Ocean Princess and its sister ship Pacific Princess and Royal Princess are of an ideal size for operating in the warm water regions of Tahiti and the Pacific Ocean islands. Ocean Princess now has an all-white hull (when owned by the now defunct Renaissance Cruises, it had a black hull with white superstructure). The all white hull makes the ship appear larger. It has a large square white funnel.
