Resort-casual attire is recommended both on the ships and ashore. For dinner, men’s clothing might include sport shirt and slacks. Jackets for men are optional, not required. Women may wear a blouse or sweater and slacks, skirts and dresses. No shorts or hats are permitted in the dining room for dinner.
