The nude cruise — aptly dubbed “Big Nude Boat” — is scheduled to depart from Miami on Feb. 3, 2025, embarking on a trip through the Caribbean before returning on Feb. 14.
“We’ll be sailing aboard the lovely Norwegian Pearl, a 2,300-passenger ship with loads of entertainment, lots of open deck space, and multiple dining options,” the cruise website reads. “Her specialty restaurants and a large buffet area for nude outdoor dining will easily accommodate a wide variety of culinary tastes.”
Cruisegoers will have the option to enjoy multicourse meals, hot-stone massages, lively nightspots, a whiskey bar, casino, spa and more while sailing on the seas.
Aside from the “bare cruising,” the tour schedule offers an itinerary for the following locations:

To go aboard the nude cruise, guests will need a valid passport, and nudity is only allowed while on the ship, with a few exceptions.
Clothes are required while eating in the dining rooms, and guests are asked to sit on a towel or some article of clothing when “bare-bottomed” or in a thong.
In addition, Bare Necessities says that guests aren’t allowed to take photos of others aboard the cruise without permission.
Pricing for the cruise begins at around $2,000 per person, though the more upscale cabins can reach over $33,000.
