What is the dress code for my cruise?

ONBOARD THE SHIP:

Royal Caribbean's dress code is relaxed. Most of your cruise is casual: jeans, polos, sundresses and blouses all work, shorts are welcome at breakfast and lunch, and swimwear just stays on the Pool Deck. Dinner asks for a little more. There are one to four Dress Your Best nights across a sailing, depending on its length. Here's how it works venue by venue. 

• Casual: You’re on vacation – relax! Jeans, polos, sundresses and blouses are all the right amount of laid back. Please keep swimwear to the Pool Deck. Shorts are welcome for breakfast and lunch.

• Smart Casual: Think of this as a step up from your typical dinner wear. Dress to impress with collared shirts, dresses, skirts and blouses, or pantsuits. Jackets, sports coats and blazers are snazzy and welcome. 

• Formal: Make it a night out in your best black-tie look – suits and ties, tuxedos, cocktail dresses or evening gowns. There can be 1-3 Dress Your Best during a sailing and is at the ship’s discretion.
  
   

Dress Your Best
 

Think of our formal dress code as a night out in your best black-tie look — suits and ties, tuxedos, cocktail dresses or evening gowns are all acceptable options. There can be 1 to 4 Dress Your Best during a sailing and is at the ship’s discretion. Our Chef’s Table dining experience also enforces a formal dress code policy.
 

• 5-night cruises: One Dress Your Best night
• 6 to 10-night cruises: Two Dress Your Best nights
• 11 to 14-night cruises: Three Dress Your Best nights
• 15 + night cruises: Three to four Dress Your Best nights

*The number of Dress Your Best is at the ship's discretion and can vary by itinerary.

• Bare feet are not allowed at any time in any venue and tank tops are not permitted in the Main Dining Room or Specialty Dining venues for dinner.

WHAT TO PACK FOR PORTS OF CALL
 

It is important to note that camouflage print clothing and accessories, as well as military-style clothing, is illegal in Antigua, Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, St. Lucia, and Trinidad and Tobago. This style of clothing is reserved only for members of the military at these destinations. If your itinerary calls at any of them, leave the camo at home.
 

Some visitor sites may require modest dress to enter, such as churches and cathedrals. We encourage you to look into clothing standards for the communities and sites you plan to visit.
