When packing for an Alaska cruise, it is important to consider the weather and the activities you will be doing. Here are some items to consider packing:
-
Clothing: Pack layers, including heavy sweaters, sweatshirts, or fleeces, a lightweight waterproof jacket or raincoat, waterproof footwear, water-resistant hiking boots, warm hats, and gloves.
-
Accessories: Bring a pair of sunglasses, a sunhat, a swimsuit, and workout clothes if you plan to use the fitness center.
-
Equipment: Consider bringing a waterproof camera, USB converter, portable charger, protective phone case, memory cards, extra batteries, a backpack, packaged snacks, collapsible hiking poles, and an umbrella or rain cover.
-
Toiletries: Pack toiletries and prescriptions in your carry-on.
-
Other: Bring your favorite accessories, including jewelry, an evening bag, hair accessories, and evening shoes. Dont forget to pack bug spray, as Alaska has a large mosquito population.
It is also important to note that if you forget to pack something, you can make purchases with U.S. dollars in the Alaska towns and cities you will visit.
