Sea42 Posted January 10, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Nope, not another dress code thread! We will be cruising from Chile to Tahiti next January. I'm wondering what the temperatures are like in the middle of the ocean. Is the ocean water warm at that great depth? Yes, I know it's nice and toasty on land at that latitude but what's it like for walking out on the deck in the evening? Maybe my light sweater that I use on the plane will be enough?

StanandJim Posted January 10, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2018 If you're from Wisconsin, you can't be too delicate! Humidity and Temps are less on the Ocean, but your sweater should be fine for that area of the World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the key is to dress for it. Thanks for the information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did that cruise 3 yrs ago and it remains one of our favorites! It was hot and humid the whole time. We took a jacket to wear to the airport and never wore it again til it was time to go home. Enjoy! It’s a great itinerary Kathleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petoonya Posted January 10, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Did the PPT to LA last May. The last 2 days of the cruise as we approached LA it was cool enough that I felt my lined windbreaker was not quite enough. Don't know if it will be quite like that of waters off Chile though.

Tansy Mews Posted January 12, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I did that trip at the same time of year but I can’t recall. Photos show me in a short sleeve blouse. I would bring something for wind. It was cool further south in Chile though. Since it is January now, you could check today’s weather.

Rare travelberlin Posted January 12, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 12, 2018 We cruised from Chile to Auckland a couple of years ago at that time of the year. For us the pullover we use on the plane was enough for walking early mornings and in the evenings. Are you going to stop at Eastern Islands on thar cruise? It was a fantastic itinerary, which we are hoping to repeat one day. Ivi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridiana Posted January 12, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Valparaiso in March: I am wearing a light jacket and a scarf in the photos. According to our guide, it was a nice day. It had been raining a week before we arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
