Going on a party cruise in playa del carmen can be great. You get to travel to new locations with a built-in place to stay. You get to party with thousands of new friends who are all trying to have a great time. It’s one big party on the water. We are going to give you some tips that will help you be prepared to have the best time possible on your cruise.
Bring Power Strip (Non-Surge Protection)
If you’ve never been on a cruise ship, then one thing you should be aware of is the lack of power outlets. You may have brought video game consoles and laptops on top of your actual cell phones. The extra outlets may also not be in the location you want them to be, so these extra power outlets will surely come in handy. Make sure it is an approved power strip and does not have surge protection because cruise lines typically ban power strips with surge protection,
Bring a sweater or jacket
This is especially important. It is no fun freezing your butt off. You will need to make sure you are prepared for the ocean winds. The temperature out in the sea may feel totally different from the one that the weatherman forecasts. Those ocean gusts make a giant difference along with being out on the water. Bring a jack or at least bring a windbreaker. Just bring something, you want to be able to enjoy your time on the deck while you are out at sea.
Bring a bottle of wine
People spend an arm and a leg on drinks when they go on cruises. Do not get stuck doing that if you have a chance to bring your own. Cruise ships typically allow for one bottle per guest. Make the most of it. If you are a couple, bring two bottles and you have plenty of wine to split with each other and probably saved 60 dollars or more.
Bring a motion sickness remedy
If you have experience motion sickness or know that you are prone to motion sickness, then this tip is probably an obvious one for you. That’s why this tip is especially geared towards people who do not know that they are prone to motion sickness. This is the place where you will find out and be tested. Getting severe motion sickness is an easy way to spoil your trip. You do not want to get caught without treatment for this. You might have to overpay for it once you’ve boarded the ship and started your cruise. Be sure to bring your treatment of choice, people typically bring Dramamine or ginger pills with them.
Bring ear plugs
One of the downsides to being on a cruise ship is the fact that you will be in a very confined space. Your neighbor’s rooms will be too close for comfort sometimes and you may hear noises that you would rather not hear. You may want to consider bringing earplugs in case things get too crazy. Keep in mind that everyone is there to have fun and fun often comes with a lot of noise.
Get cruise insurance
You may not think that you need this, but it really is no fun to be caught without some type of insurance for your cruise. Anything can and will happen on a cruise and you need to be prepared for the unexpected. Cruise insurance can give you that peace of mind that will allow you to relax and enjoy your trip. Be sure that your cruise insurance includes coverage for illness cancellation.
Have fun and be sure to take plenty of pictures.
