Oasis of the Seas

A Bar That Elevates Between 3 Decks!

Now this is a cool, and ingenious, feature!

Imagine a bar that ascends and descends three decks!  Enter at the ground and rise to see the whole view of the Central Park while relaxing with your drink. 

Wondering if you can actually enter the bar from two different decks?  Yes!  The Rising Tide Bar connects the Royal Promenade to the Central Park.  Just hop on, have a drink, and get off on either floor!  Such a cool idea.

At the Royal Promenade level, the bar is replaced by a fountain.  That is to say, that when the Rising Tide Bar elevates toward the Central Park, a fountain will turn on beneath it! 

I'm sure this has been done before, somewhere.  But not on a cruise ship.  A fun little feature.

A Modern Rendering of the Rising Tide Bar

I finally found a much better image of the Rising Tide Bar. 

Royal Caribbean is not posting this image on their website anymore.  So, perhaps, it is outdated.  However, I think it is an outstanding rendering and deserves to be here.

This shot is not taken from the main level of the Royal Promenade.  It is taken from the mezzanine level.  So, the bar is rising between the 2nd and 3rd levels of its ascent.

Below the Rising Tide Bar (not visible) will be the water fountain.

Above, lined with 2 rows of lights, is the deck for the Central Park Neighborhood.   This opening is under a Crystal Canopy.
