Welcome aboard, Verlinda!
Once my daughter became a full-fledged teenager, she had even more fun on our
Disney Cruise Line vacations than ever before! Whoever says that Disney Cruises are just for little kids certainly hasn't been on one with a teen! She makes fast friends with a whole group of other teens in
Edge or
Vibe and then they're off to explore the ship and enjoy time together both in the Youth Clubs and elsewhere around the ship.
At
Castaway Cay, the counselors know how to put on a Port Adventure tailor-made for these teens!
The Wild Side Teen Adventure features all sorts of fun activities for the teens to enjoy together, but since it's not a full day adventure, us moms and dads can be happy to know that we will still get some family time in together that day, but our teens can have the time of their lives with new friends too! Don't fret about your son having to participate in every single part of this adventure. He's welcome to skip the bicycle part. Just let the counselors know prior to the start of the adventure, and they'll be happy to work that out so that he can still participate fully in the thrilling speedboat ride and the snorkeling. I just adore the
Snorkel Lagoon at Castaway Cay. The last time my son and I went snorkeling there, a huge sea turtle swam right under us. What a treat that was!
Your son is in for one magical cruise with the other teens onboard and the amazing youth counselors in Edge and Vibe, Verlinda! Please swing by again with any other questions as you continue planning this exciting cruise! We're very happy to help!
