Do i really need a bathing suit for a cruise?

Question

i recently found out i am going on a cruise on friday but i don't have a bathing suit i can take. i went out to look for one today but i could barely find any. is shirts and shorts okay?

Answer 1

Well a bathing suit is necessary if your gonna be on a cruise you cant go commando. But yah shorts are fine.  

Answer 2

If you intend to go it the pool, or the hot tub, or any of the many beachy, watery, wonderful shore excursions, you will need a bathing suit.  You have three days left.  Look for one full time or order online and order it overnight delivery.  Cruises are fantastic and you don't want to miss out.  

Answer 3

if you want tan lines you can wear that, but i say get a bathing suit

Answer 4

Well most people are more comfortable wearing a bathing suit getting soaking wet at the pool and the beach, but if you're fine just wearing a tshirt and shorts there is absolutely nothing wrong with that if it's comfortable for you.  

Hope this helps!

Answer 5

its not mandatory to have a swimsuit, but its nice to have one. Especially, if you are planning to swim or go in the hot tub.

have fun~

Answer 6

Bringing along a swimsuit isn't mandatory, but if you don't take one along, you'll most likely regret it. You certainly don't want to buy one in the on board store. They over charge for things like that. Wal-Mart would be a good recommendation.

Bon Voyage!!

Answer 7

I would get a suit if I were you. There are pools and water slides and all kinds of fun activities that are on cruise ships. You will be uncomfortable in a shirt and shorts.
