Why Port Packs exist

Your Cruise Isn't Generic.
Your Kid's Journal Shouldn't Be Either.

Every family's itinerary is different. Every kid's adventure is different. So why hand them a blank "Day at Port" page and call it a journal?

What's inside the free journal

A Real Head Start.
But Just the Beginning.

The free Passport Pals journal gives your child everything they need to kick off the adventure — embarkation day, ship activities, memory prompts, packing lists, and more.

But here's the truth: the magic happens at the ports. That's where the stories are. That's where your kid will want to write three pages instead of three lines — if you give them the right prompts.

Free journal: ship days, embarkation, packing, general memories
Port Packs: specific prompts, scavenger hunts & activities for your exact stops
Adventure Add-Ons: dolphin encounters, waterparks, snorkeling & more

What Cruise Moms Are Saying

"My daughter filled out every single page for CocoCay. Every. Single. One. She never does that with anything. We're already talking about which ports to add for our next cruise."

MR

Melissa R.

Royal Caribbean · Mom of 2

CocoCay Pack

"I was skeptical a $3.99 add-on would make a difference. Then my son spent 45 minutes on the Nassau scavenger hunt and asked me if we could come back next year. Worth every penny."

JT

Jenna T.

Carnival · Mom of 3

Nassau Pack

"Honestly the best $8 I spent on our entire vacation. Two port packs, two very happy kids, and zero 'I'm bored' on port days. The dolphin add-on made my 7-year-old cry (happy tears)."

Ashley M.

Norwegian · Mom of 2

Dolphin Add-On

"We've done 4 cruises and always struggled to keep the kids engaged on port days. This changed everything. The Cozumel pack had my daughter hunting for fish at the snorkel spot instead of asking for her iPad."

DK

Dana K.

Princess Cruises · Mom of 3

Cozumel Pack

"Downloaded the free one Thursday night, added three port packs, printed Friday morning, sailed Saturday. So easy. My kids didn't even know I'd planned it — they just thought mom was really cool this trip."

"My 10-year-old has already asked if we can frame her Labadee pages. She rated every zipline, drew the view from the top, and wrote more than she has all school year. This journal is magic."
