Enjoying time off on your cruise doesn’t need to mean letting your fitness routine slide, so gear up and rendezvous with the power walking and jogging track on deck to get your daily exercise fix while also savouring outstanding ocean views.

Basketball

Come to the outdoor basketball court at the Sport Centre for a chance to hang out with friends, have fun shooting hoops and enjoy a full-body workout at the same time. You may not make the latest line-up of the Harlem Globetrotters, but you’re sure to have a great time.

Tennis Court

Anyone for tennis? Play to your heart’s content at the outdoor or indoor tennis court of our on-board Sport Center. Tennis is ideal for getting some healthy activity, honing your hand-to-eye coordination and having loads of fun. Game, set and match to you.

Volleyball

Fast-paced, energetic and a ton of fun to play, volleyball is one of the world’s most popular team sports and one you can enjoy at the outdoor volleyball court at the on-board Sport Centre. Burn some calories and get a thorough cardio-vascular workout while you land a kill and beat the opposing team.

Five-a-side Football

Fancy a game of footy? Your wish can be granted at the outdoor five-a-side football pitch at the Sport Centre. Team up with some friends or family and play a match against another on-board team. A great way to have fun, get active and turn strangers into friends.

Squash Court

If a fast game of squash is your favourite way of keeping fit or if you’d just like to give it a first go, simply book the outside squash court at our on-board Sport Centre and prepare to hit it like a pro. First played in Harrow, England, in 1830, the game certainly looks back on a long history.

Barber Shop

Inside the MSC Aurea Spa there’s a dedicated Barber Shop to keep you looking at your best during your time on board! Leave the salon styled and ready for a great evening.
