A cruise kids will never forget

From Harri’s first hello at the terminal to bedtime stories on board, Harri the Seal cruises are filled with moments children will remember long after the journey ends. To help them navigate the wide choice of activities, each kid receives their own cruise program and a Harri “passport” to guide them through the onboard adventure.

Here’s all the fun you can have

Face paintings

A little colour goes a long way. Young souls aged 1 to 99 can come and get a face painting of their favourite character – why not Harri the Seal?

Sea school

Children get a peek into Harri’s everyday life on board and learn everything from how to navigate the sea to how to be a good sailor and a great friend.

Ask the captain
