Here at Safe Cruise Parking, your trusted Miami cruise parking service, we’re dedicated to making sure you never worry about your car while you’re away on your cruise. Today we’re here to debunk some popular myths about cruises so that you can have the time of your life instead of worrying. Don’t let misconceptions scare you away from taking a cruise; the things standing in your way may just be hearsay! Here are the top common falsehoods associated with cruises.

1. “I’ll feel trapped.” Actually, cruise ships vary in size with the largest being the length of 2 or 3 football fields. If you’re claustrophobic, consider one of the larger cruise ships.

2. “I won’t have fun.” Again, not true! Cruise lines actually work very hard to keep you entertained while on board. In most ships, you’ll find lectures, spas, movies, gyms, pools, and activities for children. At night, options include live music, stand-up comedy, singing contests, and much more! Research your cruise lines because different companies are geared toward different tastes.

3. “I’ll get seasick.” Most cruise ships are outfitted with stabilizers so that you never feel the ship moving. If you’re still concerned, make sure your cabin is booked in the middle of the ship – at its natural balance point.

4. “It will cost too much.” The extras are what add up – from drinking to gambling, a bargain can quickly turn into an expensive vacation. Our advice? Book in the off-season in the Caribbean, Europe, and Alaska, where fares routinely dip below $100 per person a day, leaving room in your budget for extras.
