REGAL PRINCESS
PHOTO TOUR AND COMMENTARY POOLS. SPORTS AND OPEN DECKSRegal Princess has three pool areas. In addition, her upper decks have a good variety of sports and leisure facilities.
|
The central pool area is known as the
Fountain Pool. Its name comes from 85 jets of water that shoot upwards 33 feet from the island that separates the main pool from a smaller circular splash pool. The jets of water are controlled so as to produce displays of dancing water. At night, colored lights are shined on the fountains to produce an even more spectacular effect. The central pool area also has two hot tubs, two bars, a light grill, a pizzeria and an ice cream stand as well as the giant Movies Under the Stars LED screen.

The forward pool area is the adults-only Retreat
Pool. In addition to the pool, this area has two hot tubs and a bar. On selected evenings, the area becomes the Night Sky Lounge, a Miami-style nightclub. |

|
Around the perimeter of the pool are cabanas with premium seating, which guests can reserve.

Breaking with the design of sister ship Royal Princess, the line included a third pool area on Regal Princess. The Terrace Pool is a small splash pool at the stern of the ship. It is served by the Outrigger Bar and is near the Horizon Court buffet restaurant.

The SeaWalk is a 60 foot walkway that extends out some 28 feet from the starboard side of the ship. From its clear glass floor,
intrepid guests can look down 128 feet to the sea below. There is a similar but not identical structure, which also houses a bar, on the port side.

Princess Sports Central, aft on decks 18 and 19, offers a variety of exercise options. Its centerpiece is the Center Court, which can be set up for basketball, volleyball, tennis or badminton. A portable batting cage can also be set up for baseball fans. Nearby
are ping pong tables and a room with a computerized shooting simulator where guests can use laser rifles for skeet shooting and target practice.
