I'm going on a cruise and wondering if there is a website with weather updates for cruise weather?

Question

My understanding is that near the ocean, the temperature is cooler. I'm not looking for weather updates for land locations.

Answer 1

What need is maritime weather forecasts.  These will be readily available at your ports of departure and arrival.  Try browsing these NOAA sites:
