Packing for a cruise to the Bahamas?

Question

I am going on a cruise to Nassau and Freeport in late October and my husband and I are trying not to have to check our luggage at the airport, we just want to do carry ons, so we are wanting to pack as light as possible pretty much. Can someone who has been on a cruise to the bahamas before please help me?

Answer 1

For men: Slacks  and a polo-style shirt  are great attire for a  man at dinner  and the shirt can be worn the next day with shorts.  The only night men need a coat and tie is the formal evening, which varies between 1 and 2 nights depending on the length of your cruise.

For women: Don't  limit yourself to dresses and heels because you may regret it. Dinner wear is actually fairly simple. For daytime, bring a pair of light slacks  and a pair of black slacks  with blouses or tanks.   Formal night  is whatever you want it to be but slacks with a dressy blouse are fine

Here is a website with good information what to pack and tips.

Answer 2

Depends on what you will be doing? shorts and swim wear of course sun  dress maybe some evening wear if you plan on going to the dining room ,if you plan on just going to the buffets then you can wear  just about anything again- some cruise lines require dress slacks and shirt in some dining areas. check on line with your cruise line. Most ships have a laundry to do clothes with an ironing board or you can have your clothes done by the room steward for a fee. Depends on what cruise line.
