Located on Decks 19, 20 and 21, Park19 consists of nine offerings including Sea Breeze, the Rollglider. This uses an overhead track with seated and harnessed riders reaching speeds up to 11 mph during a 60- to 90-second experience that is ADA accessible.
Another activity, Coastal Climb, is a climbing structure where participants ascend from Decks 19 to 20 through a series of obstacles. Once at the top, they can take in the views before sliding down to the bottom.
The Lookout
Or, from the top of the climbing structure, adventurers can make their way to The Lookout open-air observation for 360-degree views from the highest point available to passengers on Sun Princess.
