tendering in question

[we3k9]

I had read in someones Carnival review that you get a choice of fast or slow tender into belize. someone said they tendered on a catamaran? could this be true? does carnival tander in to port on a cat? I would love this option. anyone know for sure ? :confused:

Hi,

 

Everytime I've been to Belize (on several different lines) they've all sorts of different vessels for the tendering. Some were faster than others - but none were particularly slow.

 

I beleive that it is some sort of agreement with the local authorities.

 

I do not believe you get a choice - howver I'm sure you could let people pass you in the line if you wanted to get on the "next" vessel.

 

There is a rumor floating around that carnival is planning on building a peir - but from what I understand due to its location in the SW corner of the Gulf sand tends to build up - hence the long tender ride.

I hope we can tender on the catamaran. Love those cats:) And we are in no hurry as we have no intention of booking an excurison at this port, we will just let the day take us!
