Is 5 days too short for cruise?

How many evening outfits do I need for a cruise?

I usually dress for dinner, but they don't have to be completely different outfits for each evening. Usually a long skirt and a pair of dress pants, and 2 or 3 dressy tops (which are incredibly small when rolled) will do me for a week or 10-day cruise. For your 4-nighter, 1 or 2 evening outfits will be fine.

For a seven-day cruise, two to three swimsuits should be sufficient. However, if you plan on spending a lot of time at the pool or beach, you may want to pack more. In addition, don't forget to pack sunscreen, hats, a hair dryer, and cover-ups to protect your skin from the sun.
