Silhouette sunset veranda on deck 11. Overhang?

Am I seeing it correctly that all verandas have a step out balcony even after being revolutionized? Is paying extra for a sunset veranda on deck 11 worth it or is there an overhang? We are hoping to have full sun on our July sailing to Iceland. Bonus question for those who have been to Iceland before: is the view sailing into the ports better from a sunset veranda than a regular veranda port side? Thanks

You realize full sun is always dependent on time of day/direction of travel, right?  That said, most (60%?) is uncovered.  As for sailing into port, the approaches do not involve lengthy fjord type approaches (Akureyri is the longest, 15ish miles).  I feel either is fine.

Thank you for your response. Yes, I do realize that. I guess I should not have referenced “full sun”. I meant the potential for a sunny balcony, rather than mostly shade.  
Thank you for the info on the ports.  I guess I thought there would be fjord type approaches or the views we had on an Alaska cruise. I’m reading up on Iceland and the ports that we will visit, but my reading didn’t extend to what to expect was the ship enters port.
