Help!!!! Will I have Enough Time for St. John's Coming Off the NCL Getaway?

[excitedtocruise]

Hi everyone, here's my plan....

Arrive from the NCL Getaway, get off ship approximately 8 - 8:15, grab a cab to Red Hook, take the 9 a.m. ferry to Cruz Bay, take taxi to Trunk Bay, leave Trunk Bay at 1:00, (should have a good 3 hours at Trunk Bay) go to Cruz Bay, grab the 2 p.m. ferry to Red Hook, take taxi to Havensight Port, board NCL Getaway. All aboard is 3:30 p.m. I know it sounds exhausting, but we really want to get to St. John's!!! Is this doable?

Yes, the 1PM ferry from Cruz would be more conservative but you will be fine leaving Trunk early enough to see a little of Cruz and get in line so as not to miss that ferry.

Great day that!:)

We are on same ncl getaway and plan on doing the St. John on our own. I wish ship was there till 6 pm.

Well Bestbeaches it is good to know that we might not be the only ones running for the ship at the last minute!!!!

Have plan b figured out.....if you hit some sort of delay on the road running might not be enough.....I am planning the same thing in a couple of weeks and it would be AWFUL to be stranded on stj......NOT......lol.....

LOL :p

 

The nice thing about this option is if you are delayand cause of a late arrival or problems disembarking and decide not to take the ferry to STJ, gorgeous Sapphire beach is right up the hill from Red Hook.

I have spent quite a few weeks on stj over the years....our paradise.....I cruise now and then to be with family and have enjoyed sapphire and secret harbour but my heart is in stj...
