Deluxe Cruises packing guidance for this August cool-weather itinerary

  • Add sun protection and binoculars where scenery or wildlife viewing is central; use the final forecast and operator documents to refine the list.

Windstar Cruises dress guidance

  • Windstar has no formal nights. Daytime dress is relaxed resort wear, while dinner in the main evening restaurants calls for casually elegant clothing.
  • Published evening examples include slacks or non-distressed jeans with a collared, button-down or polo shirt, or a blouse, skirt, casual dress or sundress. Reserve shorts, T-shirts, hats and flip-flops for daytime.

Packing suggestions are Deluxe Cruises editorial guidance; the cruise line's final documents and the weather forecast control the last check.
