StarDream Cruises has introduced pickleball at sea – one of the fastest-growing sports in Asia and worldwide – aboard Genting Dream and Star Navigator.
Basketball courts were converted into two full pickleball courts on Genting Dream and one on Star Navigator, giving travellers a new way to serve, smash and score while cruising.
On Genting Dream, pickleball play debuted on September 21, 2025, on two- and three-night itineraries between Singapore, Melaka, Penang and Phuket. A special five-night cruise to South and North Bali on November 30, 2025, will also feature the sport.
Star Navigator will debut pickleball from September 26, 2025, offering longer itineraries across Asia. From Keelung, she will sail roundtrip voyages to Japan’s Okinawa and Kyushu, as well as Jeju and Busan in South Korea.
Between November 16, 2025, and January 30, 2026, Star Navigator will homeport in Kaohsiung with two- and five-night cruises to Okinawa, the Philippines (Laoag, Coron, Boracay, Puerto Princesa) and Vietnam (Halong Bay, Danang).
