8 Things in Selecting River over Ocean – #1 Is Seasickness a Concern

#1  Is seasickness a concern?

Do you get sea sick?
Have you not cruised before, and worry about it? Then, maybe river cruising is for you!
Here’s a page from my guide, which I’ve summarized below.
Here are things to consider:


River cruise ships always see the shoreline.

  • You experience no tides, no waves, no rocking.
  • There is very little motion, so you feel safe & no seasickness.
  • Inland waterways are much calmer than oceans.
  • Typically, you experience very quiet motoring.
  • River ships flow smoothly with ebb and flow of river.
Ocean cruises go on open water, and you will not see land often.
  • You will experience much more motion than on a river.
  • Crossing oceans will mean waves.
  • Even with modern-stabilizers minimizing movement, you will feel motion.
  • Many fear seasickness.

Do you think one would matter to you more? Or maybe you’d like to try both
