6805 Posted December 3, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 3, 2019 How crowded Does Perfect Day get with an Oasis class ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted December 3, 2019 #2 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Just one ship, even an oasis class ship is no problem for Coco Cay. With the pool, water park and all the beaches, people are all spread out m Edited December 3, 2019 by cruisegirl1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo16 Posted December 3, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Anybody been on the island with 2 ships? I’m sailing in August with Oasis and Majesty in port at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jptoz Posted December 3, 2019 #4 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Was there with Anthem and Majesty. Didn't think it was bad at all. Plenty of room/chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend your first stop be at the pool for a chair if you are a pool person. The pool area was quite crowded while there on Symphony but plenty of chairs at the beach.

There were people everywhere...but we were always able to find chairs when we wanted chairs. Even the food lines weren't bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfaeric Posted December 3, 2019 #8 Share Posted December 3, 2019 And I bet it will get less crowded once the South Beach area opens up- that's a huge beach space and what looks to be another place to eat/drink being added. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted December 3, 2019 #9 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Just go early. We got off around 9 or so, maybe a tad earlier, and were the only ones at the beach for quite some time. Almost nobody at the pool either. A couple hours later and much, much busier. But still never overcrowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can the pier support more than two ships? Do they still have the tenders there to possibly support a 3rd ship? 31 minutes ago, BNBR said: South Beach is partly open already. With RC's history the past couple of years, I only wonder about them spending millions (is it into the billions??) on a private island and then leave chairs empty.

Another_Critic Posted December 3, 2019 #12 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Was there last month with Grandeur and Anthem. Beautiful day, 80 degrees and sunny. Plenty of room at the beach and pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peacefrogdog Posted December 3, 2019 #13 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I'm on Indy that is docked at Coco Cay on the same day as Symphony. That's a lot of passengers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC has said that CocoCay was built with three ships in mind. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared2 Posted December 3, 2019 #16 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I was there on Rhapsody with the Navigator last month and it did not feel overcrowded at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISEFAN0001 Posted December 3, 2019 #17 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Two ships in when we were there a few weeks ago...NO CROWDING at all. Where are the MYTHBUSTERS when ya need them? The place is designed for more than 10K people...unless 2 Oasis class ships are there together (which doesn't happen)...CROWDING IS NOT A REAL THING.

But there were still chairs available and no wait to get food, so I guess it was really just busy, not crowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soremekun Posted December 3, 2019 #20 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Per http://crew-center.com/perfect-day-coco-cay-bahamas-cruise-ships-schedule-2020 February 5, 2020 - Oasis and Symphony will both be docked at Coco Cay. However, the February 1 sailing for Symphony sailing is not available via the Royal Caribbean website and the RCI app doesn't show the February 1 sailing. November 29, 2020 - Three ships in Coco Cay? I can't find the itinerary for Odyssey that visits Coco Cay on that day. I would love to see pictures of two Oasis class ships at Coco Cay and three ships docked there as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t forget that most of those port schedules only get updated once when the itineraries are released. Changes to the actual schedules are not always updated. Our March cruise on Anthem still has us in port with a Navigator yet her itinerary was changed over 6 months ago. For the Feb 5 date the ships appear to be chartered that week as you can’t actually get sailings on Royals website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many theme parks in Orlando are designed for thousands of people and yet somehow everyone is still standing in lines for hours at the more popular attractions while there are no lines at others........... I'm fairly certain pretty soon you'll start to see complaints about how long it takes to get a drink, chairs next to the pool, etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lines are inevitable any place more than 10 people congregate let alone thousands. Coco Cay had more than 7K on the day we were there recently- no sign of crowding at all...and the longest line was for the tall slides in the Thrill Waterpark...ranging from 10-35 minutes. Nothing to fret about. Edited December 3, 2019 by CRUISEFAN0001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
