"I've traveled by plane, I've traveled by car. I've stayed in hotels, I've stayed in Airbnbs. I've been to the beach, I've visited cities... but what the heck do I need for a cruise!!!"
Don't worry. I've got your back.
I was once like you. I had never been on a cruise before, and then I realized that I would be trapped on a cruise ship which is basically a hotel/airport/dining-commons all in one! Oh, and my cabin would be approximately the size of a shoe-box...
After reading a lot of articles, going on a bunch of cruises, and trying different things, I compiled a precise (albeit lengthy) packing list of everything I need to pack for a cruise that I share with everyone I think might need it (yes, there is a printable version!).
And then (aka RIGHT NOW) I decided to put together a shopping list for those that don't already have a lot of the items.
If you're skeptical as to why you might want some of these, I explain all of them in these articles:

Carnival
Norwegian
Royal Caribbean
This list is helping me to pack for my train trip next week. I need to remember many of these items like chargers.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh towel clips are such a SAVIOR on cruise ships! We've brought them on 2 cruises now and I am SO happy with them.

ReplyDeleteI never thought there could be a cruise list, maybe because I never did it!
I have never been on a cruise before. The longest I've been on a boat was 28 hours, from England to Spain. The ship was nice and the room was quite large though so I enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteI have never been on a cruise before myself. It's the only thing we haven't done before!
ReplyDeleteDo you know a cruise is something I would LOVE to go on one day myself! This looks like a great shopping list to remember.
ReplyDeleteI have never been on a cruise! This needs to change! Thanks for sharing the shopping list, I will look here if needed :)
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a cruise season! I will make sure to pack these necessary items!
ReplyDeleteLOVE CRUISES!!!!!!!!!!! It's my favorite way to vacation.
ReplyDeleteThis makes it easier! Thanks for sharing your must haves. I'll keep this in mind when I go on a cruise.
ReplyDeleteI've never been on a cruise before so I wouldn't have thought about bringing a lot of these items. What are the magnets for?
ReplyDeleteI've never been on a cruise but I can imagine that you just need to be to organize in a teeny tiny little space. I'm betting it's a lot like what it's like to travel in an RV with your entire family. I'd love to know what the magnets are for.
ReplyDeleteAwesome shopping, great for not only cruise but also for any summer vacation.
ReplyDeleteI also want to have a cruise experience soon! The feel of the sea looks too different and amazing! Anyway, now I know what bring along when I'm in for a cruise trip!
ReplyDeleteThis are really great tips although I have never been on a cruise before but I will love to have an experience thanks for sharing it will really be of help to me.
