all4hockey54r Posted June 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Are the waterslides and pools open on a Northern Europe cruise in the beginning of July? Do people utilize them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted June 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 26, 2017 They will be open. Whether people will use them depends on individual circumstances. The weather can vary a lot in this area. We were in the Baltics last August on the Star and the pool was quite busy. Our son used it a lot, but it was far too cold for me. In early July it is likely to be slightly cooler, but you could have particularly good weather. It was very warm in a lot of Northern Europe a week or so ago, for example.

Velvetwater Posted June 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2017 We did the Baltics in early August back in 2013 on Carnival Many Europeans of all ages were in the pool and using the small watersldie happily...I include myself in that. Many US folk shied away from this until a few started to give it a go as we left Warnemunde. They experienced that 'first chill' when you get in but after that it is wonderful. Whatever you do, do not get in after a hot tub! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stp108 Posted June 27, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 27, 2017 We are going in September. I don't imagine I will be on a waterslide as I'm cold natured anyway. But I wondered if people would be using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldogatl Posted June 27, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Was on the Star last year for the Baltic cruise (going on her again in July for the Adriatic). It was REALLY hot. Pools were in use as were the slides and the kids area. I'm told we had exceptional weather for the trip. But, it was really hot. 90's etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctnurse Posted June 27, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 27, 2017 We did the Baltic in July 2015. My son was in the pools and on the waterslide. I, on the other hand, wore gloves and a scarf because I was cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2gonow Posted June 27, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 27, 2017 We were on the Star July 2016 in the Baltics. Weather was hot. Full tour days but pool area was busy when back on ship. Seas were like a bath....so weird for days not even a ripple on the water. Especially nearing Talinn and St.Petersburg. I did not use my sweater once during the trip. I am usually hot though. Everyone was wearing shorts though. I really enjoyed this cruise more than I thought. The ports are amazing, I didn't think I could top my Med cruise, but the Baltics held there own for sure. Happy planning Kerri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
