Cruise outfits

On a cruise you dress for three settings in one day: the pool deck, the excursion and the dinner. These outfits are chosen to combine with each other, so a small suitcase covers all three.

How to get it right

  • Most cruise lines have one or two formal nights: pack a dress or an elegant set for them.
  • The deck is windy. A light jacket or a cardigan is used more than you expect.
  • For excursions, comfortable closed shoes and a bag that closes well.
  • Choose a color palette and keep to it: everything combines and you pack half as much.

Frequent questions

What is the dress code for formal night?

A cocktail or long dress, or a dressy set with elegant shoes. Swimwear, shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the main dining room.

What do I wear during the day on board?

Light dresses, shorts and shirts over the swimsuit. Most restaurants ask for a cover-up and footwear even at lunch.
