Been on two NCL cruises and still don't know what a Lido Deck is.

I've been on the Escape and GA but have never seen a reference to the Lido deck. While reading other sub forums (gasp) I see this referred to often, what deck is it? And why doesn't NCL refer to it as such? Yes I could Google it but I'd much rather ask the experts.

Lido means beach in Italian. Some cruisers like to refer to the pool deck as the lido deck. NCL does not use that name. Some cruisers do. Pool deck works for me.;)

On a cruise ship or ocean liner, the deck with outdoor pools and surrounding facilities are often designated the lido deck.

Holland America and Princess, as specific examples, actually name their decks. The deck that has the main pool is the "Lido Deck". There are other decks, like the Promenade Deck and the Aloha Deck. (Remember Love Boat?)

 

Sun and Star are the only two NCL ships I can think of that have named decks rather than numbered decks, but they have a "Pool Deck," not a Lido Deck.

Sun Deck is normally where you can get sun! Bon Boyage!

The Decks on the Sky are also named - but there is no Lido Deck :D

Ah, Lido means pool, that makes sense! I knew there was other named decks but couldn't remember them, thanks for the refresher!

So would the Promenade deck be the walking deck or like the NCL waterfront deck 8 on the GA?
