my wife and I never been on either, but we are hoping to find a nude cruise, not a swinger one, so we haven't booked one yet either.

We have done the couples cruises in 2013 from Port Canaveral, Tampa and Istanbul. Nudity is allowed around the pool and on a specified sun deck. Unlike a strictly "nude cruise" the crowd runs the range from folks who never take off their clothes in public to full swap swingers. The thing is, everyone gets along just fine. If you're not "in the lifestyle", just stay out of the party rooms. In other words, if you want a nude cruise and the schedule works for you, don't worry about the "lifestyle" element. On the other hand, you and your significant other may just find a new spark...seen that happen more than once. The company that charters these ships is very vigilant about keeping any public "activity" confined to the appointed areas, and if you don't want to go there, just don't go there. On the other hand, if you're a traditional, tree-hugging, back to nature AANR nudist, you may not enjoy the crowd of folks truly having a good time without giving a hoot what you think is "appropriate". Or, you might take a peek in the play room with your sweetie...no one will tell the folks back at the club.

The only reason we havn't been on a lifestyle cruise is the fear that the average age will be thirty! We are mid fifties. We just might get it in gear and go!

We have been on recent Carnival Freedom and New Amsterdam Bare Necessities cruises and had a great time. We are booked on the May Couples Cruise on Celebrity out of Los Angeles to Mexican Riviera. We are looking forward to it and we'll let you know how our couples cruise goes.

Sorry so long to report, but last November's Royal Caribbean Swingers cruise was great for us non-swinging nudists. Fun and friendly bunch of people, not unlike our AANR resort visits. Nobody pushy and it was fun people watching. Not much opportunity to be nude save traveling to/from cabin and the pools. Saw a little extracurricular activity that sounds like the descriptions I've read about Hedo. We did visit the playrooms but only played as a couple alone. Quite exhilarating experience. Recommend it for open minded nudists who can separate the two worlds. Avoid the playrooms and no big deal at all. Fun cruise.

Bare Necessities' cruises are different. You have the freedom to go about the entire boat nude with only 3 exceptions:

1) on the ship while the ship is in port
2) in the main dining room or specialty dining rooms where you are served by a waiter. Casual attire is perfectly fine.
3) at the Captain's reception.

Otherwise, you have the freedom to walk out of your cabin wearing nothin' but a smile... that's us!

Dear BN staff:

I sure like the BN nude concept, unfortunately the only affordable BN cruise is the annual February big nude boat which does not fit our work schedules. The New Years, Summer and Other Small Boat Cruises to Europe, Fiji, Etc are way to expensive for the average wannabe nude cruiser.

It would be nice to see an affordable, large ship winter break or summer Caribbean Offering, even if it were a 4 or 5 day cruise out of Miami/FLL.

The spring and fall couples cruises, while not pure nudist ideal, to go halfway at a convenient time and affordable price point.

we are curious but hesitant on both nude and or singers cruises. We are wondering about nude overload on the nude cruise and sex overload on the swingers cruise although we love to sunbather in the nude and love to cruise. Being from the UK, we may try one of the Mediterranean offerings of either type for starters to get over our inhibitions. Both sound fun.

If you're ugly or old you won't have tons of trouble on the swingers cruise if you can withstand overt sexual behaviour. But because we are young and my wife is smokin hot we regretted going on the couples cruise. But not that being hit on isn't bad (one drunk fool was especially annoying and not discreet with a square haircut looked like Beavis--yes my wife will now forever call most swingers perverts because of him), and the drag queen they had for entertainment had a couple (swapped) do a real live 69 on stage during bingo. They had their tongue/mouth on each others genitals for a split second. Then lots of grabbing, women sun screening a [censored] in front of everyone. On excursion whipped cream liking nipples and a [censored]. One woman have her vulva massaged at the dance club right in the middle of the main floor.

So couples cruise is false advertisement. They actually do allow and encourage overt sexual behaviour. I wouldn't recommend them in the slightest. We will be going on bare necessities cruises only from now on.

Lol how else would one review the cruise? This cruise charter makes the lifestyle look like a true perversion, which in all likelihood is, but that's not the discussion at hand. I should post the email thread I had with Bob Hannagan. He or a staff cover up and condone, and finally contradict. He asked a nudist (me) regarding the fairness of an uncovered boob and an uncovered mans chest? But definitely don't be a fool and go on this as a fun nudist adventure. For one there's poor nude participation. Nude starvation if anything (no nude overload, that's for sure). Maybe 1/4 to 1/3rd if you're lucky. Plus, 1/3 to a half of the swingers we ran in to thought it funny to "corrupt us", as if they're knowingly corrupted? Well they can be their own judge I guess. I've no interest in that role.

Bottom line: If you have no lifestyle interest and are attractive don't go on this couples cruise charter. But beware: all are welcome to the swinger's lifestyle, but you'll only be actively sought out if you're attractive. If you are a classy lifestyle don't go to any couples cruise sponsored entertainer's events. They claim to have exemption from the code of conduct and work with Bob to cover up public sex acts that are supposedly "forbidden" and grounds for being kicked off in the name of getting events "going".

Please don't take offense but I've read this post about six times and I still have no idea what it means. I was hoping the "Bottom Line" would clear up the first paragraph for me but, alas, no luck.

Translation: "I am someone who is a bit full of myself, but sadly didn't do very well in grammar or creative writing classes. I went on a advertised "lifestyle" cruise and was shocked that there was some overt sexual activity."
