PLEASE UPDATE THIS LIST AS YOU GO ALONG BECAUSE ANYONE WITH A WALKING PROBLEM NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THE WALK NECESSARY TO GET TO THE DUFRYAND EXCURSION FOLKS.



Grand Cayman - tender to the pier and then it is probably 150 yards to the gates - - mostly up hill.

Belize City - tender to the pier and maybe a 100 yards to the gates

Cozumel - could be up to 200 yards from the ship - - BUT there are pedi-cabs available for a donation

Roatan - 100 yards to DUFRY and DUFRY is about 200 feet long then there is a 100 yard, uphill climb to the shopping and excursion area. Wheelchairs service can be provided for a donation from the excursion meet area back to the ship by contacting Security (people in white).

San Juan - ships park right next to DUFRY and it is about 200 feet to the street.

Nassau - the ships tie up all along the pier and it could be quite a distance - - BUT there is a free shuttle (about a 15 person golf cart) to the DUFRY - -be patient and wait on it.

Half Moon Cay - - tender to the pier, then

then there’s a long walk down a dirt road to the pavilions and beach that have all the BBQ and there is a wrecked ship made into a bar with music, right on the edge of the beach. Not good for scooter or wheelchair transport.

GRAND TURK - ship ties outboard to the pier and the walk is 500 to 600 yards to the DUFRY. Once there the walk to the excursion could be another two hundred yards.

SAINT THOMAS - walk to the DUFRY is approximately 300 yards. If you are getting on a boat the walk could possibly be another two to three hundred yards.

AMBER COVE - the walk from the ship to the main area is at least a half a mile

- - BUT there are pedi-cabs available for a donation. Accessible via wheelchair and scooter.
