I attached photos from the Gem this past Thanksgiving - there were 4 inches of snow accumulated from the time we boarded to the time we sailed. We take an annual trip out of NY cruising in November / December.and it is cold and rough those first 2 days!!! It was lightly raining and we were in Winter coats, but one of the best sail aways I remember. It was really cool sailing out of New York harbor as it was dark by the time we sailed and all the building were lit up. Deck chairs were available, pool & hot tubs open. The other days were not Summer like, but could still be in a bathing suite on a lounger if in the sun. First day at sea out, and last day at sea back were too chilly to "sun bathe" but we did more indoor things on those two days.

We sailed on the Jewel out of NYC about 3 Decembers ago. If the pool is closed, will deck chairs still be available? Hot tubs? Thanks.
Nyc weather december full#
on the first full sea day heading south and the two seas heading back to NY. For those of you who have cruised out of NY before the holidays, how is the weather on the "sea days" before and after the Cape Canaveral and Bahamas stops? In reading reviews, some people have stated that it is too windy and cold to use the pool areas, rope courses etc. I know that the weather in NY will be cold on the day we depart and return to NY. We will be sailing out of New York on a December cruise.
