Do people wear heels on cruises?

Any shoes are fine, from flip-flops to deck shoes. Bare feet are not acceptable inside. Trainers or walking shoes are fine for excursions. Women will wear heels in the evenings but bear in mind that the ship might be moving, so avoid anything too vertiginous.

For passengers looking to enjoy views, especially the scenery in the wake of a ship, we recommend higher decks and the back of the vessel. The higher you pick, the farther you'll see. If you're after views, the best room on a cruise ship will be a balcony cabin at the ship's rear end.
