Mediterranean Cruise

[ashes6870]

Thinking about a Mediterranean Cruise - spouse is prone to Seasickness. We would be cruising on a large ship. What are the seas like in spring and Early summer for either an Eastern or Western Mediterranean itinerary? Thanks much ;)

You may hit some rough water and you may not. I know that my Med cruise last summer (early July) was alot less rough than the western caribbean we did last Nov. The Eastern Med sea was like glass. It just all depends. There's no way of predicting exactly. As long as you steer away from fall you should be fine.

 

Just take precautions ahead of time. We always take Ginger pills on a cruise and it does seem to help. Some people swear by Bonine. But whatever you decide, just remember to start it a day or so prior to the cruise.

You just never know.

 

You may have perfectly calms sea or you may have some swells.

 

My best advice is to book a cabin that is mid ship and on a lower deck and to also bring some medication just to be on the safe side.
