The cruise industry continues to expand each year â€" adding new ships and itineraries â€" giving us more variety and value than ever before. Presently, competition and an oversupply of cruise cabins at difâ€" ferent times of the year, is resulting in some of the lowest fares offered in recent memory. The industry is not standing still and has introduced new programs aimed at bringing in many new cusâ€" tomers. One of the most innovative ideas has been the offering of theme cruises. The first theme cruises offered were centered around sports themes. Golf and tennis cruises are offered on many cruise lines today and feature guest pros onâ€"board ship giving presentations, conducting clinics, and generally mixing with the guests. Additional equipment and faciliâ€" ties are provided including driving nets, putting greens, and computerâ€" ized simulations for golf. To comâ€" plement the onâ€"board activity, the cruise lines have integrated optional shore excursions to many of the finest clubs at your portsâ€"ofâ€"call. Golfing is not inexpensive on these programs, but the chance to play some of the most famous courses in the world â€" at some of the best private clubs â€" eases the pain of the costs. The initial success of sports cruises encouraged the cruise lines From hockey to media The Mighty Ducks from Walt Disney Studios is bound to keep the whole family laughing.
