As the sun rises, you have the entire day ahead of you on the splendid Bolette. How do you plan to spend it? Allow us to suggest some delightful ideas for your day.

Rise and Shine

Begin your day with a hearty breakfast at The Poolside Cafe. The tantalising aroma of delectable pastries and freshly brewed coffee guides the way. This al-fresco setting, with the expansive ocean as your backdrop, is the perfect place to greet the day.

Relax and Unwind

Since you're already near the pool, why not claim a comfortable lounger and let the gentle motion of the Bolette work its magic on you, as it glides through the ocean. You might want to lose yourself in a good book, take a refreshing dip, or luxuriate in the warm embrace of the jacuzzi.

Lunchtime Delights

When lunchtime arrives, make your way to The View, where you can enjoy a light meal from the buffet. With its breathtaking ocean vistas, this setting offers a relaxed and informal dining experience. Keep an eye out for dishes inspired by the destinations you're exploring – it's a culinary journey!

A Dabble in the Arts

After your midday reprieve, head to The Olsen Art Studio. This bright, airy space pays homage to the Olsen family's deep appreciation of the arts. It's not just a studio; it's a sanctuary of creativity. Partake in classes or activities led by various skilled instructors or peruse a treasure trove of art supplies.

Tea-Time Elegance

While afternoon tea is a daily delight in The View, indulge in a premium afternoon tea experience at The Observatory on days at sea for a modest cover charge. Savour exquisite treats served by attentive staff as the onboard pianist sets the mood with captivating melodies.

Shaken, Not Stirred

After a well-deserved post-afternoon tea siesta in your comfortable cabin (after all, you are on holiday), it's time to prepare for the evening. Commence your night with flair at The Ocean Bar's fantastic Martini Experience.

Dinner at Vasco

Make your way to Vasco and embark on a compelling journey through Indian cuisine. Goan chefs share their rich culinary heritage, offering everything from exquisite seafood to traditional spiced curries and perfectly-grilled meats, all freshly prepared to order.

Be Dazzled at the Neptune Lounge

As night falls, take your place in the Neptune Lounge, a two-tiered sanctuary where the show team will dazzle and delight you. Whether it's the magic of music and dancing, the comedic brilliance of a stand-up act, or the enchanting tricks of a magician, this is the perfect way to conclude your day at sea.

Our Shell sailed on last summer to the Fjords and tells us how she would spend a sea day on Bolette...

"I sailed on Bolette last year and loved my days at sea. I'd spend the morning relaxing by the pool with a book at the Poolside restaurant after breakfast. I'd also spend some time in the spa - its cosy proportions mean it never feels crowded - once we had it to ourselves! After some afternoon tea in The View, we'd relax in our cabin before getting ready for the evening meal. We loved Colours & Tastes, one of the speciality onboard restaurants. Can you tell the theme here? The food on Fred is really good, so my sea days always celebrated that"
