In fact, with so many amazing onboard features, great activities, spacious amenities, and stunning destinations, you'll have a hard time averting your eyes from this stunning cruise ship.

Norwegian Sun - Alaska
Take a cruise to Alaska's amazing Sawyer Glacier and see Juneau; Skagway; Ketchikan; and Prince Rupert, British Columbia, along the way. Much of Alaska is really America's last wild frontier, timeless and untouched. It's a seemingly boundless land, with immeasurable beauty. While you'll only get to see a fraction of it, it will prove to be more than enough to give you never-ending memories.

Taking a Pacific Coastal cruise along the western coast of America and Canada is like seeing the world for the first time.

Norwegian Sun - Panama Canal Cruise
Considered by many to be Man's ultimate engineering achievement, the Panama Canal is flanked by many ports of call on the Pacific and Atlantic sides. You'll see great ports of call in Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America along the way. It's not clear what you'll remember more fondly: going through the Canal or the visiting the ports of call on either side of it.
There are two itineraries from which you can choose. The first is the 17-Day Panama Canal Cruise from Miami to San Francisco. You'll stop at ports of call in the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America.

Norwegian Sun - Western Caribbean
Norwegian Sun has three Western Caribbean itineraries; each leaves from a different port city, and as such, gives passenger an opportunity to experience a multitude of ports of call. On a cruise to the Western Caribbean, you'll travel to places such as Santo Tomas De Castilla, Guatemala; Grand Cayman; and Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico. From timeworn Mayan temples reaching towards the stars to the most modern and cosmopolitan attractions, it's no wonder why the Western Caribbean is so popular with cruisers.

The Inside Stateroom has two twin beds and a surprising amount of room. Still, there's no window and not an enormous amount of room compared to many of the other staterooms and suites available.
Norwegian Sun Cruise Ship - Entertainment
Featuring the longest bar at sea, Dazzles Nightclub is the perfect place to unwind anytime. It has the longest bar at sea, and it is a perfect place for an evening gala or quiet conversation.
Premium champagne and vodkas, caviar, pate and foie gras---it all can be found at the Champagne Bar, a very hip place with a warm atmosphere. It's an ideal setting for an intimate cocktail party or reception.
Music, dancing, lights, singing---you won't need an excuse for the standing ovation in the Stardust Lounge! During the evening, this resplendent 1000-person theater offers the best entertainment at sea. It also doubles as a large-group meeting facility by day.
Norwegian Sun's Sun Club Casino features blackjack, roulette, slots, poker tables, and you! You've already made a great bet by sailing with Norwegian Sun; why don't you see if Lady Luck has stuck with you!
Perfect for the big game, the Sports Bar is a great watering hole to root for your favorite team. There's also several other bars, lounges, and public spaces where you can have great conversation or just people watch. Teens aren't forgotten either; they'll find fun in the teens-only dance club, the Zone.
Norwegian Sun Cruise Ship -Activities

You can just relax by the 2 adult pools or 1 kids' pool on the Norwegian Sun cruise ship. Get your blood pumping with a coffee in the Java Cafe or by jumping in on a game of basketball or volleyball on the sports deck. In fact, there are so many things to do (or not to do!) while on this cruise ship, that it would be practically impossible to name them all.
Don't forget to pick up a souvenir in the Galleria; gifts and keepsakes from the affordable to the opulent are available to take home with you.

For Italian food that's as carefully prepared by the chefs as it is eagerly anticipated by the diners, Il Adagio Restaurant is the place to be.
The two main dining rooms-the Four Seasons and the Seven Seas-feature master chefs and are wonderful spots for a family reunion or a romantic evening. The former offers diners a panoramic view of sea and sky to enhance the five-course meals; the latter is a lavishly decorated as it does serve exquisite food.
Ginza is an amazing Japanese Restaurant with freshly prepared sushi everyday, as well as many other tempting and flavorful foods. Or, try East Meets West for a fusion of Asian and Western cooking.
