Temperature on the ship

[SantanaTto]

Leaving 5/23 for Bermuda on the Empress of the Seas.. Since this will be my first cruise, I was wondering what the temperature is like in the evenings on the ship. Will I need a jacket or sweater or will I be comfortable in short sleeves?? I don't want to overpack (like I ALWAYS do!!)but I don't want to freeze in the evenings either!

 

HELP!

If you have a question about a specific ship or cruiseline you have a much better chance of getting a good answer if you ask it on the board here at Cruise Critic dedicated to that cruiseline.

 

Good luck!

Most ships can be pretty darn cold in public areas. Even in the Caribbean in August I usually wear long-sleeves in the evening and bring a jacket for on deck/balcony.

I agree. Royal, Carnival, NCL...have all been too cold for me in the evenings. I bring a pashmina/shawl which works just great.
