In the last instalment of this series we took a brief look at a few popular cruising styles such as family, romance and singles cruises. Now we will delve into much less mainstream cruising styles that are sure to appeal to any character. Keep in mind there are many opportunities for physically disabled passengers to participate in most cruise activities. Be sure to ask the travel booking agent for a full listing of all disability-friendly programs and facilities. Enjoy, and take note of those you may wish to try!
Holiday Cruises are quite popular with all demographics, and are not always centered solely on winter holidays. There are also those inspired by international traditions or national holidays, such as the American Independence Day. Caribbean cruises may also incorporate the national holiday of the nation being visited as part of the cruise theme; for example, Cinqo de Mayo.
Gourmet Cruises, or Foodie Cruising is an increasingly popular style that appeals to many people. Celebrity chefs are invited to create menus with decadent cuisine indicative of popular ingredients used at the final destination of the cruise. Alternatively, a team of world class chefs will put together a series of lessons or lectures about a particular style of food. Gourmet cruising can be a great deal of fun and a chance to try foods one would not normally have access to.
Fitness Cruises have become just as popular as family cruises, in part because of all the incredible amenities now available on most ships. Aside from the usual gym and pool, many of the newer cruise ships have climbing walls, putting greens, running circuits and more. Fitness themed cruises may include an itinerary loaded with stops at world class golf courses in Florida or the Caribbean. Or if something slightly more musical is desired, there are dancing cruises. The ship doesn't actually dance, but everyone on the ship is able to take part in lessons, shows, competitions and tournaments in many different styles of dance.
Recreational Cruises are probably the most relaxed, even the most mainstream of all cruising styles. They are offer a chance for passengers to participate in a variety of activities including kayaking, ziplining, fishing, swimming and of course the very necessary spa visits. Many activities on ship are perfect for those seeking a little recreation with their relaxation, as they don't require a lot of set up or training. If you are not sure what you want, try a recreational cruise.
