havanadaydreaming Posted August 25, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2019 what's your favorite sea day activity (non lounger division) on a Carnival cruise? it's been a while since I've been on board and I don't recall anything being too terribly unique, but im sure that's my memory failing.

nwcruiselover Posted August 25, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) Trivia. I like the challenge of winning a ship on a stick. Edited August 25, 2019 by nwcruiselover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterbean1000 Posted August 25, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 25, 2019 It varies on the mood I'm in, the person I'm cruising with. Anywhere from chilling on deck, to trivia, to reading on the balcony or hanging out at a bar. It changes all the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sc4125 Posted August 25, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I typically do not spend time laying out on sea days due to the crowds - though I may go out early in the morning, grab a drink, read & then pack it in when it starts to get crowded. I then spend quite a bit of time in the casino, go to trivia when it's a subject I like, relax on the balcony with my kindle, and take a little nap before taking a shower and getting ready for the evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comiso13 Posted August 25, 2019 #9 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I enjoy starting a sea day with the sea day brunch, meeting new people. Then sitting at a bar interacting with the variety of people there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseygirl1416 Posted August 26, 2019 #14 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Sitting in a lounge chair in the sun facing the ocean. A kindle in one hand and a drink in the other. Perfect day! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillyFan33579 Posted August 26, 2019 #16 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Since the OP mentioned non lounger division, my favorite activities are drinking and socializing at a bar, playing trivia for categories I am familiar with (scoring 2 out of 20 on games like Harry Potter gets old fast), playing in the casino, and spending time in the thermal suite on ships that have one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaz Posted August 26, 2019 #17 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Sea Day Brunch -- it's seriously one of the best meal experiences on Carnival. Also, always on the last sea-day, there's the Behind the Fun tour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joebucks Posted August 26, 2019 #19 Share Posted August 26, 2019 - Sea day brunch: gotta have my filet mignon and scrambled eggs - Cigar/bourbon while watching the sea - Carribean steel drums on the lido. That music makes me relax like no other - Serenity once I've seen what I want to see at the lido For me, 90%+ of my sea day is up on lido/serenity until about 4 pm. Trivia is not for me, but I'm really glad they have it. It's great to have activities for different likes around the ship, to reduce the lido clutter. Port days are still my favorite. 1-2 sea days are just fine, once you get into more, you start to get a bit bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovefuninthesun Posted August 26, 2019 #22 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Our favorite activity is the Sea Day Brunch. However, our very favorite thing to do is a non-activity: doing nothing -- lazing on the balcony, watching the world go by! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am enamored with the blue water. We don't have that where I come from. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
