spurt Posted August 15, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2013 We are considering a voyage on the Pride of America in February. What have people's experiences been about the seas during that cruise? Rough, calm, somewhere in between? How does the ship handle the sea's condition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamloops50 Posted August 15, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 15, 2013 the seas around the islands is usually fairly calm. We have only once ran into rough seas between the islands . That was when we left Kauai for Hilo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzn Bills Fan Posted August 16, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Calm is not true. The winter months also mean big wave season in Hawaii. Waters can be rough on the southside of the islands but the waves are much bigger on the northside of the islands. Winter months also mean LOTS of whales though.

S&S Cruisers 1983 Posted August 16, 2013 #7 Share Posted August 16, 2013 We had high winds for two nights and the outside decks were closed. Probably not the norm though. This was in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillCruiseForMoney Posted August 16, 2013 #8 Share Posted August 16, 2013 My experience was that it was very calm - Sailed in November 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
