Krazy Kruizers Posted November 28, 2004 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2004 I was looking over the cruise calendar to determine how many ships will be in St Maarten on Jan 12 and discovered that right now there are a lot of ships scheduled to be in that port on the same day. Are either of you (Caribbean or Sun Princess) scheduled to be there that day? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted November 28, 2004 Author #2 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Caribbean & Sun passengers - are all you saying you won't be on St Maarten with 8 other ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvcruzin Posted November 29, 2004 #3 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I think you have to wait a bit for people to answer KK. Sure seems like a lot of ships that day but then it's Winter in the Carribean. Usually It's first come first serve to the pier and the rest have to tender.

Krazy Kruizers Posted November 29, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted November 29, 2004 The new pier holds only 4 ships. That means that 6 ships will have to tender. We have been there when there were 7 ships - 3 tendering. But never with 10. And it was very crowded everywhere with 7 ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted November 29, 2004 #5 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I have read a lot of comments lately about 6-7-8-10 ships being in St. Martin all at the same time. I think you are going to run into this problem in the Caribbean in the winter months quite often. Sorry! If I am not mistaken, they have 4 ships at the pier and the rest have to tender in. We have seen this many times before and it does make it quite crowded in port. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted November 29, 2004 Author #6 Share Posted November 29, 2004 We were in St Maarten last March when there were 7 ships there - not all big - 2 were small scooners. The biggest ship then was the Queen Mary 2. People were complaining about not being able to book tours either through the ship or on their own because the most popular tours were all sold out a couple of months in advance.

Krazy Kruizers Posted November 30, 2004 Author #9 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Looks as though it is going to be a very crowded day in St Maarten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
