    Do the shore excursions offered!!! Try pirates and Dungeons tour, or the Glass bottom boat tour..both are sooo fun!

    Cruises are great, but dont over pack--cabins are extremely small and there isnt a lot of room for extra clothes and stuff. If its a day at sea and you want a prime spot by the pool, get there early and leave towels, books, tshirts, hats whatever to guard your spot until you actually want to sit there. Have a Goombay Smash and enjoy!

    1. if you think you may get sea sick go to the pursers desk and ask for medicine. it is free and i swear works better than anything else you can buy.

    2. royal caribbean offers many excursion packages, but they are overpriced. i recommend doing them on your own and saving yourself some money, especially at key west where you can walk everywhere. (PS: the butterfly conservatory is AMAZING).

    3. pack multiple bathing suits so you never have to put on a wet one.

    4. go to the captains welcome aboard party - there are free drinks. (the waiters have a few types of premade drinks, but if you go directly to the bar and order or tip your waiter with cash then you can order whatever drink you want).
