Seven Ships In Port !!!!

[justsaygo]

O.K. We are 1st time cruisers and I have been all over these boards for the last few weeks learning stuff. I discovered "cruise calendar" and was mortified when I saw 7 ships in port while we are trying to see Grand Cayman. We are only in port from 7 to 2. The plan was to shore snorkel on our own and walk around the shops for a little while before returning to the ship. Will this still work? Any other ideas besides staying on the ship??? :confused:

You'll be fine if that's your plan. The stores might be a little crowded, but you'll still have a good time.

You are OK if the vessels dock in George Town, just allow a good hour to get back on board.

 

If the weather is bad, as it has been the past couple of days, and you end up moored off Spotts I would stay on board. You might have no trouble getting into George Town but, if the traffic starts to back up, it's a long ride back to the dock.

 

Incidentally, the government were supposed to have capped cruise arrivals at 6 per day.

When we were in GC on 2/7 I believe there were 6 or 7 ships in also, and we didn't think it was unbearably crowded, and we really enjoyed our day.

Thanks for all your responses. I'll just hope for the best ... after all anything is better than being at work!
