travlDR Posted March 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 14, 2014 We are booked on the Summit to Bermuda in June in a CC aft facing cabin. Does anyone know how it normally docks, and what the aft of the ship will be facing while in port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted March 14, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2014 There is no predicting whether the ship will pull up with the dock on the port or starboard side, sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynbar Posted March 15, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 15, 2014 The ships do seem to vary which way they dock, but don't worry --- there is not a bad view to be had. King's Wharf in Bermuda has to be one of the most scenic piers anywhere, you can't go wrong, so no need to worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyntil8ing Posted March 15, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 15, 2014 It's 50-50. You'll either be looking at the aft cabins on the Norwegian Breakaway or towards Hamilton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjinouno Posted March 15, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I would say it's a 80 /20 that you will be looking towards Hamiliton, and 80 is the good one, and watching the ferries and jet skiers go by, it seems that NCL always docks to the left and other ships to the right,(looking from land) BUT either way it's a beautiful view all of a sudden you just see past that ship blocking your direct view... Enjoy I'm heading there the end of May Both times I was there aft cabin on NCL other ships were behind us, and what a experience it is waking up, going onto the balcony and here is this HUGE ship backin up into the space,,, kind of throws you off for a minute!

BTSEN5 Posted March 15, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2014 We are in an aft facing cabin on deck 8 on June 22. We are looking forward to sitting on the huge balcony and taking in that view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in 8176 on the 25th of May... center stage aft! only way to cruise (in the aft watching where we still want to be!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miched Posted March 15, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 15, 2014 It's 50-50. You'll either be looking at the aft cabins on the Norwegian Breakaway or towards Hamilton. You could also be looking at the bow. 🍸🍻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyntil8ing Posted March 15, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 15, 2014 You could also be looking at the bow. Ah yes, true. I didn't even think about that. Three trips and the NCL ship has always been docked that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynbar Posted March 15, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Even if you end of facing the NCL ship, you can easily see left and right, over the harbor to Hamilton on one side and the pretty King's Wharf on the other. I don't think it's anything to worry about. Bermuda really does have one of the nicest docking views anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL... with watching the Web cam for Burmuda I aways see NCL turn around and Celebrity drive on out... And one time I went out on deck while on NCL and waved as the other ship passed us by, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's a different way of putting it. I like it! We pick cruises now based on aft availability. We have cruised aft every year since 2009.
