Many people are concerned about rough seas and winds during hurricane season.
Speaking as a Navy veteran who has sailed in 40 ft seas and 60 mile per hour winds, I’ve seen it first hand!
Here are my top tips for cruising during season
- Pick a larger cruise ship, like Icon of the Seas! Bigger ships handle the waves better!
- Get a cabin midship!
- Get a cabin on a lower deck!
- Limit alcohol consumption and greasy foods.
- Purchase Dramamine and Pepto before you sail.
- Don’t think about it!
Keep in mind that during hurricane season, kids are out of school.
Many parents take a vacation from being parents during cruises, so keep that in mind.
Yes, there are deals on cruises during hurricane season, but you will still have a good time if you prepare accordingly.
