Some of the common reasons people  give for not liking cruising is that it is boring, but really that's not true.  It's all about what you want to do on board.  Again here people differ as some like to participate in all the activities, others just want to sit in the sun, read and relax while others like me, do a combination of these things but I must admit overall I just do my own thing and relax and read.

Another myth people have is that if you don't like to party and drink then you won't fit in with the others on board.  In reality most cruises consist of a wide range of people including singles, couples, families and groups traveling together.  These people are from all age groups and definitely they aren't all party people.

Some cruise destinations such as Alaska and Australia/New Zealand do attract an older group whereas the Caribbean and the Mexican Riviera has a younger group overall.

Don't let others opinions influence you too much.  You don't know what you are missing out on unless you experience something first hand.  Cruising is great in so many ways, so find out for yourself.
