Creator's Key Takeaways

Yes, Alaska is a great place for this because well, you are always very close to land.

Norway would probably also be a a good choice as well because there's never reason for the ship to get that far from land.

Do look at Norwegian and their solo program. That might be a great compromise if you can't simply, you know, engineer the cruise on the same ship with friends.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Attend the head chef's talk to learn about food storage and provisioning on long cruises.
โœ“For anxiety about being at sea, choose an Alaska cruise where you are almost always in view of land.
โœ“Check inbound flight schedules at Flight Radar or FlightAware to plan your Maho Beach visit around aircraft landings.
โœ“If you want a blend of solo and social cruising, consider Norwegian's solo program or engineer a cruise on the same ship as friends.
โœ“For a two-day cruise, Margaritaville Paradise is a great starter cruise, but book a Royal Caribbean Freedom or Voyager class ship for a less booze-focused experience.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Anxiety about being in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight. โ€” Choose an Alaska cruise where you are almost always in view of land.
Worry about motion on a two-day cruise. โ€” Margaritaville Paradise crosses the Florida Strait and parks off Freeport, where it's usually calm.
Fear that two-day cruises are full of loud people drinking (booze cruises). โ€” Margaritaville tries to be a booze cruise, but you don't have to drink; enjoy the food and shows.
