Port Days or Sea Days?

[cruisetarp]

Do you ever cruise just for the cruise and stay on the ship the whole time or do you enjoy seeing the ports, even if you have been there several times before?

Lately we find ourselves staying on the ship more and more.

Mary Lou...our last couple of cruises we did stay onboard for a port or two, but that's because we had already been there before. I do like to have some port time and some good ship time.

The more sea days the better for us! There are some ports we rarely get off in anymore and the ship is definitely not crowded!

Definitely love the sea days. The 5 days from San Diego to Hawaii and 5 days back (eventhough we never saw the sun on any of those 10 days) was fabulous!

We could sail to nowhere and be thrilled.

Hit post and realized that I didn't actually answer the question.

Depends on the island. But we are finding that the more we return to the same places, the least amount of time we spend there.

Port days! The ship is all yours, To do whatever. We stay on the ship a lot in some ports been their and done that on some Islands, Unless the port we are at and haven't been there!

Happy Cruising;

We love them both - but prefer sea days, love just watching the ocean go by!!!

We usually get off of the ship in port. There is always the lure of shopping that will draw Cindy off the boat. The stores must give off a certain harmonic that she hears, but I don't. That being said, sea days are what attracts both of us to cruising.
