The world’s largest nude cruise—famously known as the “Big Nude Boat”—is officially returning to PortMiami for an 11-day Caribbean voyage in February 2027. Masterminded by the naturist travel specialists at Bare Necessities Tour & Travel, this fully chartered, clothing-optional sailing will take place aboard the massive Norwegian Jewel.
Cruise Dates & Itinerary
The 11-day adventure departs on Monday, February 15, 2027, and returns to Miami on Friday, February 26, 2027. The sailing is strategically scheduled to align with both Valentine’s Day and Fat Tuesday.
The journey maps out a tropical tour of the Eastern Caribbean:
- Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas (Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island, featuring an exclusive nude beach setup)
- Puerto Rico
- The British Virgin Islands
- St. Kitts
- Antigua
- The Dominican Republic
🚢 Life Onboard & The Rules
The charter completely takes over the Norwegian Jewel, accommodating more than 2,300 adults aged 21 and older. While the vacation centers on full-body freedom, organizers maintain strict, respectful rules:
- When to Clothe: Passengers must wear clothes whenever the ship is docked at a port, during formal captain receptions, and inside the traditional main and specialty dining room
- Towel Etiquette: Cruisers must place a clean towel down before sitting anywhere on the ship (including staterooms, pool deck chairs, and the buffet).
💰 Pricing & Bookings
Fares for the 2027 voyage are priced based on double occupancy, catering to both standard and high-end luxury budgets:
- Interior Cabins: Start around $2,000 per person.
- The Haven Luxury Villas: Scale as high as $33,155 for a premier three-bedroom garden villa.
Because Bare Necessities sailings historically draw a massive community of loyal, repeat travelers, cabins tend to book out incredibly early. Complete scheduling and room availability can be managed directly through the official booking portal at Bare Necessitie
- Strict Environment: It is a body-positive, strictly non-sexual social environment. Lingerie and fetish gear are entirely banned.
- No-Photo Zones: Snapping photos or taking videos without explicit consent is completely prohibited, and designated “No Photo Zones” are heavily enforced around the pool decks and dance floors.
- Crew Members: All cruise line staff members remain fully clothed throughout the voyage.
