These Adult-Only Disney Cruise Line Activities Are Practically Perfect in Every Way

When you think of Disney Cruise Line, you're probably stirring up images of Mickey and his friends walking around the ship greeting guests, kids ooh-ing and ahh-ing around every corner, and endless amounts of food! While all of that is definitely true (and a lot of fun), there's tons of magic in store for adults who are traveling with their kids and maybe want a little break, or adults who are cruising sans little ones.

On any Disney Cruise Line ship, those over 18 can find spaces just for them to relax and soak in the magical atmosphere. From highly themed nightclubs to an ultrarelaxing spa and adults-only beaches on Disney's private island, grown-ups are in for a vacation they won't soon forget. Leave the kids at the Oceaneer's Club, and check out all of the fun that awaits the young at heart when sailing on Disney Cruise Line.
