== Other kinds of maritime cruising == *A '''booze cruise''' is a pleasure outing on a ship or boat involving a significant amount of drinking. It may have originated during [[Prohibition in the United States|Prohibition]], when Americans would take "cruises to nowhere" to enjoy alcohol, which could legally be served on board once outside American territorial waters.<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 June 2012 |title=Prohibition: America's Failed Noble Experiment |url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/prohibition-americas-failed-noble-experiment/ |publisher=cbsnews.com}}</ref> *'''Camp cruising''', also known as '''beach cruising''' or '''gunkhole cruising''', is a form of cruising in which sailors sail from point to point in an open or semi-enclosed boat, generally remaining within sight of land. Camp cruisers either camp ashore ("camp cruising" or "beach cruising"), or aboard the boat at anchor. The boats used may be specialized cruising [[Dinghy|dinghies]], small [[keelboat]]s, [[trailer sailer]]s or general purpose daysailing or racing boats pressed into service for the purpose. *''' Commute cruising''', also known as '''seasonal cruising''', is becoming increasingly popular. Commute cruisers live aboard and sail for a few months at a time, exploring new or favorite areas, then leave the vessel in a new location or maybe return it to the same location, travel home for a few months, and return to the vessel to continue cruising during favorable seasons. This type of cruising is somewhat akin to owning a second home that travels by sea and allows for a dual lifestyle. *'''Daysailing''' is recreational sailing that does not involve [[Dinghy racing|racing]] or cruising. Many [[Dinghy racing|racers]] refer to all non-racers as "cruisers", including [[Dinghy sailing|dinghy]] and small keelboat sailors who primarily focus on daysailing. * '''LGBT sailing cruising''' is a type of specialized recreational boat cruising tour organized by cruising operators in many regions of the world. Trips are organized for the LGBT community to provide a unique experience within a "safe space" where travelers can explore new places. *'''Expedition cruising''', where the trips can be a combination of scientists working and tourists along for the adventure, or where scientists lead a group of tourists in order for the tourists to observe animals, plants or natural phenomena. *Travel on '''[[cruise ship]]s''' may be referred to as ''cruising''. Those who take frequent cruise ship vacations may be called ''cruisers''.
