ssmith468 Posted March 30, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Hello All, My boyfriend and I will be traveling on the Explorer in June and we will be stopping at Coco Cay. Since there isn't really much to do at that port I figured he would probably love to hit a few golf balls around in the sand. Has anyone ever brought a club on board? Do you know if this is okay? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I doubt it will be a problem to bring a golf club onboard, but - though I´ve never been to Coco Cay, I can hardly see someone hitting a few golf balls around on a beach with thousands fellow cruisers around.

cruiselovincouple Posted March 30, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 30, 2010 My brother and hubby brought their full sets of golf clubs aboard before, lots of avid golfers do so they can do the golfing shore excursions. On every cruise I've been on I've seen people hauling their golf clubs through the check-in line. Seems to be a pretty normal occurrence. ~Lisa :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterPan Posted March 30, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 30, 2010 We had a wood carving confiscated during our cruise to Hawaii. It was returned to us at the end of the cruise, but they deemed it could be used as a weapon. :eek: That being said, I think it depends on the security folks on the ship as to what is OK and what isn't. Here is a short clip from the RCI website, and I have highlighted a couple of things: The following are examples of items that guests are not allowed to bring onboard. These and other similar items will be confiscated upon being found. Alcoholic beverages, illegal drugs, flammable liquids, explosives, and dangerous chemicals will not be returned. Firearms & Ammunition, including realistic replicas. *Sharp Objects, including knives and scissors. Illegal Drugs & Substances Candles & Incense Coffee Makers, Clothes Irons, & Hot Plates Baseball Bats, Hockey Sticks, Cricket Bats, Bows & Arrows Skateboards & Surfboards Martial Arts Gear Self-Defense Gear, including handcuffs, pepper spray, night sticks. Flammable Liquids and Explosives, including lighter fluid and fireworks. HAM Radios Dangerous Chemicals, including bleach and paint. **Alcoholic Beverages Note: *Personal grooming items such as safety razors are allowed. Scissors with blade length less than 4 inches are allowed.** Alcoholic beverages that are purchased in ports-of-call or from shops onboard will be stored by the ship and delivered to you on the last day of the sailing. Alcoholic beverages seized on embarkation day will not be returned. How much different is a hockey stick and a golf club? Just one more of those things that can be open to interpretation!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted March 30, 2010 #6 Share Posted March 30, 2010 If you just bring one club, it will probably be thought of as a weapon--if you bring all of your clubs, they'll think you're going to play golf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, however there isn't a course on CocoCay so they may not be able to carry the clubs off the ship. ### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
