    If you’re like me, you think of Alaska and instantly envision snow-capped mountain peaks, raincoats, and cozy boots.

    Great advice for an Alaskan cruise. Dark sole colors on the sneakers are best rather than white soles. It's easier to keep them clean looking with a wipe in the cabin with tissues. I sprayed my sneakers with Water Repellent spray before the trip to minimize water getting into my sneakers. Also, I always brought a change of socks in my backpack just in case I got caught in the rain or found myself puddle whumping on the trails 😂 I usually brought a t-shirt as well to change just in case I got sweaty on the trails as well. And, of course, bring a small plastic bag in your backpack to put any wet items in to avoid a mess.

    I wore jeans in Juneau. It rained a lot that day and my jeans were soaked! No fun! Now I wear yoga leggings with a water resistant hiking pant. I also pack a pair of rain pants to go on top if it is really rainy!

    We went on an Alaska cruise in September 2019. I am so thankful we brought our rain coats, ski pants and waterproof notes as it was raining exceptionally hard in Juneau. We’re from Oregon and used to the rain but this was colder, wetter and very windy. I was surprised at cruisers who did not come prepared wearing flip flops. T shirts snd shorts, let me say they were miserable. So pack accordingly to the time of year you plan to cruise. Bring binoculars as my husband spotted a grizzly bear, you won’t want to miss these special opportunities.

    I am going in 3 weeks. I have a Columbia jacket where the winter coats zips into the rain coat, so it gives me 3 jackets: cold and dry, rainy, and cold and rainy. I plan on hoodies instead of hats (because I lose hats). Good to know about sunglasses. I am bringing 2 sets of sneakers. A new broken in pair, and a pair that is mostly water resistant on their last life that I plan on wearing with thick socks in Ketchikan. I can’t wait!

    The only "tweak" I have to your packing list is around sneakers. I've done this twice and plan to do it again in June - I bring a pair of shoes that are well broken in, but that don't have holes. You know the shoes that you know you're going to throw away but they just aren't on their last leg quite yet. I bring them, stomp around Alaska in them, get them muddy, get them dirty, wet, whatever and then I LEAVE THEM. Gives me extra souvenir room and I don't have to pack these nasty shoes in with my clothes to go home!

      Yes - Vessi sneakers are terrific, really waterproof and comfortable. They are fairly wide, so a thick sock is no problem. They are designed in Vancouver, where they understand rainy days. The only reason they are not my everyday shoe is I’m trying to keep them in good shape for travel.

    Sherri, I have lots of tennis shoes but none are waterproof. What do you think about the waterproof spray? I have a spray can that I use to protect my UGGS. Could work for sneakers?? Going to Alaska for the 4th time in Aug but still found the video helpful and pleased to see that I pack pretty well for the trip. I agree with the casualness of the dining room on Alaska cruises. thanks...

    • @CruiseTipsTV

      Unfortunately, I don't think it will work if the shoes are still "porous". I don't think that you need a fully waterproof shoe, but rather, one that doesn't leak. Hope this helps!

    Wearing wool socks in the Alaskan summer is usually pretty silly. Water proof athletic hiking boots are a must in alaska all year round. Wearing shorts in Alaska is not silly at all. Hiking in jeans on a warm day even in the rain can be miserable.
