Creator's Key Takeaways

Sea days can absolutely make or break your cruise.

On Ruby Princess, it felt balanced. There were activities everywhere. Also, uh there were quiet corners.

It was a macro pod of dolphins swimming right alongside Ruby Princess.

Do not treat sea days as a filler day. They are experiences in themselves.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check the daily schedule early to plan around must-do events.
โœ“Build margins into your sea days to allow for unplanned moments.
โœ“Start your sea day slowly with a calm morning coffee or breakfast.
