Norwegian Epic cruise ship

Norwegian Epic cruise ship is the fourth largest cruise ship in the world after Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas. When built in 2010 by STX Europe Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France, it was the third largest cruise ship in the world. It is a cruise ship of the "mega-class" that represents the "third generation" of Freestyle cruising vessels with 60% more passenger space than other largest ships of this type. After completion and acceptance, Norwegian Epic sailed on Thursday 24 June 2010 from Southampton to New York. When you are on Norwegian Epic, you'll understand why this Freestyle Cruising is of a truly grand scale:
  • Norwegian Epic has 4100 passenger berths, with all outside cabins having balconies.
  • Only on the Epic you can find 100 square foot interior studio cabins for solo passengers - the private Haven - with a shared "living room" for socializing.
  • Its Aqua Park' has the only tube and bowl water slide at sea: you’ll feel the exhilaration as you slide down 200 feet on The Epic Plunge.
  • You can try your skills on a rappelling wall and two three-lane bowling alleys.
  • You can have a drink in the −8°C Ice Bar where the drinks are served in ice glasses and patrons wear parkas.
  • The ship’s entertainment programs (especially two new Broadway shows: Ballroom Blitz and Priscilla, Queen of the Desert) are Awarded Best Cruise Ship Entertainment by Frommer’s.
  • There are over 20 different dining options on board where you can have your meal at any time without any restrictions or reservations.
  • From top to bottom and from bow to stern, Norwegian Epic has enough onboard activities to fill every minute of your cruise.
