Starboard vs port side

[bulldogz]

We are sailing on the EOS out of Cape Liberty on July 31 on the 9 night to Bermuda and Caribbean. Anyone know what side is best to see the city and islands? Trying to decide which side balcony is best.

When we sailed, a port side or aft stateroom had the best view of the city at sailaway.

'Usually', the Explorer docks in Bermuda with the Port side facing the town. That said, sometimes they go in the other way if they have some training or maintenance to do in port.

 

As far as watching the port/city going in or out of port, we usually watch from the top deck so we don't miss anything....

Go up to the "Viking Crown Lounge" on deck 14 and you'll have a spectacular unobstructed view of starboard and port, plus the ship's top decks. Comfortable seating, air conditioning and great drinks are available. The lounge is usually not very crowded; the mid-ship port elevators are the only means of access.
