Let’s take a walk through Deck 9, the Lido deck on Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth. We’ll start by the midship pool, head into the Garden Lounge, walk through the Lido buffet, and finish out at the Lido pool at the back of the ship.

Good to Know
The Lido buffet doesn’t have a set entrance or exit, so it’s pretty much a big free for all. That can get a little challenging when it’s busy, so plan on grabbing your food and then going to find a spot.
The Garden Lounge is right by the Lido buffet, with an entrance on either side, so it’s a handy place to cool off from the pool and grab something to eat.
If you want the views, head to the Lido pool at the back of the ship. It’s a nice pool area with great views off the stern.
