Dawn built her reputation on strong service and a rotation of itineraries (Caribbean, Panama Canal) that kept returning guests interested. Her 2016 drydock expanded the buffet level and introduced Spice H2O, the adults-only aft deck that quickly became the ship's social hub. She's a dependable, warm ship that tends to convert first-time Norwegian cruisers into regular bookers. ## Dining | Restaurant | Type | Included | |------|------|------| | Aqua Main Restaurant (Main Dining Room) | Light Modern Continental | ✅ Yes | | Bimini Grill | Burgers, hot dogs | ✅ Yes | | Garden Café | Assorted Buffet, Food Stations, Kid-Sized Buffet | ✅ Yes | | O'Sheehans | Pub Food | ✅ Yes | | Venetian Main Restaurant (Main Dining Room) | Continental | ✅ Yes | | Atrium Cafe | Cafe | 💰 Surcharge | | Bamboo - A Taste of Asia | Pan Asian | 💰 Surcharge | | Cagney's Steakhouse | Steak, Seafood | 💰 Surcharge | | La Cucina Italian Restaurant | Casual Italian | 💰 Surcharge | | Le Bistro French Restaurant | French | 💰 Surcharge | | Los Lobos | Mexican | 💰 Surcharge | | Moderno | Churrascaria | 💰 Surcharge | | Sushi Bar | Japanese Sushi/Sake Bar | 💰 Surcharge | | Teppanyaki | Japanese Hibachi | 💰 Surcharge | ## Currently Sailing - **Cruise:** [Citrus & Salt – Cádiz, Gibraltar & Ibiza](https://cruisello.com/cruises/citrus-salt-cadiz-gibraltar-ibiza~NCL-DAWN-20261018-7.md) - **Departed:** 2026-10-18 - **Returns:** 2026-10-25 - **Nights:** 7 - **From:** 🇵🇹 Lisbon ## Upcoming Cruises 99 upcoming sailings on Norwegian Dawn.
