Natural Light & the Freshest of Air

It's actually not that difficult for passengers to avoid venturing outside for long periods of time during a cruise. A combination of indoor activities plus a little bad weather or even late nights partying can cause anyone to miss out on two of the most needed and healthiest aspects of a cruise.

Inside the ship, your body is forced to adjust to artificial light. If all of the lights were turned out, you would find almost complete darkness in many areas, no matter what time of day.

Crew members refer to this as ‘Permanent Midnight’ and anyone with an inside cabin will know exactly what I am talking about.

Similarly, the air inside of a ship is constantly air-conditioned, with outside air being processed and circulated through miles and miles of air ducts within the ship. The air travels a long way before it comes out of the vents, picking up dust and germs during its journey. By the time it reaches you, the air is no longer of the pure, clean quality that you can find simply by stepping outside.

During days at sea, make sure you spend at least 2 hours outside in order to ensure you receive a healthy amount of fresh air and natural light. Sitting by the pool, walking along the decks, or even relaxing on your balcony are all extremely beneficial ways to pass some time.

Keep in mind that the air you breathe while at sea is some of the cleanest and healthiest air on the planet. If you truly want to re-energize yourself while on vacation, you should breathe as much of this therapeutic air as possible.
