nevergrow'nup Posted March 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have read where they were not able to stop for great stirrup cay due to weather. What do they do instead? Is it just another sea day or go somewhere else? Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon1 Posted March 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I really wouldn't concern myself with that problem. As with any of the other private islands it only occurs about 20% of the time, The odds are in your favor. Approach GSC with a positive attitude, and you will make your stop.

riclop Posted March 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 25, 2014 It gets skipped alot and they just go to Miami at a very slow speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormynow Posted March 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 26, 2014 We have missed GSC about 50% of the times on the schedule. Maybe just our bad luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we got to the island (the weather was STUNNINGLY beautiful) the young man and young lady who took care of the cabanas said we were the first in two weeks to stop because the weather was horrible.

kdawg954 Posted March 26, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 26, 2014 It sucks to miss the Private Island. Usually at a port I'm doing some sort of excursion that doesn't necessarily focus on the beach and it's a great perk on this Divina cruise that the final day you just get a Private Island day where you can truly relax before going home the next day. But yea, it's pretty unpredictable. If the weather is bad, you aren't tendering over. Happens to all tender stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevergrow'nup Posted March 26, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Thanks for the answers!! Didn't know if they would go somewhere else or just move slow. Would love the stop but fine with staying onboard :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
American Bear Posted March 26, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Thanks for the answers!! Didn't know if they would go somewhere else or just move slow. Would love the stop but fine with staying onboard :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app What everyone said is true about the Divina, because the private island is last! A great way to end your trip, as long as the weather is good! We had a cruise a couple years ago on another line where bad weather caused us to miss a private island tender stop, but since we were scheduled for Nassau the next day, the Captain said we'd go there early! We stayed there for 2 days instead of one because they had a pier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon1 Posted March 26, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 26, 2014 No one can predict the weather on the day you visit. It is what it is. If you encounter bad weather, it's not MSC's fault. Don't let it ruin your cruse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
