To assure our partnership with the cruise lines remains intact, passengers are to observe the following common-sense guidelines while aboard our Bare cruises:

Clothing is required upon arrival into port and when the ship is docked. This includes verandahs.

Clothing is required in the dining rooms except the Yacht Club and Azure Cafe. Casual attire is fine. Breasts, bottoms, and genitalia must be covered by clothing.

Lingerie, fetish-wear, and excessive genital jewelry are not appropriate at any time.

Bathrobes are only appropriate when visiting the spa or lounging outside on a chilly evening.

Always sit on a towel or some article of clothing when bare bottomed or in a thong or G-string. This is standard nudist etiquette and is to be observed everywhere including your stateroom, on the pool deck, in the buffet area, and while on excursions.

Fresh beach towels will be in your stateroom each day and smaller towels will be placed throughout the ship outside of common areas if you arrive without one.

Fondling or inappropriate touching of personal body parts or those of someone else, overt sexual activity or any form of solicitation for sexual acts is strictly prohibited.

Displaying yourself nude in front of other ships in port (including on your verandah) or while port authorities are on board the vessel for clearance is strictly prohibited.

Dangerous or rude behavior will not be tolerated at any time. 

Passengers must comply with US federal law regarding the possession or use of illegal substances.

Bare Necessities also complies with the cruise line’s regulations, including the right to dismiss persons from the cruise for abusing alcohol and/or drugs, not obeying all safety rules including our decorum and attire, as well as not complying with the laws of the country we are visiting.
