What to wear on a Med cruise

[NCTDN]

Help! Going in a month and I have no idea what clothes I need. It's with TUI.

Whatever you plan to take - halve it but take twice the money. It will probably still be warm to hot so light summery stuff. Enjoy! We always used to take too much and not wear most of it. Would you have a different outfit every day at home? So why would you on holiday...

During the day you need light , beach type or visiting villages type stuff, Cut offs, shorts or comfy dresses. Very comfy shoes. At night more going out stuff. I often take several tops to go with a single bottom. Lots of cheap costume jewellery. It can be a little cool so maybe a shawl or cardy. Take a very light waterproof or small umbrella. Have a fantastic time!

I've just done a 10 day cruise. We did a mix of sight seeing independently kne shore ex and sunbathing on the ship, eating and drinking and and a spa pass. Late September will be quite warm still but not hot hot. You will need

Sightseeing clothes
Day time relaxing clothes (around the ships)
Sunbathing things
Things to wear at night for dinner and drinks

Sight seeing clothes included denim shorts and vest tops/ sundress /culottes/skirt and top. Trusty Teva sandals.

Day time clothes relaxing clothes were jersey or denim shorts and t shirt or vest top. Jesey dress and Flip flops (havianas)

Sunbathing things were one bikini and one swimsuit and one cover up flip flops

I took day- night things that I could interchange but actually I just wore them at night twice each time - maxi dress/ culottes/ midi skirt and top/ midi dress. Saltwater sandals.

I don't get massively dressed up but always felt nice and saved the nicest dress for posh night. I was NCL and it pretty chilled. Going on Tui at half term for first time.

Basically the rule is half the clothes and twice the money

Other things that are useful is a small rucksack with a security zip agains your back (mine is a Kipling dupe and it's a if naff but cool secure, dries quick and doesn't make my back sweat). A sun visor was a first this year but loved it. We took magnetic hooks again a first but just search cruise on Amazon they come up. A lidded travel cup so you can take a coffee from the buffet to where ever without spilling it. A water bottle too.
