Avoiding being Seasick

We're booked on a Baltic cruise in a couple of weeks, sailing out of Newcastle. There are 5 days, not consecutively, at sea and I've heard that the sea can be quite rough. We've done quite a few cruises and I've only had sickness once on first day of first cruise, but it was dreadful. The sea wasn't particularly rough, but there was quite a swell. I don't want it to spoil this trip. Any suggestions appreciated. At the moment I'm visualising dosing up on tablets, sucking on ginger and wearing pressure bands on wrists to keep queasiness at bay. What really works?

Stugeron, wrist bands and as much fresh air as possible.

Not long back from a Baltic cruise, and had no problems at all - and we had several sea days, which I love. A swell coming back which was fine, just went in the bar at 11am and had a brandy! Never take any medication, but Stugeron is the one they used to dole out in the military.
