When to arrive at Nellie’s beach?

[vacationlover_mn]

I want a front row seat at Nellie’s Beach.  How early should I get there?  I can pay for an umbrella upon arrival, right?

I would get in line to the exit stairs about 20-30 min before anticipated ship  clearance to let passengers off.

 

I do not know why it takes a little time on the private beach locale, but it is what it is.

 

( The time Usually posted in cruise compass the day before the port).

 

We were in a suite and were able to meet in the bar area next to the comedy club on Allure and we were lead to the front of the line at the exit closest to shore.  All others were just a minute or two behind us.

 

Others were exiting from the other exit further back on the ship at the same time.

 

I would not wait for the ferry to fill, I would make the 12 min walk straight to Nellies to get your loungers.

 

Good luck.
