General Advice

The best advice I’ve gotten, practiced, and given over many cruises:

🛳️ The Cruise Is What You Make of It

Cruise the way you want to cruise and do what feels right for you - that’s really the one single best advice for any cruiser.
You can have a relaxing cruise, a party cruise, a sexy cruise. You can wake up early to catch the sunrise, or party and fuck until sunrise. And you can switch things up whenever you want. It’s all up to you!

🫰 Open Mind, Open Heart

Everyone is on vacation and everyone wants to have a great time, and the best way to support that is to have an open mind and open heart towards others.
A lot of us have been forced to be defensive and evasive in our daily lives for too long, so putting our shields down can be very difficult and uncomfortable, but it is so liberating and freeing when we can do that. This is a place where we can do that safely - as long as we support each other in doing so.

🚶🏻‍♂️ Pace Yourself

At any one time there can easily be 10 or more things going on. This is so that there’s something for everyone, not for one person to do everything, even though it’s tempting and FOMO can creep in.
Listen to your body and don’t be afraid to take little breaks or naps in between all the fun - it’ll help keep your energy up for the entire cruise and prevent you from burning out midway through.

🌊 Go with the Flow

Leave room for a bit of spontaneity while sailing as some of the best experiences on the cruise can be the most unexpected and happen at a moment’s notice. A drink with someone you’ve just met, a dance with a boy that catches your eye on the dance floor, a meal that could turn a stranger into a lifelong friend.

🙌 Wash Your Hands, Wash Your Hand

Getting sick on vacation sucks!
