mom02 Posted March 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Wondering if it will be warm enough to use the outdoor pool and splash pad on our mid June sailing to Alaska??? I've read that the weather and temps could be unpredictable. We are sailing on the Celebrity Solstice and they might let the kids us the indoor pool, but our 2 yr old is not potty trained yet so I'm assuming she can't use it... So what do you think? Should I even bother packing swimming things for the kids? Those of you with little ones know it's not just the swimming suits, it's also the floaties, swim diapers and other paraphernalia taking up valuable luggage space! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted March 16, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 16, 2016 You just never know. Weather could be sunny, cold, rainy, cloudy, windy or a little of everything. Bring a bathing suite but you will have to see how it works out. Weather changes all the time in Alaska. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffbrig Posted March 17, 2016 #3 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Hot tub is a much better bet. At least for this South Florida guy. I hardly get in my pool unless the water temperature is in the mid-to-upper-80s. Which it is for much of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be better asking on Celebrity's boards for ship specific. As far as swimming in Alaska - yes, you can. Weather can be anything but I have gotten sunburned in Alaska before and have seen people wearing bathing suits on Glacier Bay day. Other times, complete opposite.

etoilefj Posted March 19, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 19, 2016 My theory is that kids will always swim if they can and bathing suits don't take much space so you might as well bring them. We're going at the end of May and my kid is planning to swim daily. Of course I'm lucky enough to have a swimmer big enough that I can supervise from the hot tub so you may have to take my bias into consideration ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
