I'm new to Carnival and sailing from San Juan in December. Can you just check your luggage in without boarding the ship at 11:00 am or so? I really don't care when we get on the ship but would like to get our luggage out of the hotel and then we can do some San Juan things until 3-4 or so.

You may want to consider a private guide we are using toursbylocals I think it was like $400. Can't tell you how it is since we haven't taken it yet

Thank you, that is exactly the kind of thing that is so helpful. To the pool and beach it is, then.

Drake,

Thanks for the info you have given, I've found it very helpful! We are coming on 12.15.15 and will be renting a car. We wanted to try and hit a few beaches and do some snorkeling. First, on Point Udall, it looks like there are two beaches within walking distance, Isaac Bay and East End Bay. Are these easy enough to get to for walking with a 9 year-old? Is it OK to leave the car parked at Point Udall?

Second, on the West end of the island, there is a road "Veteran's Shore Drive" that looks like it ends at a pool and parking lot. Here is a photo, which may or may not work, it has been awhile:

Are you allowed to park there and use that beach? It looks very convenient with the paved lot.

Thanks in advance,

Scott
