The Norwegian Gem is a vacation destination all its own. You don’t have to take part in any shore excursions to enjoy the full benefit of a cruise on this ship with the wide variety of fitness and relaxation opportunities it provides for passengers of all ages. Yin and Yang is the spa experience you need for the pampering of a lifetime with all types of spa treatments, massages and procedures.

You can have an acupuncture treatment, have a hot stone massage, soak away your stresses in a Jacuzzi tub or relax in the steam room that will eliminate the toxins from your body. There are heated loungers in this facility and facial treatments where the technician will take a before and after photo.



You don’t have to stress about your hair before you delve into the evening’s entertainment with a hair salon on site where you can have a simple wash and blowdry or try out a new hairstyle.

The gaming opportunities in the Spinnaker Lounge are plentiful with card tables set up by the pool and large shuffleboard tables. You may have played Wii at home, but the experience on the Norwegian Gem is one of a kind. The two-story screen is an experience you don’t want to miss and one that adults and children thoroughly enjoy. This cruise ship is the only one that has a bowling alley on board, which adds up to great fun for families and friends in the Bliss Ultra Lounge. In fact there are two alleys, located side by side.

Work out on the equipment in the fitness center where you have the added advantage of being able to engage a personal trainer to design a workout program for you. This is something that you can continue when you return home to remain physically fit. Take a stroll at your own pace on the Promenade Deck where there is a track specifically for walkers. Joggers don’t have to slow their pace because there is a narrow track just for jogging as well.

Swim in the pool and relax in the sunshine in one of the many lounge chairs provided. Take a dance class or an aerobics, Yoga or Pilates class or practice your golf swing with the Golf Nets. You won’t have to complain that you gained weight because of a lack of things to do while at sea.
