Norwegian introduces Bikini Bottom aqua club
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star and Squidward will join children at an all-new pirate-themed aqua park on board NCL’s newest ship.
Norwegian Getaway, which starts sailing from Miami in February, will be the first ship to have The Nickelodeon Kids’ Aqua Park with "whimsical and larger than life" Nickelodeon characters from Bikini Bottom.
It will also have a kid-sized pool and slide and other water features that squirt and shower guests.
Following its premier on Norwegian Breakaway, Norwegian Getaway will offer families the opportunity to experience the all-new ‘Name that Game’, where participants hit the buzzer and race the clock as they experience the best of Nickelodeon’s famous game shows live on one stage.
Norwegian Getaway will also feature the popular Nickelodeon Pajama Jam, where kids have the opportunity to enjoy an action-packed breakfast experience with their favourite Nickelodeon Characters, plus Dora’s Dance Party and Story Time with Dora.
