Cruise Traditions and Superstitions

The Strange, Fun and Fascinating Culture of the Sea
by Steve Turner

Discover the secrets, stories, and superstitions that shape the world of cruising! Whether you're a first-time cruiser or a seasoned sailor, this entertaining and informative guide takes you deep into the traditions and legends that continue to thrive aboard modern cruise ships.

From centuries-old maritime customs to quirky passenger-created rituals, Cruise Traditions and Superstitions uncovers the fascinating cultural side of cruising you never knew existed. Why do ships avoid Deck 13? What happens if the champagne bottle doesn't break at a ship naming? Why are cruise passengers obsessed with rubber ducks, door magnets, and sailaway songs?

Inside this book, you'll explore:

Real cruise superstitions still followed by crew today The surprising history behind ship naming ceremonies and captain's dinners Modern passenger traditions like cruise ducks, fish extenders, and sailaway rituals Nautical phrases and ship lingo you hear onboard—finally explained Strange but true cruise stories of ghosts, luck, and mystery at sea How to start your own cruise traditions for more meaningful vacations

Perfect for readers who love cruise history, maritime culture, travel trivia, and the vibrant community of cruise lovers around the world, this book is your passport to a deeper—and more fun—understanding of life at sea.

Whether you sail with Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Princess, Disney, MSC, or any other major cruise line, you'll never look at your cruise the same way again.

Cruise smarter. Cruise deeper. Cruise with tradition.
