Tender times for Jade? And anyone use Shorefox

[jeo_la]

We are cruising on the Jade the week after Christmas and was looking to book excursions through Shorefox, does anyone who has recently cruised on the Jade have some info/Intel on the ability to tender first thing, we are all early risers, but what time do we need to be in line to get off the boat as soon as we can.

 

Also does anyone have any experience using Shorefox, their reviews on their site look good -- but I trust cruise critic reviews more

 

Thanks !

Which port would this be? All NCL excursions are first off of the ship. Of course, if you are in a suite, you have priority, as well. Otherwise, you have to receive a tender ticket. The Freestyle Daily will tell you when you receive tickets.

From what I gather from reviewers we will tender at Roatan and Belize

Thanks!

99.9% of the time Roatan is NOT a tender port. The ship docks in Coxen Hole.

The Jade is never scheduled to dock in Roatan. We were lucky last week and were able to dock for 1 hour and then tender back. The Dawn has priority and will be docking most every week. Some weeks, there will be 3 ships to include Royal Caribbean. Then both NCL ships have to tender and if there are high winds, only half of the pier is available for the tender lifeboats.

 

Tendering in Belize is easy since there are company's with large tender boats.
