spongerob Posted August 13, 2010 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I've tried Google maps and a couple of other sources but can't quite pin down the map location of the Royal Naval Dockyard in Bermuda, where we are (hopefully) going to dock while on CB this fall. Can someone give me the location of the dock, please, and thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davy jones Posted August 13, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2010 It is at the far west tip of the island(s). You might also want to try googling king wharf (the pier name), or Bermuda maritime museum, which is located there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_crusin Posted August 13, 2010 #4 Share Posted August 13, 2010 It's sometimes called the Royal Naval Dockyard or Kings Wharf. We have docked at three different locations in Bermuda; Hamilton, St George and Kings Wharf. I believe it depends on the traffic and the size of the ship. There is a water taxi between the dock and Hamilton or plenty of Taxis will be available. There are a few shops, restaurants and a musuem in the immediate area.

Cuizer2 Posted August 13, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Now is this really the best place to park a ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davy jones Posted August 13, 2010 #8 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I'm not sure about the last one, particularly if the ship is flying the jolly roger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spongerob Posted August 15, 2010 Author #10 Share Posted August 15, 2010 That helps greatly, thanks. Moving the thread about a Princess cruise did not. Thanks mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted August 15, 2010 #11 Share Posted August 15, 2010 from the posted Dockyard map looks like a long walk from the ship to the main part of the area.. is it? are there complimentary shuttles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailBadtheSinner Posted August 15, 2010 #12 Share Posted August 15, 2010 If you are referring to walking in the Dockyard, it is not a long walk to anywhere there. Look at the pix posted by CC member Cuizer2 in this thread. The pix is old but everything is still there plus there is a road train (shuttle) that you can ride from point to point. If you are referring to walking to Hamilton, the bus ride from the Dockyard to Hamilton is over an hour; ferry does the same trip in about 25 minutes. Bermuda has an excellent public transportation system. SBtS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
