Packing Must-Haves: What To Bring On A Cruise

The key to packing for a cruise is bringing a variety of comfortable, casual clothes you can mix and match and a few items that you can dress up more at night. Shorts or even a bathing suit and cover-up will do during the day, but on most ships you’ll need to put on long pants for dinner. If you’re a gym rat, you’ll want to bring workout clothes. If you’re a nature lover, don’t forget your binoculars and/or a camera with a good lens. Readers will want to bring books or an e-reader (don’t count on the ship’s library having much of a selectiosn). Whether going tropical, arctic or somewhere in between, you won’t want to leave home without these other items:

• A Lightweight Rain Jacket and/or Umbrella
• Shampoo, Conditioner & Soap
• A Power Strip
• A Spare Pair Of Glasses/Contacts
• Gallon-Size Sealable Plastic Bags
• Dramamine, Acupunture Wristbands, Ginger Tablets and/or Meclizine
• Hangers
• Sun & Bug Protection
• Comfortable Shoes
