pickle1975 Posted March 14, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Wondering if the Pacific Ocean is more rough than the Atlantic Ocean? I have heard that the Pacific is more rough but was wondering what everyone else thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WishIwasOutThereNOW Posted March 14, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2010 supposedly, the pacific ocean got it's name because it's so peaceful. i dont know anything about the pacific, just some useless crap i learned in high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty dingo Posted March 14, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 14, 2010 The oceans are big places. You should be more specfic about where and what time of year. I would not want to be cruising the North Atlantic in winter, or even making a Bermuda run between October and April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okwriter Posted March 14, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Interesting question, and I'd be curious to know if one is generally rougher than the other. Also, is there a time of year that each is better than other times of the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newt98 Posted March 15, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 15, 2010 for a general answer, i believe the pacific is a little rougher on the mexican riviera cruises. i've only been on one four day cruise out of l.a., but it was worse than anything i've been on from the atlantic side, western carib, eastern carib, southern carib.

onthehighseas606 Posted March 15, 2010 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2010 We've cruised the Pacific quite a bit, and we've never had a "rough" cruise--smooth sailing all the way. The only time we encountered rough seas was coming out of Cabo one time, but even then I did not consider it "rough." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are looking at the cruises for the end of February 2011 leaving from either LA or San Diego, CA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
