10 Sunsets That Will Make You Want To Cruise Right Now

Your Cruise Girl here.  As a cruise addict extraordinaire, I don’t need any inspiration to book a cruise.  I will cruise as often as my PTO and bank account will allow. 🤣

If you’re down about the state of cruising today, let me give you a little inspiration to help you get over the cruise slump hump.  Sunsets are one of the most wondrous and beautiful moments to be found in nature.  For me, watching a sunset is a form of meditation.  It connects me to nature and forces me to focus on and appreciate the beauty of it.  Psychology Today wrote an article about How Admiring the Sunset Changes You for the Better. The benefits they list are emotional well-being, increased concern for others, and satisfaction with life.  I have to agree, I feel all of that.  I find watching sunsets to be very relaxing and have made it a habit to take sunset photos on every cruise.  While the future of cruising this year is uncertain, I wanted to share with you 10 sunset photos that will make you want to cruise right now!  I hope you enjoy!

When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.

The darkness that follows a sunset is never so dark that it can change the inevitability of a sunrise.

Cruising this year may not be a possibility (keep hope alive!), but hopefully my photos have inspired you to dream of cruising in the future when we can do so safely.  Even if these photos don’t have you ready to board a ship, I hope they have brought some peace and joy to you for this short moment in time.
