Overnight in 3 tender ports...any idea how long tenders operate in the evening??

1st time NCL cruiser. However, I've never had an overnight in a port that was serviced by tenders on any cruise line so wondered how this works. I'm assuming they operate until some specified hour by which you must be back on board? Or end up sleeping on the beach...

It's going to depend on the port.

Also the weather.

 

The ship might also plan to sail away overnight to open the casino.

From last week's experience on the Star, on the first day in Dun Laoghaire, tenders ran until 8.00pm (I think), then started at 7.00am the following morning. I know some people did stay overnight in Dublin.

I spent the night in Dublin last week on the Star.  It allowed me to start the 2nd day earlier than the tenders.  Yes, it was an extra expense, but worth it to me. Enjoyed the night life also.

Thanks, I am thinking of doing that in Bora Bora.

 

Did you have to notify any ship personnel before doing that?

No.  I packed a go bag and simply returned the next evening.
