PBC29 Posted March 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 10, 2017 We've been to SJ many times before although always docked 8am-10am an left by 6pm. Just wondering as we'll probably use it as a relaxing day on a semi empty ship, what do people do at this stop with such a late port time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted March 10, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Find a sunset sail. There are several around, if you search via Google. Or take a leisurely stroll up to Plaza Colon and then down Forteleza or San Francisco and find a nice spot for dinner. Or see if Spoon Food Tours has an evening/dinner food tour.

OCruisers Posted March 10, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Gosh, we hate having a port stop there with this unfortunate timing. :( The last time it happened, we went to Senor Frogs for a while (sort of fun:beer-toast:) and returned to the ship about 8 o'clock for dinner.

Otterman34 Posted April 12, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 12, 2017 We use the later port time here to explore Old San Juan and have a wonderful dinner at a local restaurant. I know we "pay" for our dining on the ship, but the great local flavor and atmosphere make this a great thing for my family. We have had drinks at various places (Al Fresco's, Dragonfly) and then dinner at Aguaviva. Did this 3 times and have never been disappointed. The fact that they are on open table makes reserving very easy. For a larger party, I would call them directly. Whatever you choose.....have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PORT ROYAL Posted April 12, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 12, 2017 We've been to SJ many times before although always docked 8am-10am an left by 6pm. Just wondering as we'll probably use it as a relaxing day on a semi empty ship, what do people do at this stop with such a late port time. Easy Drinks/Cocktails at Mezzanine and enjoy their extended "happy hour", then take the 6 course wine pairing menu at Marmalade. Best to book Marmalade in advance as very popular with discerning locals and cruisers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssbeard1 Posted April 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted April 20, 2017 We have the same port times - :eek: I believe we are going to walk around town. Sunset cruise does sound interesting. What would be a good authentic restaurant suggestion other than Marmalades? We are looking for a simpler restaurant with local flavor - that maybe a sweaty body after a day of touring would not feel uncomfortable eating at. :halo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herfnerd Posted April 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I would say do a Bioluminescent Bay excursion but Fajardo is about an hour and a half from OSJ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leighuf Posted May 5, 2017 #8 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Go to Old San Juan, shop, check out the fort, and eat dinner. I recommend Rosa de Triana or Barrachinas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
