Norwegian Aqua Introduces Even More Space
Norwegian Aqua was crafted by renowned Italian shipbuilder, Fincantieri. Expanding on the award-winning design of Norwegian Prima and Norwegian Viva, Fincantieri built Aqua with 10 percent more size and capacity and more outdoor space. The impressive vessel will also offer the highest staffing levels of any new contemporary cruise ship.
Nothing beats sailing over the ocean as you relax in the sunshine, and Norwegian Aqua has this tradition covered in spades. For the first time in NCL history, guests can spread their wings in spacious day beds at the main pool deck. Aqua’s breathtaking infinity edge pool is also equipped with expanded seating, creating an unforgettable, “floating on the ocean” feeling. Over at the adults-only Vibe Beach Club, the space is bigger and the seating more plentiful. This is one of the best places on board to grab a cocktail and some rays (but, you may never want to leave).
