DON’T BRING YOUR CAMO CLOTHING CRUISING!!!

 

 

Wearing Camo clothing seems to be a style these days in the U.S…Although you may want to think twice before bringing it on a cruise, Why?? Well you can wear it on the cruise ship, but in many Caribbean as well as Mexican ports it is frowned upon and even illegal in some.   A few that are included in this are Antigua, Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Grenadines, Trinidad, Tobago and all Mexican ports.   These ports only allow their own military or law enforcement to wear Camo and do not want civilians and tourists confused with their military.  So if you insist on packing your favorite camo shorts, plan on only wearing them on the ship, otherwise you risk being sent back onboard to change or even possibly being arrested in some ports.  So with this in mind, you may just want to reconsider and leave the Camo at home.

She is currently at a shipyard in Cadiz, Spain where all the work is taking place before repositioning to Miami in June to sail 3 and 4 night itineraries to the Bahamas with stops in Nassau and Coco Cay which is Royal Caribbean private island.
