Ahoy there, Jennifer!
What a fantastic question—packing for a Disney cruise can feel like part of the adventure! I’ll admit, I’m notorious for overpacking, but it’s always nice to have options, right? Let’s dive into
what to wear for your magical 3-night Bahamas cruise aboard the
Disney Wish and make sure you’re prepared for every pixie-dusted moment!
The most important thing to keep in mind is that this is your vacation, and your wardrobe should reflect your style and comfort. On shorter cruises like yours, my family and I tend to keep it casual—even for dinner—but we’ve sailed with friends who keep it casual during the day and love dressing up every night. It’s all about what makes you feel magical!
Now, I reached out to one of my favorite Cast Members to confirm, and these are your theme nights for this itinerary (subject to change):
• Friday, March 28: Cruise casual
• Saturday, March 29: Pirate Night
• Sunday, March 30: Optional dress-up night
For
Pirate Night, you’ll see a fun variety of outfits onboard. Some Guests go all out with full pirate costumes (think Captain Jack Sparrow-level), while others, like my family, opt for matching pirate-themed T-shirts. And if dressing up isn’t your thing, that’s perfectly fine too—just enjoy the swashbuckling festivities in whatever makes you feel comfortable.
There are a few attire guidelines to keep in mind:
1. In the main dining rooms, swimwear and tank tops are not permitted.
2. If you’re planning to dine at Palo Steakhouse or Enchanté, you’ll want to elevate your look. Formal or semi-formal attire is recommended, though a polished, dress-casual outfit is also acceptable. My wife and I love dining at Palo Steakhouse (the brunch is phenomenal!), and dressing up for the occasion always adds to the experience.
For daytime, pack light, breathable clothing for exploring Castaway Cay or lounging by the pool. And don’t forget a swimsuit or two—you’ll want to try out the Wish’s AquaMouse! For the evenings or even the dining rooms, you may consider bringing a sweater or light jacket.
Jennifer, I hope this helps you feel ready to
pack your bags with confidence and maybe a bit of flair! Whether you’re dining in the elegant
1923, cheering on fireworks during Pirate Night, or relaxing with your family on the pool deck, your Disney Wish cruise is bound to be filled with magical moments.
Wishing you smooth seas, stylish adventures, and a wardrobe as magical as your journey!
Sea ya real soon with pixie dust and ocean breezes,
Dustin
