Pickleball At Sea Group Cruise is designed for Players of all skill levels. Whether you’re newer to the game or play regularly, sessions are structured and grouped by skill level so you can feel comfortable, improve your game, and enjoy your time on the courts. Shortly before departure, you’ll complete a brief survey to help us understand your experience level—this is reviewed by our Pickleball Pro and used alongside your play throughout the week to ensure you’re placed in the right sessions.

Not at all. Many of our Guests travel solo or without a set partner. Play is organized for you, with rotations and groupings that make it easy to meet others and get on the court right away. You’ll always have people to play with throughout the week.

Pickleball is built into the experience from start to finish—both onboard and ashore.

The fun begins the morning of the cruise with an Exclusive Local Pickleball Experience in Los Angeles before you ever step foot on the ship. Then, as Voyager of the Seas makes her way down the Pacific Coast, the courts come to you—with Open Play, lessons, and organized sessions designed exclusively for our Guests happening right onboard.

In Cabo San Lucas, you'll have something most cruisers never get: two full days in port. That means two opportunities to play at a top-tier facility that has hosted APP Tournaments—unhurried, unrushed, and with plenty of time left over to explore one of Mexico's most stunning destinations.

Back onboard for a sea day, the Pickleball continues before the ship calls on Ensenada—where another world-class ashore experience awaits.

That's Pickleball in multiple destinations across six nights—delivering an incredible variety of on-court experiences from the first serve to the final paddle tap.

In a recent Guest survey, nearly every Guest said there was far more Pickleball offered than they expected.

Absolutely. Many of our Guests travel with a spouse, friend, or family member who doesn’t play Pickleball—and they quickly become part of the experience in their own way.

This is much more than time on the courts. It’s a full group experience, with great food, social events, shared moments, and unforgettable destinations. Non-playing Guests are welcome to be part of that from the very beginning—and many connect with others in the group, even if they never pick up a paddle.

We also think about them during our Exclusive Local Pickleball Experiences Ashore. Transportation is included for them as well, and in many cases they can enjoy the destination in other ways, whether that means relaxing at a nearby beach, exploring a shopping area, or simply taking in the local experience while the group is on the courts.

So yes—bring them. Even if Pickleball isn’t their thing, there’s still so much here for them to enjoy.
