What are the rules for a nude cruise?
You can let it all hang out at sea and on the ship while at port. But Bare Necessities says there are still rules to go by. Among them:
- Except for a poolside buffet, you must wear your clothes in the dining rooms.
- While in port, you can’t show your assets to people on other ships, including hanging out on your balcony. And you must wear clothing when port authorities are on board inspecting the ship
- Leave your genital jewelry and fetish-ware at home.
- Don’t sit your bare bottom on surfaces — use a towel or a piece of clothing as a buffer.
