Is the North sea rough on a cruise ship?

I combed through cruise forums to see if others found the North Sea and British Isles to be especially rough. About half of the responders said they experienced rough seas while the others said they had perfectly fine weather during their sailing - not necessarily helpful.

Midship cabins The big allure of a midship cabin is its stability. You won't feel the rocking of the sea in a midship cabin nearly as much as you will in a cabin toward the front or back of a vessel. This is because ships are like teeter-totters. They pitch forward and back around a central axis that barely moves.

To minimize the risk of seasickness, book one of the world's largest ships, such as Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas. Keep in mind that the ocean is much larger than even the most gargantuan ships, so when the seas are rough, you can still feel movement — just less than if you're sailing on a 100-person yacht.

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.

Did you know that you'll suffer less from sea sickness if you choose a cabin located in the middle of the ship on a lower deck? Do you consider how large the ship is when booking your cruise? This is all more important than you think as you feel the motion less on the mega ships…
