Are the pools and slides open in port?

[ugh07]

Ill be on the Dream next March and while I know that we don't know the policy on the Dream, I'm wondering if Disney typically keeps it's pools and slides open while in port.

 

Thank You

Yes, the pools are open while in port; we stayed aboard last time in Nassau, and it was nice having less competition for the lounges, hot tubs, etc. I'm 99.9% sure the kids' slide at the Mickey Pool was also open.

 

Some cruise lines use sea water in their pools, and are required to empty them while in port; sea water in many ports can be pretty nasty. DCL uses fresh water, so that's not an issue.

 

No official word yet whether AquaDuck will be open while in port, but I strongly suspect it will be. It, too, will use fresh water.

Recently on the med cruise and the magic cruise the slides and pools were open best time to use them frankly no queueing no hassle
