Taking a Safe Caribbean Cruise
by Traves da Costa
http://www.luxcaribbean.com

Any ocean cruise is something to really look forward to,
but going to the Caribbean is extra special. There is
something unique about sailing into this exotic part of the
world. Not only will you enjoy cruising on the open waters,
but you will also see a number of great ports of call.

Before you depart on your cruise, make plans to bring along
a few precautionary items that may help to ensure you~re
your cruise is safe and enjoyable. You~ll be spending a lot
of time aboard the ship in beautiful sunny climate ~ while
the days may seem mild the tropical sun can be dangerous ~
it~s crucial to protect your skin against the ravages of
the sun. After all, skin cancer (Melanoma) is on the
increase, in fact, occurrences of skin cancer are up almost
400% in recent decades.

Bring along some dermatologist-approved sunscreen and make
sure you apply it on before going out in the strong sun.
Some sunscreens cause skin irritations, so ask your doctor
to recommend a sunscreen that would best suit you. Any
time you go into the water, reapply the sunscreen.

Another important item to pack is your sunglasses. Get a
pair with high-level UV protection to prevent sun damage to
your eyes. Wearing sunglasses not only keep your eyes safe
from sunshine and glare, they help to prevent wrinkles
like crow~s feet that can appear around your eyes due to
squinting from the sun~s brightness.

The proper clothing can make a big difference in the level
of sun protection your body can have. For example, wear a
cap or hat with a brim to help shade your face from the
sun~s glare. It also should not have an open crown, since
this area can be susceptible, despite hair covering, to sun
damage, burning, and even melanoma. Wearing a cap will
help to prevent your hair from drying out as well.

In general, wear loose-fitting, light-colored clothing that
can bounce harmful sunshine, instead of dark colors that
attract the powerful heat. Be careful about loosely woven
fabrics, however, as some allow the sun to pass through and
affect the skin. Pack a sweater or jacket in case the
evenings become breezy or chill.

If you~ve ever encountered a problem with motion sickness,
you may want to pack some medication for this problem. Ask
your physician or pharmacist about a patch or a pill that
can help prevent your problem.

It is possible to become seasick even if the ship looks as
if it isn~t moving. The motion of the waves tells your
brain that you~re moving, and pretty soon your mind is
confused and you feel sick. When you are out on deck, keep
your eyes on the horizon as much as you can.
