CruiseLuvver Posted October 4, 2011 #28 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Missed it and Jamaica once, which meant 5 days on the trot at sea! Managed to make Jamaica the next time, but it was Grand Turk instead. Would still like to get there some day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazy Kruizers Posted October 4, 2011 #30 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Grand Cayman has been on our itineraries about 20 times -- haven't missed that port - yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted October 4, 2011 #31 Share Posted October 4, 2011 We are 1 for 1. Memory seems to tell me is a fairly protected harbor, just not a big pier for docking. I'd guess, but anyone is free to argue or point out any falicy, but I'm guessing unless there is a "named" storm, you will make it. I missed it 1 time out of maybe 12 or 13. However, I almost never get off the ship in GC anymore because it is a tender port and I don't really like to tender and the huge crowds at the tender dock are completely unorganized. The harbor is not at all protected and weather can come up there really quick. That's what kind of put me off tendering. We were on shore when a storm came up and between the ship pitching and the tender pitching they had to litterally yank people off the tender up onto the steps. I had bruised hand prints on both of my arms for more than a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panoramaofthepast Posted October 4, 2011 #32 Share Posted October 4, 2011 We've never skipped Grand Cayman. The only stop we have ever missed was Bermuda, due to a hurricane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyride37 Posted October 4, 2011 #33 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Well, we are 0 for 0, so we will see the first week of March. The odds are in our favor though it seems. I didnt realise this was a tender port. Joyride37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsfuzzmo Posted October 4, 2011 #34 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Haven't missed it in about 7 tries, but the last time (in 2009) we had to reposition and tender in at Spotts. Not great, but at least we made it onto the island. Unfortunately, we all had to pay for taxi's to town AND it was so windy (albeit sunny and 80) that there were no water activites all day. Everything was cancelled, so we just went to Hell and shopped around, had a few drinks and headed back to the ship. In hindsight, I wish we would have rented a car and toured the island (which I've done previously), but we were so grumpy about our excursions being cancelled, having to pay extra to get to town and being too windy to get into that beautiful water, that we just decided to Make do with what was there.
