Cruising ducks · you found one

You’ve been ducked!

Somebody hid this little duck on board for a stranger to find, and the stranger turned out to be you. It’s yours to keep — and the tag comes with real cruise deals from travel agents, good on your next sailing.

01 · FOUND

Pick it up. It’s a gift.

No catch, no purchase, nothing owed. A passenger paid a few cents for this duck and hid it on purpose.

02 · KEEP OR PASS

Adopt it, or re-hide it.

Half of finders take the duck home for the shelf. The other half tuck it somewhere new — a handrail, a deck chair, the library shelf — and let it keep sailing.

03 · CASH IT IN

Use the finder’s offers.

The tag is the good part. Below are travel agents who will quote your next cruise with a finder’s discount attached.

Step two · the finder’s offers

Your next cruise, booked cheaper.

Questions

The short answers.

Do I have to give my email to get a code?

No. Every code on this page is visible without signing up for anything. Logging your find is optional and exists so the duck’s travel history keeps growing.

Is this run by a cruise line?

No. duckduckatsea is independent and has no affiliation with, sponsorship from, or endorsement by any cruise line. Ship names are used only to describe where ducks have been found.

Where am I allowed to hide a duck?

Public indoor spaces where a duck can’t fall, block anything, or be mistaken for lost property. Never on railings facing open water, never at a lifeboat or muster station, never in a crew-only area. If a crew member asks you to move it, move it.

Can I get ducks to hide myself?

Yes — finder packs go out before sailing season. Log a find above and we’ll tell you when the next batch is available.
