TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – Cruise ship passengers can strip down completely on the “Big Nude Boat,” which will depart from Florida in 2025 for a 10-day trip to the Caribbean.
Bare Necessities Tour & Travel will take over the Norwegian Pearl from February 3 to 14. Naked passengers will visit the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, St. Maarten, Dominica, Martinique and St. Lucia.
Although there will be clothing-free experiences throughout the trip, proper nudist etiquette and other passenger rules must be followed, such as wearing clothes in dining rooms.
“When the ship is at sea or anchored in a port, passengers may be naked unless notices to the contrary have been made. When the ship is alongside in port, all passengers must be fully clothed throughout the ship, including balconies, until the ship leaves port and it is announced that nudity is permitted again,” reads a message on the Bare Necessities Tour & website Travel. .
Guests are also encouraged to sit bare-bottomed on towels or wear a thong in their cabin, at the pool and in the buffet area.
Passengers are not allowed to take photos or videos of anyone on board the ship without their consent, regardless of whether they are clothed or not. There will be “no photo zones” in the Big Nude Boat, the tour company said.
Caressing or inappropriate touching is off limits, as is being naked in the presence of other ships in port. Lingerie and fetish clothing are also not permitted.
Anyone not adhering to decorum and etiquette will be excluded from the cruise.
