Creator's Key Takeaways

I had a lot of confusion about this on my first cruise so let's clear up some things about cruise ships and Beach tows

I made the rookie mistake of thinking I needed my own towels and I lugged four oversized heavy beach towels around

you can leave those big bulky beach towels at home why because Cruise Lines they've got you covered quite literally

failure to return them can result in an unwelcome surprise on your stateroom bill which is usually around 25 bucks a pop

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't bring your own beach towels on a cruise; cruise lines provide them.
Return cruise line towels promptly to avoid a charge on your stateroom bill.
Familiarize yourself with the specific towel policies of your cruise line.
