Cancun Boobs Cruise

In the News

The Cancun Boobs Cruise has attracted attention far beyond Cancun. Here’s how the cruise found its way onto national television and into independent media coverage.

The Boobs Cruise on The Late Show

During the COVID-19 pandemic, a Daily Beast story about the return of adult events caught the attention of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The result was a distinctly Colbert take on the Boobs Cruise, and a moment we couldn’t resist saving.

Editorial context and accuracy note: These reports use their own language and political framing. Both describe the Boobs Cruise as a “sex party”; that is not how we describe or operate it. The Boobs Cruise is an adults-only topless party cruise, not a sex party. The Late Show also says guests were asked to wear face masks; that is incorrect. We did not require or ask guests to wear masks. We share this coverage as a historical record of outside media attention, not as an endorsement of every claim or characterization.

In March 2021, Daily Beast reporter Alaina Demopoulos interviewed owner Steve Wright for a story about adult events and tourism returning during the pandemic. Steve spoke about the Boobs Cruise, its guests and the demand for a little normality after lockdown.

The article reflects the politics and public-health debate of an unusual moment in history, but it remains an interesting independent snapshot of the cruise and the people who were ready to get back on the water.
