Bahama Mama 40 Posted April 4, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but I'm having difficulties finding it. Does Cayman follow DST or not? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zydecocruiser Posted April 4, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Grand Cayman does NOT observe daylight savings time. It is now 1 hour behind East Coast time and the same as Central. Here is one site to check world times: http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_KY.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladycaveat Posted April 4, 2005 #3 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Which means . . . if my ship is set to leave GC at 4:30 p.m. - it's actually 3:30 p.m. GC time . . . correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it depends on whether your ship follows DST or local time. I was told by Royal Caribbean that their ships will be the same as local time...so that messes up the 9:30 Stingray and Island tour I had booked with Nativeway!

lhasa2go Posted April 5, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Why, what time does your ship get in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyIL Posted April 5, 2005 #6 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Why, what time does your ship get in? My ship gets in at 9:00 on April 18th. I e-mailed Sharon at NativeWay, and got a response today. She is moving the tour time to 10:30 instead of 9:30 (yay!!!), and said she wouldn't know until April 11th what time my ship actually arrives in GC, because no ships were able to tender yesterday.

lhasa2go Posted April 5, 2005 #7 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I am on the Imagination getting in at 7:00. I guess I need to figure out what time the ship runs on. I am also booked on the 9:30 stingray/reef tour. I wonder if this is the same tour. Did she say why they were unable to tender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharon said, "unfortunately, none of the cruise ships stopped in Cayman on April 4 (the seas were too choppy in the harbor)." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehpride Posted April 8, 2005 #9 Share Posted April 8, 2005 So, next January, Grand Cayman and Florida will be on the same time? Is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyIL Posted April 24, 2005 #13 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I'm back from my cruise on Splendour of the Seas, and the person I spoke with at RCI about time changes was wrong! We did not change time in Grand Cayman, and we arrived at 8:00 instead of 9:00 - so had plenty of time for my 10:00 local time tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusin_soon Posted April 25, 2005 #14 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Just got off the Navigator and it stayed on EDT the entire cruise. The ship was there from 8 to 4 EDT or 7 to 3 Grand Cayman time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Splendour was "parked" next to you in Cozumel! We changed time zones when he got to Mexico, and again after leaving Cozumel - but were always on DST.

SomewhereBeyondTheSea Posted May 4, 2005 #16 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I'll be in GC on June 2nd. Our shiP leaves Grand Cayman at 5:30 pm. Does this mean 5:30 pm GC time or 5:30 ship time? I will be sailing Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
