Dock or Tender at Jewel ports?

[JackieB]

Hello All,

 

Just wondering which ports are docked and which are tendered:

 

Roatan, Costa Maya, Belize and Great Stirrup Cay.

 

Thanks!

Roatan is normally docked (can only handle one ship at a time)

Costa Maya docked (can handle 3 ships)

It apparently depends when you go, too. For example, I'll be on the Jewel the week of Nov 29 and in the on my e-docs it states "anchor" or "dock" for each port. In the case of the Nov 29 sailing:

 

ROATAN, BAY ISLANDS, HONDURAS ARRIVE-ANCHOR 8:00 AM

BELIZE CITY, BELIZE ARRIVE-ANCHOR 8:00 AM

COSTA MAYA, MEXICO ARRIVE-DOCK 8:00 AM

GREAT STIRRUP CAY, BAHAMAS ARRIVE-ANCHOR 10:00 AM

Hi we just came off the Jewel Repo..We tendered in Samana, all other ports docked, with the Exception of Belize-- Tender. The tendering in Samana is a dinky speed boat!! Belize a little better.

 

Have a great cruise.
