts a range of free activities during the day, including trivia contests, arts and crafts, dance classes, and game shows. These are announced in the daily “Fun Times” schedule and on the Carnival Hub app.

5. Take in the Ocean Views
Sometimes, the best thing to do is nothing at all. Many guests enjoy relaxing on their balcony or walking the promenade deck to soak in the peaceful ocean atmosphere.

6. Evening Shows and Entertainment
Sea days wrap up with lively evening entertainment, including musical productions, comedy club shows, and themed parties. These events are included with the cruise and vary by ship.

Mini-Golf
Most Carnival ships feature a mini-golf course. This is not available on Carnival Adventure, Carnival Encounter, and Carnival Luminosa.

Waterslides and WaterWorks
Many ships have waterslides or full water park areas under the WaterWorks brand. Waterslides are available on all ships except Carnival Luminosa.

Serenity Adult-Only Retreat
This relaxing 21+ area is available on most ships, but not on Carnival Adventure and Carnival Encounter.

Ping Pong
Ping pong tables are found on most ships, though not on Mardi Gras.

Basketball, Pickleball, or Jogging Tracks
These features vary by ship and are typically available only on select vessels.

Morning
Start the day with a late breakfast or brunch, then enjoy coffee while lounging on deck or walking a few laps around the ship.

Late Morning
Participate in trivia, play mini-golf, or try a waterslide. Those seeking relaxation may opt for a spa service.

Lunch
Have a casual meal at the buffet or outdoor eatery. Afterward, unwind with a short nap or quiet reading time.

Afternoon
Attend a game session, craft workshop, or trivia event. Adults can relax at the Serenity Retreat (if available), while families enjoy the pool or water attractions.

Evening
Dress for dinner in the main dining room or try a specialty restaurant. Finish the evening with a show, comedy act, live music, or some time in the casino.
