Taking a Disney Cruise is a magical experience that will give you memories that will last a lifetime. Everyone loves to get a momento or keepsake to remind them of all the fun they had on board a ship. Unfortunately, many people make the mistake of waiting til their last day onboard to purchase Disney Cruise Line Merchandise.
By then, many things are sold out or you don’t get a chance to actually use while on the cruise.
I prefer to purchase special Disney Cruise Line merchandise prior to my trip so that I can actually use them during my vacation!
Where to Buy Disney Cruise Line Merchandise
When looking for Disney Cruise Line items, you will want to check out the ShopDisney.
They usually have the best selection of all things related to Disney Cruises.
Wondering what Disney Cruise items we think should be purchased before you trip? Check out the list below!
8 Items to Buy Before a Disney Cruise
Disney Cruise Shirts
You will see many families wearing matching t-shirts.
While personalized Disney Cruise t-shirts are a great idea, some may want to opt for a shirt they will wear beyond the cruise.
Keep this in mind when you are looking for cruisewear for your family!
Disney Cruise Line Autograph Book
If you have kids, they will want to get autographs.
With all the meet & greets on the ship & on Castaway Cay, they are sure going to want somewhere to keep their autographs.
This Disney Cruise Line autograph book is perfect.
Beach Tote Bag
One thing you may find that you need is a nice bag to haul your stuff to Castaway Cay or to while shopping in the Bahamas.
I just love this tote that looks to be the perfect size!
Once off the ship, you can use it as a carry-on bag for travel or on a trip to your neighborhood pool.
Hidden Mickeys Go To Sea: A Field Guide to the Disney Cruise Line's Best Kept Secrets
You probably know that there are hidden Mickey's all over the Disney theme parks and resorts, but did you know they are also on Disney Cruise Line ships?
Use the Hidden Mickeys go to Sea book to help you spot them!
Disney Cruise Magnetic Dry Erase Board
A great way to communicate with your family is with a dry erase board.
Use it to keep track of where each member of your family is, or use it just to announce how much fun you are having.
Fish Extender for Disney Cruise
One of the best things to do on a Disney Cruise is participate in a DIsney Cruise Fish Extender Exchange.
If you don't have time or skill to make your own Fish Extender, you can always buy one!
Disney Cruise Line Character Tumbler
Let's face it. You are going to want to stay hydrated on your cruise.
While they do provide you free soda and water, they are in paper cups when you are by the pool.
Wouldn't it be better if you could keep your drink super cold while hanging poolside?
These Disney Cruise Tervis Tumblers are perfect and you can use them once you are back on land too!
While you will be able to purchase some of these items on board the ship, I have found that they charge 10-20% more than if you purchase them directly from the Disney Store online.
The only exception is Castaway Cay souvenirs. They can ONLY be purchased at Castaway Cay.
