Carnival reveals new water park on Carnival Panorama approved by Shaq

Carnival’s Chief Fun Officer Shaquille O’Neal Reveals Plans for Shaq-tastic Choose Fun-Themed Water Park Aboard New Carnival Panorama

Carnival Cruises announced a new aqua park for the Carnival Panorama, which "water park expert" and Carnival Chief Fun Officer Shaquille O'Neal approves.

Shaq revealed he had just returned from personally testing out Carnival Panorama’s two massive water slides — the 455-foot-long Red Fun slide and the 300-foot-long Blue Fun slide — to make sure they’re the “funnest” they can be. 

Taking its name from Carnival’s brand slogan, the Choose Fun park takes center stage on Carnival Panorama’s top deck and will also include a 300-gallon PowerDrencher tipping bucket, part of a Shaq-tastic kiddie spray park, along with popular Carnival favorites like the SkyRide aerial attraction and a suspended ropes course, part of the SportSquare outdoor recreation area.

Currently under construction at the Fincantieri shipyard in Italy, Carnival Panorama is scheduled to set sail on its inaugural three-day voyage from Long Beach then launch year-round seven-day Mexican Riviera service Dec. 14, marking the first new Carnival ship from the West Coast in 20 years.

The week-long voyages feature day-long stops to top seaside resort destinations, including Mazatlan, Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta.
