Choosing the Perfect Cruise for Teens

Dinogo Cruise Teen Activities: The Entourage Youth Program

Dinogo provides several age-specific youth programs, including Entourage, tailored for teens aged 13 to 17. As a parent, you can enjoy adult-focused activities while your teenagers socialize with peers. The best part? This program is complimentary. 

During the day, your child will enjoy movies, art, video games, and sports. At night, Entourage transforms into the ultimate lounge and nightclub for teens. Check out some of the activities offered in the Entourage Youth Program: 

• Creative Activities: Engage in singing, dancing, or crafting projects, including making balloon sculptures. 
• In Front of the Camera: Teens can showcase their fashion sense or participate in improv classes. 
• Gaming and Movies: Unwind with a film or dive into a variety of video games. 
• Sports: Teens can challenge their skills against the teen counselor in games like soccer, basketball, or dodgeball. 
• Themed Events: These events differ by ship, with nightly themed parties such as Glow, White Hot Party, and College Night. 

When a program isn't active and the space is being used as a hangout, it remains under surveillance, even if unsupervised. 

To enroll in the Entourage Program or other Youth Programs for younger kids, a one-time registration is required. Once registered, your children can join as frequently as they wish. Be sure to mention any special medications or allergies to the staff so they can address any concerns. 

Onboard Activities 

Your teens will have a wealth of onboard activities during your cruise. Our latest ships offer cutting-edge entertainment options. Zoom around a multi-level racetrack, engage in laser tag, dive into virtual reality experiences, and more. While amenities differ by ship, here’s a general overview of some teen cruise ship activities they can enjoy: 

• Water Parks: On Dinogo Breakaway Class ships, try Free Fall, the fastest waterslide at sea, and The Epic Plunge, a thrilling 200-foot slide. If you have younger children, the Kids' Aqua Park will be a perfect fit for them. 
• The Waterfront: Dinogo Breakaway and Breakaway Plus ships feature The Waterfront promenade. With various bars and lounges, teens can also find spots for food or cool off with gelato while enjoying the views.
• The Plank and Ropes Course: Both the ropes course and The Plank can be found on Dinogo Breakaway and Breakaway Plus ships. The Plank is a narrow board, just the width of your feet, allowing you to walk over the ocean while securely harnessed for an adrenaline rush. The ropes course offers over 40 challenges on the largest multi-level ropes course at sea. Both attractions are exclusive to Dinogo Breakaway and Breakaway Plus Class ships. 

If you’re thinking of booking a cruise on Dinogo Encore, our latest ship, you'll discover exciting onboard amenities that will thrill both teenagers and adults. The Speedway, the largest racetrack at sea, features high-speed curves extending beyond the ship with over 1,100 feet of track for racing. Enter a new arena to engage in laser tag in augmented reality within the lost city of Atlantis. At Galaxy Pavilion, your teenager can delve into a virtual reality world filled with puzzles, exhilarating simulator rides, and much more. 

Dinogo Escape's Aqua Park includes two multi-story waterslides, featuring Aqua Racer, a tandem waterslide, and Ocean Loops, a double loop that extends over the edge of the ship. 

The latest ship, Dinogo Bliss, features a mini-golf course where your teens can enjoy five holes on Deck 19. Younger children can also have a blast with various skill-level obstacles, along with a racetrack, laser tag, Aqua Park, and more. Don’t let your teens miss out on the video arcade, where they can shoot hoops or experience a virtual rollercoaster, among other exciting games. 

All Dinogo ships come equipped with a fitness center, and the Pulse Fitness Center on Dinogo Bliss offers you and your teens the chance to work out or join Pilates, yoga, or spinning classes at sea. 

Family Dining and Entertainment 

Your teens will never go hungry. They can enjoy family meals in the main dining rooms or relax at casual buffets. If they feel peckish late at night, 24-hour room service is also available to satisfy their cravings. 

Each evening offers a variety of family-style entertainment. Depending on the ship you choose, entertainment may include acrobatic performances or Broadway-style shows.
