Each cabin on the Mary Day has its own cozy charm. Consider these points to choose the best one for your comfort. Scroll down for cabin photos and descriptions.

• Cabin and bed size: Some cabins are snug and intimate, while others offer a little more room to stretch out. All beds are 6'2 in length. Head to head cabins are best for taller guests.

• Who you're traveling with: Are you sailing solo, with a partner, or with a friend? We have options to fit everyone.

• Sharing or private: Would you prefer a private cabin, or are you open to sharing with another guest?

• Getting in and out of bed: Some berths require a short climb up a ladder, or using a step, while others are at levels to sit down.

• Privacy vs. Budget: Single berths in shared cabins save money; booking a full cabin guarantees privacy.

• Storage & Packing: Smaller cabins have limited storage while double bed cabins have ample storage space- pack light if possible. Soft-sided bags work best and tuck easily into the storage areas in the cabin.

• View & Location: Windows and skylights enhance your experience; consider cabin proximity to common areas for noise preference.

If you're not sure which cabin is the best fit, we're happy to help you choose one that matches your comfort level and style of adventure!

After settling in, you typically have the chance to relax, enjoy the scenic surroundings, and possibly take a stroll into nearby Camden for a local dinner before returning onboard to spend the night, preparing for the adventures ahead.
