(Newser) – And you thought it was hard avoiding gross infections during a normal cruise. The Miami Herald reports Mexico's Original Group, which already operates a number of adults-only resorts, will erotically embark on an eight-day sex cruise in 2017. The Desire Cruise features “clothing-optional areas (including the pool), private playrooms, adult-oriented entertainment, and provocative theme nights," according to its website. There will also be "intense icebreakers." The Original Group's CEO tells the Herald the cruise will be "the sensual way to get away."

The Desire Cruise will take place aboard Royal Caribbean's 690-person Azamara Quest. And sorry looky-loos, but the New York Daily News reports it's couples-only. Other rules include: no nudity in the dining room and no sex with the crew. The cruise leaves from Italy in September 2017 with stops in Croatia and Slovenia, and, presumably, Bonetown. Esquire helpfully lists the sights high-seas sex-havers can expect to see, including "butts," "more butts," and "the striking waterfront installations of Croatian architect Nikola Bašic.” Tickets for this boat-based bacchanalia run between $2,800 and $11,000.
