I just got back from the sunshine and the serenity pool and main pool were both fresh water now. Has carnival done this on all ships or just the one.

 

I hope it's on all of them amazing

 

No.

I'm suprised by this. Jh has said in the past they drain and clean the pools each night and refill while out at sea because of certain laws.. So wouldn't they all have to be salt water

Is this true??? Could it be???

Now I don't care if the pools are saltwater, however, I would LOVE for them to be WARM! It is always to darn cold to get into the pool! (unless you are under 16, kids seem to have that ability to swim in the artic waters!)

My hope is, if they are fresh, maybe they will be warm, but not too chemically treated...

Either way, I will find out in a week!!!:D:D:D

Hi,

 

Yes, my son loved the freshwater pool on the sunshine- the ity bitty teeny weeny freshwater pool...

 

But, we are wondering about the Dream...

 

Fresh or Salt?

 

What about the water slides? I would not like to have salt water sprayed in my eyes...

On the Dream: The pools are saltwater, the waterslides use fresh water. Some ships still use saltwater for their waterslide: the ships that don't have Waterworks (Conquest class, Triumph class, Elation, Paradise). As far as I know, all ships except Sunshine have saltwater for the pool.

Why would the Sunshine be freshwater' date=' but the rest, salt?

Anyone?

Seems odd.....[/quote]

 

Because the Sunshine was recently refurbished and the rest of the fleet is still the way it was when it was built.

Actually seems odd that the Sunshine has non sea water when all of the rest don’t.

Are the hot tubs fresh water also?

Sea water pools are refilled nightly. I wonder how often the Sunshine’s pools get refilled with fresh water.

 

Yes hit tubs and slides fresh water
