The cruise ship offers a variety of opportunities for you to stay on the ship and still have a world of fun. Catch a show at one of the many theaters, head to the spa for a relaxing facial and massage, or grab your headphones or a book, stop by the bar for a cocktail and just lay out by the pool and truly relax.
For the life of the party, of course cruise ships are also meant for partying. If you love the opportunity to grab a cocktail or two or three but who’s counting anyways it’s vacay, and let loose on a dance floor, nightlife on the cruise will be the best time for you. The DJs truly set the mood and play a variety of music that will keep you up and partying to early hours of the morning.
The People

So single girls don’t worry there is a chance to possibly link up with Prince Charming, and he may even come with a fancy accent. Dinner on the cruise is set up with the intention of allowing you to mingle with other people, so you may be sharing your dinner table with strangers, but by the end of the cruise you have definitely bonded with your table mates.
The Cost
Spring break cruising can be as low as $300 per person. This can be cruises that range from 3-7 day stays. It includes basic food and non-alcoholic drinks on the ship. Some ships will provide special beverage packages and deals to exclusive restaurants onboard. Other considerations for cost during a cruise trip would be gratuities, excursions, and depending where you are coming from airfare to get to the particular port you are leaving from.
Will all of that being said, this year why not treat yourself to a trip that will keep you content in all ways. Don’t just dream it, do it, you deserve it. Why not be the history buff, adventurer, the life of the party and the I just want to relax person all in one, and cruise into Spring break and Summer this year?
