Principles to Make Travel Memorable!!

It’s no secret that each one of us is busy these days. So leave everything aside and take an unforgettable family vacation but the idea of planning it all might seem daunting. Don’t WORRY, we’ve curated these principles to ensure your trip is memorable both in the moment and for many years after:

Stretch your boundaries

Try something new every day to expand your horizons and allow yourself to be out of your comfort zone. Laze under the stars, try exotic cuisine, interact with strangers, basically do something that you haven’t done earlier. You’ll soon discover the side you never knew existed.

Interact. Listen. Embrace.

When you’re visiting a new place, it really becomes exciting to know their local culture. And for that interaction is a must. Ask question to dig deep, listen attentively, all these will let you explore and you can learn so much in the end.

Slooow it down!

It doesn’t matter how many countries you travel to, what matters is how deep your footprint was. Have you really traveled to a place if you raced through? The best way to experience a particular place is when you absorb it- you’ll see more, you’ll learn more, you’ll grow more.

Swing in hammocks often

Simple things bring the most amount of joy. It doesn’t always have to be the ‘must-see’ sights. It’s okay to not follow the bucket list some times. Go for an early morning walk by the beach, attend a yoga retreat, sit on the sidewalk of a café or swing in hammocks at sunsets.

Allow your five senses to soak up the world

Be present. Experience every moment and try to make the most of everything you see around. Get excited and live every moment with passion.

How to prepare for Hurricane Season

The onslaught of hurricanes seems unending. Despite being at the threshold of these late-summer storms, the cruise industry has been managing itself with aplomb. When we hear about the Bahamas, there is a range of things that can lure a traveller but before you set sail, you might want to check the weather forecast. So, in case you’re planning to sail during this time, it’s important to know what to expect.

It’s usually unlikely to find out how safe your cruise ship is during this time and by this time we mean most storms happen between mid-August and mid-September. In the Western Caribbean, they occur slightly later, between mid-August and early November.

If you’re still determined to sail, we have jotted down a few hurricane season tips for you:

Is the ship safe at all?

Unlike a fishing boat, a cruise ship can’t be avoiding hurricanes by just mooring in an inland canal or hiding among the mangroves. The only way left is to sail away until it reaches a safe harbour or it meets the calm waters. While cruise lines might end up altering itineraries or skip a place, but the top priority for all the cruise lines in all of this is safety.

Steal a fantastic deal:

If you’re hoping to get an amazing deal, the peak three months of hurricane season (August-October) is an ideal time to book a cruise. For the biggest savings, it is advised to wait until June to get the best last-minute offers from the cruise lines.

Pack sea-sickness remedies:

While a ship can leave behind the storm or change its course, you’re still likely to face turbulences which in turn might make you fall sick. Hence, you should carry some remedies along because it’s always better to be safe than sorry.

Be flexible with your expectations:

A change in the itinerary is the most common when a hurricane happens to hit. Expecting a change and being flexible is the key. Don’t make up your mind on visiting a certain point, you might be taken aback with the surprises that a new experience might hold for you. And you never know, you might discover a place that can become your most favourite. Cruising in a hurricane is surely a fun adventure so sit back and relax!

You need travel insurance:

It’s relatively inexpensive and will not only safeguard your investment but also provide peace of mind. Be sure to buy a policy that includes hurricane-related coverage. The aftermath of a hurricane can create havoc to more than just the cruise itself. It will even cover extra expenses incurred for your travel to and from the port.

Pack for the worst:

Choose to relax in the quiet bar while everyone’s busy rushing to find a dryer. Don’t go unprepared. It’s best to pack with the worst in mind when it comes to cruising in hurricane season. Pack a few extra essentials to ensure you don’t get caught up in all the hassles.

Now, with all these hurricane safety tips, we are sure to have you prepared for the adventure of cruising during hurricane season. To know more visit us.
