8 ships at once in Cozumel!!

[Stefanosthecruiselover]

Will there be enough place for all of the ships? It might sound like a stupid question, but I have heard of ships not docking in Nassau, because there was no place left...There are going to be 8 ships while we are there in March!

We have been there when 12 ships were in port. 6 to 7 can port at the docks, the rest will tender in.:)

I thing on december or january, there will be 8 slots to dock ships at Cozumel, becuz Puerta Maya pier will have a 3rd one, I read in the newspaper they began to built it a month ago or so

This is actually quite normal for Cozumel. Cozumel itself is set up nicely to handle a big crowd and there's 3 docks in Cozumel (Punta Langosta, International and Puerta Maya). What ships don't get to dock, they will tender in, but are usually there right in port with the other ships. It's a "quick" tender unlike some of the other tender places in the Caribbean. No worries. :)

When we were in Cozumel on the NCL Dawn back in March 2014, there were +/- 10 ships. The only place you really saw the crowds (at least to us) were the shopping areas as you got off the ship. We ended up going way out of town on dune buggies, so the crowds did not affect.

It's a normal thing for Cozumel to have LOTS of cruise ships in port PLUS many land vacationers.

Go ahead with whatever you're planning to do there and don't worry about it. :)

As stated, if not enough dock space one or more ships may tender.

You should be fine. It is not unique for Cozumel to look like a cruise ship

parking lot. :)

 

If there is a specific tour or place you want to visit, you might consider reserving in advance of sailing so

what you want is not sold out.
