Great news! SeaDream Cruise ships is back in the water! We are your resource for the most up to date information around vaccination & testing requirements, whether you will need a mask, taking shore excursions, and health & safety measurements taken by the cruise line.
Do I need a Vaccine to travel on a SeaDream Cruise?
All SeaDream guests 18 years of age and older are required to be fully vaccinated with all COVID-19 vaccine doses administered at least 14 days before sailing. Guests under 18 (12 for the Caribbean) are not required to be vaccinated.
We do not collect vaccination cards or store proof of vaccination. Those cruise lines that have vaccine requirements to cruise will likely ask for proof at the time of boarding.
Things to know:
- Guests under 18 are not required to be vaccinated.
- To maintain safety protocols, we will limit the number of unvaccinated guests under the age of 18.
- Guests will be administered a COVID-19 antigen test immediately before embarkation and again while on the voyage.
- We will provide you with a comfortable place to await the results (approximately 30 minutes). Once we receive a negative test result, the crew will welcome you aboard to enjoy your SeaDream experience.
Do I need to wear a mask?
Masks will be required when social distancing is not possible. Masks will not be required while swimming, relaxing on our decks, or while actively eating and drinking.
Things to know:
- Masks must be worn in terminals, during embarkation and disembarkation.
- All guests should carefully review pre-booking and pre-travel health advice on our website and the website of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
- All team members will be required to wear SeaDream-approved face masks.
Can I get off the ship at port?
In most ports, guests are allowed to go ashore independently. In some ports, guests will be required to engage in a “bubble” tour program, which involves going ashore in an organized, yacht-sponsored program.
Things to know:
- There may be a reduction in the capacity of excursions and tour vehicles.
- Only shore excursions that comply with our prescribed protocols will be permitted, with strict adherence required of all guests and denial of re-boarding for any guests who do not comply.
These restrictions are under the control of local government and are subject to change without advance notice, so we encourage guests to come prepared for potential mask requirements ashore.
Health & Safety on the Ship
Our concern for your health and well-being begins well before your journey starts and continues each and every day aboard our ships, which feature stringent health and sanitation protocols.
The buffets will be open, with crew members serving all guests.
Things to know:
- The crew is employing the most stringent of cleaning procedures using advanced cleaning tools.
- We will disinfect high-traffic areas continually throughout the day.
- Our crew will disinfect tenders after each use.
- We have ultraviolet lights and electrostatic misters deployed to ensure cleanliness and guest safety.
