Attire for the evening

Attire for the Evening One of the great pleasures of cruising aboard The Yachts of Seabourn is the glamour of evenings at sea. Guests appreciate the contrast between the special atmosphere of more formal evenings, which occur two nights during a one-week cruise and three to four nights, depending on the itinerary, on a two-week cruise, and the elegant yet more casual ambiance that prevails on other evenings. Each day in the ship’s programme, a dress advisory designates appropriate attire after 6:00 pm for:

The Restaurant. It will be specified as one of the following:
Elegant Casual: Slacks with a jacket over a sweater or shirt for men; sundress, skirt or trousers a sweater or blouse for women.
Black Tie (optional): Tuxedo (alternatively a dark suit) for men; evening gown or other formal attire for women.
The Veranda Cafe. Always offering guests a more casual dining experience, it will be specified as one of the following:
Casual: Slacks and a sweater or shirt for men; skirt or trousers with a sweater or blouse for women.
Attire for Daytime On all Seabourn cruises the general shipboard atmosphere is elegant but relaxed, and you will enjoy dressing comfortably while indulging in a variety of moods.
Elegant casual wear is preferred for The Restaurant. Shorts and other more casual attire are welcomed in the Veranda Cafe during breakfast and lunch. Swimsuits, brief shorts, exercise clothing and cover-ups should be reserved for poolside lounging, deck activities and the fitness centre or The Spa.

Attire on Shore When planning your cruise wardrobe for any climate, layering your clothes will work best. For tropical cruises, bring light, loose-fitting garments that can be paired with a lightweight jacket or sweater. For cooler seasons or climates, pack extra layers or warmer garments such as a light topcoat and some sweaters.

When dressing to go ashore, it is helpful to be aware of the customs of the countries you are visiting. In some ports men and women should not wear shorts. May cultures prefer that women wear dresses or skirts when visiting shrines, Churches and temples. If your cruise takes you to Monte Carlo, casino dress codes require a jacket and tie for men. Once you are on board, Seabourn’s well versed staff members offer informative talks on local customs. Additional hints can be found in the Shore Excursion Information Booklet that you will receive with your cruise documentation.
