First time cruisers!

Hi! We’re planning our first cruise and I could use all the advice I can get! We normally vacation to WDW. We have our hearts set on a Christmas cruise to the Bahamas. Any experience on the weather conditions? I would really appreciate any tips y’all can give!

We've taken 3 Christmas break cruises to the Bahamas. The weather will likely be warm but not too hot (70's - 80's). The ocean water in the Bahamas will be a bit chilly, but easy enough for your body to quickly adjust to.

It's a great time to cruise, as it's the beginning of the Bahamas' dry season. The ship's Christmas decorations are lovely. If you'll be doing a Merrytime cruise, be sure to sign up for gingerbread house building at the Port Adventures Desk as soon as you board the ship.
