Does anyone know if there are any water sport rentals there - ie jet skis ?
Try Carnival's web site and click on shore excursions then HMC...All the info is there as to what they have and what you can do.....;)

Was there a SCUBA excursion available there??

 

We're going in July and, as of right now, there's no SCUBA excursion listed for HMC....

You might call HAL's excursion desk and ask them. I copied this list directly from our shore excursion form. We went in Feb. 2007, so maybe they've added Scuba to the excursions since we were there.

HAL stopped offering it in December 2006 partly due to poor customer feedback about the excursion. I don' think they have started offering that excursion there again.

Appreciate all your input, it really helps. Question...there are 6 of us renting the green cabana on 12-8 (Westerdam) and have paid for the 2 extra folks for a total of $339.00. Reading the reviews of the butler package we are considering upgrading to this. But, it seems it would be $470.00 for the 6 of us - a bit heavy I feel. Could it be a $100 a couple vs each? If it is the 'each' charge, is it worth it?

Thanks,

Rex

I am sure the butler upgrade is also per person, but it does seem high. Still, it's cheaper than getting a second cabana and butler upgrade.

 

As for it being worth it, we thought so, but just having the cabana is really what's nice. Either way, you'll love having the cabana and you'll love HMC. It's a beautiful island. :)

Thank you. It's our friends very first cruise, so we can probably convince them!

Thanks twinkeltoes and Scubajim.

 

I'm actually booked on Carnival, so I called their excursion people and, well, they weren't much help. She said "we recently stopped offering that excursion, but we hope to have it back in time for your cruise" (yeah, right..)

 

No biggie. We'll rent a cabana and get drunk that day:D

 

Thanks again for the responses. ;)
