Plan each day in advance, make the most of your time in port and indulge in local food and culture. Use your sea days to relax and rejuvenate; most ships have beautiful spas on board. If you’re planning on booking any spa treatments, do book in advance as the sea days are generally quite busy. The fear of missing out can sometimes consume us and we forget that it’s a holiday and having some time to enjoy the ships amenities can be overlooked.
