Cruising: What to Bring?

I've seen so many people asking what they have to bring when they're on a cruise, I am definitely not a pro at cruising, but I decided to put together a list just for future reference because like many others I love cruises, I think it's the best way to see a lot of places in a short amount of time.

• Itinerary/Tour Plans for Port
• Passport/Orders/Important Documents & Extra Copies (I put it in a different place from the originals)
• Hand Sanitizer (Stations are all over the ship but when you're off the ship it's great to have)
• Travel Clock
• Travel Books (I love Rick Steve's books)
• Rain Coat/ Umbrella/Ponchos (Weather is so unpredictable)
• Sun Hat
• Swim Suit
• Sunglasses
• Camera/Batteries/SD Card
• Phone /Chargers (Free WiFi at port, it's a thing)
• Tide Pen (For the little stains)
• Mini bags Powder Detergent (in case you want to do some laundry for those longer cruises)
• Electronics & Chargers/Books to read (For those days at sea, you need something to keep yourself occupied)
• Power Strips (If you have lots of electronics this would be great for you)
• Refillable Water bottle (When you're at port, fill up your bottle with ice and you'll have water off the ship)
• Travel Tissues 
• Ziplock Bags/ Plastic forks and paper napkins too (If you wanna take some food from the Buffet off ship)
• Sunscreen
• Aloe Vera / Lotion
• Dry Snacks (For when you're at port and need a boost)
• Medication: (Nausea, Ibuprofen, Pepto, Eye Drops, Chapstick  etc.)
• Toiletries: 
• Tooth brush & Paste
• Hair/ Body Wash (They provide it on the ship but it dries your skin out)
• Comfortable shoes
• Socks
• Extra Underwear (You can never have too much)
• Dressy Clothing/Shoes, for Formal night (It's always nice to dress up)
• Females:
• Make-up Bag
• Feminine Products (You never know!)
• Little Purse

• Other Interesting Suggestions:
• Travel Mug
• Post It Notes / Dry Erase Marker /Painters Tape (To leave family members notes)
• Over the door Shoe holder
• Outlet covers (For those with little ones)
• Lanyard (To carry your cruise card)
• Toilet Seat Covers
• Mini First-Aid Kit

*These are just some ideas, it isn't necessary to pack everything on this list. Make sure to leave room for some souvenirs too.
