Montykins Posted March 24, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Our ship arrives at 2:30pm and leaves at 11:00pm and our excursion goes from 2:45 to 8:30pm. Does anyone know what time the stores usually close? We would love to get some shopping in before we leave but not sure if anything will be open. Thanks!

1025cruise Posted March 24, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 24, 2019 The "recommended" stores will be open if a ship is in port. Some of the locals might stay open later for the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Crew News Posted March 25, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The Glacier Smoothie Soap on the pier store opens at 10:00 AM and closes at 6:00 PM so you will miss their amazing handmade glacier silt soap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1025cruise Posted March 25, 2019 #5 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Keep in mind the "recommended" stores are the ones you see in all ports. Not where I would be doing my shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, last time I was in Juneau, they were closed (Sunday). In a short cruising season, it makes no business sense to me to be closed on any day of the week.

The current owner's husband died several years ago and as a Mormon minister family, the store has never been open on Sundays. I have been purchasing soap at the Glacier Smoothie shop every year since 2008 and really respect the resolve it took to keep the small shop open for so long.
