How long do you feel like your still on the boat after a cruise?

Question

I just got back from a royale caribbean cruise last night. I feel like im still rocking on the boat. it feels weird to like walk or sit or do anything. How long will this last??

Answer 1

I just got back from a 2 week cruise and that was a week ago, and I still feel like I have sea legs.

Answer 2

I've been on 11 ships and I feel that way for a few hours or a day.

Hope it helps!

Answer 3

about a day or so for me.

Answer 4

That feeling can last up to a few days.  I went on a royal caribbean cruise a few years ago and I was still feeling like I was swaying a few days later.  (or could that have been from all the pina coladas's I had?  hmmmmmmmmmm.)Hope you had a good time!

Answer 5

For me it lasted a week. What ended it was taking over the counter bonine every 6 hours. I did that and it went away within a few days.

Answer 6

Only for a few hours ... just like when you are on skates for a long time .... really cool and weird

Answer 7

It can take several days.  It really depends on how rocky the boat was too.  Hang in there, depending on how sensitive you are, it will take days, but eventually will go away!

Answer 8

Based on all these other answers I must be the exception, but I had the so called "sea legs" sensation for only about an hour after getting off the ship. I will say that I only had one, out of my last 5 cruises, that had "choppy" seas so the boats really didn't rock.

Answer 9

That usually only lasts for a day or so.  Not too long.

Answer 10

so you still have your sea legs :} by tonight you should be absolutely fine,

Answer 11

mine doesn't usually hit me as soon as I step off, but I usually stay a night post cruise in the port of disembarkation and as soon as I have that first drink BAM! It hits me and lasts the night.

Answer 12

for me it was only about a day

Answer 13

Yes, I ALWAYS feel like that. It usually lasts about 2-3 days. Don't worry, it will go away.

Answer 14

Mine lasted about a day. But for several nights after that, i still felt as though i was rocking! This is normal. How long were you on the cruise for?

If the problem  persists for more than a week, you should perhaps contact your doctor.

But otherwise, just stick it out! I'm pretty sure it will pass! :)
