If you plan on going on a cruise you will definitely need a passport. Apply early so you don't have to pay for rush delivery.

Cruise Must Haves
Here are a list of things I discovered are necessary for planning and packing for a cruise.
One thing to take into consideration when on a cruise is how will my actions effect wildlife, both land and marine.
Reef-Friendly Sun Protection (U.S. National Park Service)
Rash guards are my favorite! They protect you from the sun immediately and without needing to reapply every couple of hours. This particular one even covers my plus size frame.

When you do need to use sunscreen make sure it's reef friendly. I personally have always been a fan of the badger brand.
Badger SPF 40 Sport Mineral Sunscreen, 2.9 fl oz
More sun protection without needing to reapply! That counts as a huge win for me.
FURTALK Women's Wide Brim Straw Sun Visor Hat
Oh the Memories

Fish Extenders
Ok, so apparently when you go on a cruise you can participate in a gift exchange of sorts. You will hang a "fish extender" outside your door. This is where people will find you and place your gifts. Look on Facebook for groups traveling the same time...
Here is a standard, easy to get fish extender. I suspect most newbies will use this one. I feel like travel experts might have more elaborate one or personalized options.

Ok, you knew Etsy was going to hook us up. I love this so much! You can personalize it and get up six pockets! It's adorable and makes me want snacks. Disney snacks!!
