Looking for an unforgettable holiday experience? Explore the high seas and see the world in a different way on a P&O cruise. Whether you’re a first-time cruiser or a seasoned seafarer, we offer cruise activities and experiences to suit the needs of every traveller.

From adventure parks to nightly entertainment and 60 onboard activities every day, you’ll never run out of things to do on a P&O cruise. Better yet, you’ll avoid the hurdles of conventional land holidays, leaving you more time for the important things: Relaxation and having the best time possible.

Read on to discover our pick of the top 5 cruise experiences for a holiday like no other.

1. Relaxation from the minute you step onboard

One of the best things about our cruises is the incredible level of freedom they give you. Simply step onboard and leave all your worries on the shore as you set sail for endless blue skies. When you’re on a P&O cruise, all you have to worry about is having a good time: Our friendly, professional crew will take care of the rest.

Make the most of your time off with a gym session or by booking into a relaxing treatment at our onboard spa - it’s a cruise experience no one can afford to miss!

Want breakfast in bed? Need extra sheets or towels? All you need to do is ask! Our crew are here to help you have the best cruise holiday experience possible. Whether you want to take things slow, pack as much into your schedule as possible, or find balance between the two, it’s your holiday and your choice. Activities on P&O cruises are varied enough that you can slip into a relaxation routine or dive headfirst into a new adventure every day.

2. Unbeatable choice and variety

Whether you’re taking your first cruise or your fiftieth, the beauty of cruising is that no two cruise experiences are ever exactly alike. Our long list of activities gives you an incredible variety of options for every single day. Where else will you find waterslides, an adventure park, dining options from award-winning Aussie chefs, and star-studded entertainment programs under the same roof? Nowhere on land, that’s for sure!

And with our Shore Tours and exotic destinations, the fun doesn’t stop when you go ashore. Live like a local for a day and explore stunning beaches and portside towns, then return to your room for a night of well-deserved R&R.

3. Edge Adventure Park

As far as fun things to do on a cruise go, it’s hard to go past Edge Adventure Park. Get your heart racing by zip lining the length of the ship, see the ship from a different angle with a daring funnel climb, or put your nerves to the test by walking the plank.

There is a range of Edge passes available, and options for adults and kids alike. Simply book your Edge Pass on Cruise Control before you set sail, or grab your tickets onboard.
