steel1203 Posted June 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) hello, I am really pale as is the whole family so shade is important to us!! I was wondering where is the best places to go around the pool/outdoor public areas so that the family can hide out from the sun for a while?? Doing the 7 day from Barcelona and know it is going to be hot hot hot but love to find a shaded spot outdoors!! Appreciate any guidance :) Edited June 24, 2017 by steel1203 Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreestyleNovice Posted June 24, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Under the overhang of the upper deck at the main pool deck. Umbrellas at the tables at Spice H2O, aft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted June 24, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2017 There is a deck above the pool deck, which runs down the outside of the ship. This gives a lot of shade on the pool deck. Enough for a couple of rows of chairs. We don't spend much time on the pool deck, but if we do so then that's where we sit. You are very close to the pool. We have never had any trouble finding places to sit, but others on here have reported having trouble. I assume that's down to the time you are there.

Rare BirdTravels Posted June 24, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2017 But,,, the chair hogs are out verrrryyy early to grab those shady chairs. Go early if you want some. There are 4000 people competing for a hundred loungers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cully1953 Posted June 24, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 24, 2017 If you head towards Spice from the pool area there are some very comfortable shady sofas on the port side just before you get to the Marketplace, there are more within the Marketplace area also. On our sailing in early June we never had any trouble finding a shady spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted June 24, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Make sure you have on PLENTY of sunscreen, and reapply frequently! You will still get UV rays in the shade...the water is a powerful reflector! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
