Is there a basketball court on the Odyssey of the Seas?

This is just on the outside on the upper decks. One deck down is an indoor play room with basketball courts, bumper cars, laser tag and arcade games. All over looked by a real rocking sports bar with food and drink.



Yes, the Odyssey of the Seas features a full-sized, indoor basketball court located within the SeaPlex, which is the largest indoor active space at sea. In 2026, this court remains a centerpiece of the ship’s sports offerings, providing a climate-controlled environment that is shielded from the wind and sea spray. Because the SeaPlex is a multi-purpose venue, the basketball court often transforms throughout the day into an arena for bumper cars, pickleball, soccer, and even laser tag. For basketball enthusiasts, there are dedicated "Open Play" hours as well as organized 3-on-3 tournaments. Overlooking the court is the Playmakers Sports Bar & Arcade, allowing spectators to grab a drink and watch the games from the mezzanine. This indoor design is a major advantage for 2026 cruisers, as it ensures that play can continue regardless of the weather in the Caribbean or Mediterranean, making it a much more reliable option than the outdoor courts found on older Royal Caribbean ship classes.
