Creator's Key Takeaways
after living on a cruise ship for 536 days here are my port rankings
last on the list is nasau if you end up here sushi around the corner is lovely but the port is a whole pretty underwhelming kind of scary
in second place we have Coco K and I'm going to give her extra points for the free food as a crew member coming here it's definitely most convenient since the island is small
first place might surprise you cuz it's a Home Port but when you live on a ship sometimes you just crave normal sea I.E biking cafes grocery shopping so personally I felt the happiest in Fort Lauderdale
