We’ve put together a short list of tips to help you plan your trip and create that great Caribbean cruise experience.
When preparing for a Caribbean cruise, most people are only thinking about warm weather and sunny beaches. You’ll need to think about more than just that while you’re packing. Although there is plenty of sunshine and beach to enjoy, there are many other activities to enjoy on your trip. Pack some shorts, some muscle shirts, and a few dresses. However also remember to bring a long a light jacket and at least one warmer outfit.
The temperature can change quickly on your vacation. These few ideas can insure a more prepared trip. It’s also good to bring essentials such as sunscreen and a good pair of shades. Then of course don’t forget pastimes such as a magazine, binoculars and snack food also.
It’s good to keep in mind that health care is at a premium. Certainly this holds true of you’re at sea for long periods of time. Always make sure to bring extra medication with you just in case. Also make sure that you’ve confirmed that any sea sickness drug will not effect your medications.
Remember to pace yourself while on vacation, it’s not a race, relax and don’t tax your system. You want to make sure to enjoy the trip and stay healthy as well. Write a list of those medical needs you have but only bring what’s necessary. You don’t want to over pack either.
It’s important to take into consideration the amount of cash you want to carry with you. Remember that there will be ATMs on the ship and on shore. You want to deter the thieves and pickpockets that exist in any vacation climate. A good rule of thumb is to make sure you have enough cash for shopping and for tipping the staff. If you need more then this is when you can use the ATM machine to acquire more money. The withdrawl fee charged by the machines is significantly less than having your spending money stolen from you.
It is a good idea to have a trusted friend or neighbor watch you home for you while you are on vacation. This should help you feel more at ease and enjoy yourself. It’s good to use a friend whom you trust. You should continue any home services as if you were still at home. Also, let people know how to reach you if they need to.
